Every once in a while, someone will mail me a single popcorn kernel that didn't pop. I'll get out a fresh kernel, tape it to a piece of paper and mail it back to them.
Orville Redenbacher I had popcorn all over the place, so I decided I might as well be in the Processing Business. Orville Redenbacher I moved to Princeton, Indiana, and became a professional Farm Manager for that Princeton Farms. Orville Redenbacher I opened an office in Terre Haute, established eight of them, and became one of the eight county agents. Orville Redenbacher In the Depression we had to divert corn acreage. Orville Redenbacher It proved easier to buy the farm to get the mineral rights than to buy the coal rights alone. Orville Redenbacher It was necessary to have an even depth of corn on the top compared to the sides, so the air would not take the easiest route and not evenly dry the stored corn. Orville Redenbacher Most of the competition was into bulk popcorn because of the major increases in the Drive-In Theatre Outlets. Orville Redenbacher The cobs were delivered to a big pile. We were one of the first to feed corn cobs to cattle. Orville Redenbacher The other Processors sold inferior corn in the consumer package because many consumer buyers were only interested in a good price. Orville Redenbacher The quality sold in the amusement business did not measure up, and that is how we got into the package business with our superior product. Orville Redenbacher We dried continuously day and night. We had no efficient way to do it, so we built this new popcorn plant. Orville Redenbacher We got to know the competition very well. In the '50s popcorn made a big growth in sales. Our main push was to produce the best quality and sell in quality retail outlets. Orville Redenbacher We made more money feeding molasses, urea, and corn cobs to cattle than we ever did feeding dent corn. Orville Redenbacher |
