Talk:Nabisco

Untitled

formerly sold as the "Lanes" brand are also now branded Nabisco. This happened after Kraft Foods Inc.'s purchase of Australian biscuit producer Lane Food Group, which had previously licensed products from Nabisco. E.g. Premium crackers and the "In a Biskit" products which were sold in Australia under the Lanes brand. Oreos on the other hand, have always been sold as Nabisco brand in Australia.

History Clean up

The history section isn't in chronological order, it jumps all around. This ought to be cleaned up by someone more knowledgable than me of the history. Capmango 20:46, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

The history is incorrect on the company's founding. I'll correct to reflect role played by William Henry "Judge" Moore.SLY111 (talk) 18:20, 17 September 2009 (UTC)SLY111

Nabisco sold as Christie in Canada - too general.

WRT the merger history section - not all products from Nabisco are sold under the Christie brand in Canada. Breakfast cereals were (still are?) sold as Nabisco products. I only associate Christie with cookies and such (as the adverts say "Mr. Christie, you make good cookies") --Michael Daly (talk) 06:57, 17 December 2007 (UTC)

wtf?

I may be unusually simple, but can someone expand or explain this (The company also became embroiled in a July 2008 suit concerning a copyright infringement, as many parties were using the word "Nabisco" as code for an upcoming statement with guaranteed veracity) sentence so that is has some valuable verifiable meaning or context?

Merge

I suggest we merge Nabisco Brands, Inc. into this article; i realise that it came from here originally, but it seems to be mostly duplication at the moment, with relatively little in the other article strictly about its subject ~ much of it is about the history of the assorted companies and brands, which properly belongs here. Cheers, Lindsay^Hi 09:18, 22 December 2008 (UTC)

Since there's no discussion/disapproval, i'm being bold and doing the merger. I don't think i'm losing information; if i have lost any, please put it back, or tell me, & i will. Cheers, Lindsay^Hi 07:25, 14 February 2009 (UTC)

Actually, i'm wrong; there was quite a long list of products that Nabisco made/makes at the NB,I page; i find lists less than helpful, usually, in encyclopædia articles, but i recognise that they have their place, so if anyone wants to and finds a way to incorporate it here, he can find the whole list here.

"Favourite"

Somehow I think if Nabisco's slogan is "America's Favourite Food Company!" they're not going to spell "favorite" with a 'u', just because of Wikipedian editorial pretensions. One of you editors might want to go in there and fix that, huh? ""User: Me""

Nabisco Thing

I feel like we should have extended coverage of the Nabisco Thing/Man/Dude. There is a discussion taking place here: http://bostonfixed.us/forum/comments.php?DiscussionID=3569
Maybe we can find public domain resources? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.208.43.189 (talk) 13:34, 27 March 2010 (UTC)

Cleanup tag

For an article about one of the world's major corporations, this article is woefully substandard. Huge amount of unfootnoted claims, including statements attributed to living individuals without citation, a mess of a reference and EL section, skimpiness, and an organizational layout that could stand improvement. I'm stretched a little thin right now, but until I can swing back and help, I wanted other editors to know the reason for this tag. --Tenebrae (talk) 17:26, 14 March 2011 (UTC)

Divestitures

The corporate chronology is missing information on divestitures by Nabisco. Stevenmitchell (talk) 22:59, 6 May 2011 (UTC)

Mexico

Now made in Mexico. Why is this not mentioned? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 184.155.134.43 (talk) 01:18, 3 March 2015 (UTC) Probably not mentioned because whomever is in charge of this wiki is evil. To the core of their bones. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.237.6.114 (talk) 04:50, 24 October 2015 (UTC)

Uneeda

Uneeda redirects here, but currently this page has no information about Uneeda biscuits. I understand these are an early example of a nationwide brand and advertising campaign. I'd be interested in info on the topic from someone knowledgeable. 68.205.70.175 (talk) 04:46, 21 January 2023 (UTC)
