Artifact Overview

After finding success with the development of processed cheese in 1915, the J.L. Kraft and Bros. Co. began acquiring companies to diversify its product offerings.

The company known as Kraft-Phenix, acquired in 1928, introduced its Kraft Mayonnaise in 1930, and a similar product, Miracle Whip, in 1933, often offering recipes to highlight each product's unique taste.
