Hellman’s
How delicious is Hellman’s mayonnaise? You most likely have purchased a jar of the good stuff at least once this month. Richard Hellmann took the American public’s tastebuds by storm when he imported the French sauce in 1905. His shop became so overrun by mayonnaise fiends that it wasn’t long before this was his sole item on sale. Best Foods acquired the company in 1932 and carried it from strength to strength until the end of the century. Unilever then took over in 2000 at a skyrocketing $20.3 billion purchase. For just some mayonnaise, that is an incredible amount of money.
