Popsicle
The recipe for the popsicle was created by an 11-year old boy from Oakland, California after he forgot his drink outside with a stick in it for an entire night. After retrieving it the following day, he found his glass to be frozen solid. As the boy grew up, he introduced the concept to the world, and it became an instant hit! He later regrets his decision of selling the rights to Joe Lowe in 1925, saying that he has not been the same since. In 1989, the company was purchased by its former rival company, Good Humor.

Purina
Purina started in 1894 when George Robinson, William H. Danforth, and William Andrews began to feed farm animals, and they were unaware that what they were doing would make them very rich. Despite Nestle being more known for its food items than their pet products, the Swiss company bought Purina for $10.3 billion in December of 2011. The decision was made due to the conclusion of merging Purina and Friskies Petcare. Purina is not only a household staple in the United States but the whole world as well.
