Bob: Hormel is big in chili. IMO current the best way to sell CPB and please most shareholders is piece meal. Hypothetically Kraft/Heinz buying the biggest piece. K - buying Synergistic Synder Lance brands/Diamond foods part. This part of Lances past acquisition. Nestles IMO would be interested in parts.
Ironically Dan Loeb owns both Nestles & CPB

Iconic maker of Spam, Hormel reported good earnings. I expect them as well as other big food users of food commodities to be on the acquisition trail again. Food input costs have come down dramatically, directly & indirectly. I added Hains Celestial to my watch list today.

The Hain Celestial Group, Inc. (HAIN)


P.S. My father didn't cook to often. One of the things he made my brother & I. A fried SPAM sandwich with egg. Yumm! However it's been over 40 years since I've had one.
