Did you know the Ritz Cracker was invented in Jackson? Kowalski invented Hunter Sausage? Join authors Gail Offen and Jon Milan as they reveal secrets and fun surprises from their latest book Classic Michigan Food and Drinks: The Stories Behind The Brands, (History Press, 2024).Sure, Michigan invented ready-to-eat cereal (Kelloggs and Post) and baby food (Gerber) but there are many stories most Michiganders don't know, such as that Better Made uses Michigan potatoes, Germack brought the first pistachios to America, and we are the pickle-growing capital of the U.S.
Join the pair as they “dish” on Michigan delights of all kinds. Participation is included with museum admission, and books will be available for sale and signing. Register at: https://bit.ly/4tB1B1a
