  • Betty Crocker First Lady of Food
    Famous Food Icons Betty Crocker First Lady of Food Alison L. Eldridge, PhD, RD Suzanne C. Goodsell he is recognized by millions from the cookbooks that grace our kitchens and the cake mixes that S have helped us celebrate our lives. To many, Betty Crocker seems as familiar as a friend. We were raised on her recipes and enjoy the convenience of her Helpers, mixes, and frostings even today. Although she never was a real person, this American icon was ‘‘born’’ in 1921 and since then has become synonymous with helpfulness, trustworthiness, and quality in the kitchen. Who would believe Betty Crocker is 85 years old! Betty is Born The idea for Betty Crocker began with a Gold Medal 1955 flour promotion published in the Saturday Evening Post in 1921. Washburn Crosby Company, the forerunner of General Mills, offered consumers a flour sack pin cushion for correctly completing a jigsaw puzzle depicting a milling scene. Surprisingly, 30,000 finished puzzles were returned, along with hundreds of letters asking questions about baking. A savvy in-house advertising director leaped at the opportunity, convincing company leaders to invent a friendly woman to personally reply to each customer inquiry. The name ‘‘Betty’’ was chosen because it sounded friendly and wholesome. ‘‘Crocker’’ was added in honor of a recently retired director, William G. Crocker. To develop the distinctive Betty Crocker signature, an informal contest was held among female employees. The winning entry remains the basis of today’s Betty Crocker signature. Betty Crocker’s name was first used in print advertisements and on letters offering cooking and baking advice and then for company-sponsored regional cooking schools.

  • Oral History Interview with Charles H. Bell Minnesota Historical Society

The interview was recorded in the Governor's Room of the Minneapolis Club in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The principal interviewer is James P. Shannon, former head of the General Mills Foundation, the Minneapolis Foundation, and of the National Council on Foundations. Also present at the interview were Nina Archabal, director of the Minnesota Historical Society, David Hartwell, head of Bellcomb Technologies Incorporated and the Belwin Foundation (and grandson of Charles Bell), David S. Wiggins, program manager at the Society's St. Anthony Falls Historic Site, and James E. Fogerty, head of the Society's Acquisitions & Curatorial Department. Fogerty recorded the interview. Bell JS: I was wondering about the correlative advantages of the radio station. I'm thinking this is the time of Sam Gale as a sales representative for General Mills. H. CB: Advertising. JS: There had been no advertising on radio before that, and I can remember--I was actually singing a jingle to myself in the car coming downCharles from home this morning. I think it was the first radio commercial that I can remember, thoughSociety maybe not the first one I've heard. We had one of these Philco radio sets that was called the cathedral type, it looks like a stained-glass window or a gothic arch.with The jingle was, "Won't you try Wheaties, the best breakfast food in the land. Won't you try Wheaties, Skippy never tires of them and neither will you, so just try Wheaties." That was new territory in sales, in advertising.
