8 Beloved Food Brands With More Than 1 Name

The only thing that separates Hellmann's and Best Foods is the Rocky Mountain range! Hellmann's began in New York City in the early 1900s and was acquired by Postum Foods (which later became Best Foods) in 1927. For 90 years, the company (now owned by megacorporation Unilever) sells the same delicious product as Hellman's to the east of the Rockies and Best Foods to the west.
