[Michlib-l] Upcoming In Person Event at the Baldwin Public Library: Classic Michigan Food and Drinks: The Stories Behind the Brands

[Mick Howey]

Hello Michlib!

Please join us at 7:00 PM, Monday, September 8th as we welcome the return
of the  authors of Classic Michigan Food and Drink: The Stories Behind The
Brands Gail Offen and Jon Milan.

Did you know the Ritz Cracker was invented in Jackson? Classic Michigan
Food and Drink: The Stories Behind The Brands is full of amazing stories
and photos about the many Michigan food and drink brands we know and love.
Sure, Michigan invented ready-to-eat cereal (Kelloggs) and baby food
(Gerber) --but there are stories most Michiganders don't know, such as
Germack was the first company in America to import pistachios, Better Made
uses Michigan potatoes, and we are the pickle-growing capital of the U.S.
Gail Offen & Jon Milan return to  dish on  pop, cookies, pies, etc--and of
course, fudge and pasties. If you’re a fan of brands like Sanders, Faygo,
Vernors, Guernsey, and Jiffy— or have fond memories of brands like Awrey’s
and Twin Pines— you’ll eat up this show!

Registration required. This is an in person event.
