  • 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.
