Artifact Overview

After making a name for itself with the development of processed cheese in 1915, the J.L. Kraft and Bros. Co. began acquiring additional companies to diversify its product offerings. Among these acquisitions were several companies specializing in mayonnaise. In 1930, the Kraft-Phenix Cheese Company (as it was known after 1928) introduced Kraft Mayonnaise, and provided homemakers with recipes for using this product.
