  • ON NOVEMBER 30, 1928, a New Company Was Listed on the New York Stock Exchange
    ON NOVEMBER 30, 1928, a new company was listed on the New York Stock Exchange. Formed through the merger of several regional milling companies, General Mills would grow to become one of the largest food companies in the world. To mark that 75th anniversary, this book celebrates 75 years of innovation, invention, food and fun – both inside and outside the kitchen – in America and around the world. PROLOGUE 1 PROLOGUE It would be difficult to capture our rich history in a thousand pages. There are simply too many stories to tell. But this opportunity only comes once – and we couldn’t let it pass. On the 75th anniversary of the creation of General Mills – in our 137th year as a company – we wanted to pause to commemorate at least some of the historical highlights of a great American company. But where to start? With the creation of General Mills in 1928? Or at the beginning, on the banks of the Mississippi River in 1866? And what of the many companies with which General Mills has been intertwined? What of Pillsbury and Green Giant? What of Kenner and Parker Brothers, Red Lobster and Burger King? What of the products we invented together and the brands we built together? It was simple really. Pillsbury’s history is our history. Green Giant, Old El Paso, Colombo and Häagen-Dazs are here – alive within General Mills. Of the rest we chose to include a little of each, because they too are a part of us. And while we take no credit for the success they enjoy today, we are proud to have shared the same path for at least part of our shared history.

  • Suggested Peanut/Nut-Free Snacks
    October 2020 Allergies At the beginning of the school year, parents will be asked to fill out a form listing the allergy or allergies of each student. The information will be shared with the teachers and any medication will be kept in the office. If a student has a severe allergy the parents will specify protocol on what to do in the event of a reaction and provide at least two epi-pens to be kept in strategic places. Peanut-Free Policy Saint Thomas School recognizes that peanut allergies represent a health and safety hazard, the consequences of which can be serious. For purposes of this policy, “Peanuts” will mean all nuts and peanuts including products that use or contain nuts and peanuts, or use peanut oils. Due to Saint Thomas School’s participation in the Federal Lunch Program, we cannot make our lunch room completely peanut-free, however, peanut products will not be allowed anywhere else in the school buildings. When sending any snacks to school, please check the labels to ensure they are free of nuts and processed in a nut-free facility. Saint Thomas School has adopted this policy in regards to food allergies, but peanut butter will still be served in the cafeteria. Students are still welcome to pack food products containing peanuts/tree nuts for their own individual lunches. Students with food allergies will continue to sit in a designated peanut-free zone in the school cafeteria. Student Birthdays and Classroom Parties Students can bring in treats for a birthday or for classroom parties, as long as these treats are in compliance with the peanut-free list, or are explicitly listed as “school-safe” or not processed in a facility that also processes peanuts or tree nuts.

Campbell family brands’ Labels for Education has been awarding free educational equipment to schools in exchange for proofs of purchase from Campbell brand items for more than 30 years. It’s an easy program whereby Moose members clip labels from eligible Campbell products and redeem them for points toward equipment for Mooseheart. Through the efforts of Lodges and Chapters all over the country, Mooseheart has accumulated 173,709 points toward awards that may include televisions, sports equipment, computers, musical instruments and books.
