kettle , which makes gourmet style crisps , nuts and tortilla chips , was founded in oregon , u . s . , in 1978 .
there was a deliberate decision to put the innovation center here , part of it being the history of innovation at kettle ,
mensch said , noting that diamond foods actually is headquartered in san francisco .
innovation is in its heart blood . we wanted to bring that to all the other brands .
by late 2005 , kettle foods chips had acquired 52 percent of the market share of the “salty snack” category in natural food stores , but only 1 percent of that market in all u . s . food stores . in early 2006 , the company hired two executives with experience at starbucks , frito - lay , and pepsi . within three years , kettle foods had captured 18 percent of the u . s . market share in the “premium potato chip” category . in 1982 , the company made $ 3 million in sales ; by 2008 , sales were $ 235 million . the company employed about 300 people in salem in 2006 .
recognizing a market for his chips in the united kingdom , healy began production in norwich , england , in february 1989 ; by june , u . k . sales were 10 percent of the company’s total . kettle foods opened factories in vancouver , b . c . , in 1989 and springfield , ohio , in 2001 .
kettle foods began in 1978 in salem with cameron healy , who took out a $ 10 , 000 bank loan to found company n . s . khalsa and produce nut and trail mixes . healy turned to potato chips in 1982 , producing them from oregon russet burbank potatoes and pushing a less - processed variety than competitors .
when kettle foods began producing kettle chips in salem in 1982 , the company was making the only all - natural , hand - cooked potato chips in the western united states . the company quickly established a standard that evolved into a trend - setting , multi - million - dollar segment of the potato chip industry . founder cameron healy said he had
no master plan , ” but he “wanted to develop products of natural integrity
and “take natural foods to the world . ” by 2011 , with its signature line of potato chips , the company had acquired a strong and growing international market share and had become a supporter for social and environmental causes .

“until now , we’ve only been trading with the kettle brand , but together with snyder’s - lance , we want to develop a much larger snack portfolio .
to take advantage of some of the benefits that smaller brands generate , large cpgs can either build or buy their way to faster growth . consider artisan chips — high - end potato chips cooked in small batches — a category dominated by two small players : cape cod and kettle chips . frito - lay entered this category with lay’s kettle cooked , positioning the product as a lower - priced alternative to cape cod and kettle products and as a healthier way to enjoy lay’s potato chips . lay’s “category captain” position in traditional flat potato chips gave frito - lay the power to influence product placement in grocery stores and supermarkets . and with that advantage , in 2015 sales of lay’s kettle cooked chips hit $ 368 million , outstripping cape cod potato chips’ sales of $ 225 million , and kettle brand’s $ 181 million .

one blogger , steve wilson , wrote to the firm :
i am disgusted that kettle chips is engaged in union - busting activities , including non - disclosure to its own employees about the anti - union stance of the supposedly impartial consultancy company omega training .
our italian roots inspired this chip cooked in 100 % pure olive oil for a rich , aromatic flavor . made with premium american grown potatoes from an original family recipe , they’re kettle cooked in small batches , thickly sliced , deliciously seasoned and satisfyingly . . .
as a result , the brothers decided to develop their own snack brand by creating a kettle - cooked chip that was thicker than traditional varieties . so , in 1983 , bob’s texas style potato chips was born . after only three years , the chips became so popular with consumers that the brothers sold the business to a partner , moved to arizona and launched the poore brothers brand . starting with only a single kettle and one delivery truck , they relied on sampling and word - of - mouth advertising to grow the business .

and the winner . here is greasy , crunchy proof that doing weird stuff with chips can pay off . they’re tangy , they’re innovative and weirdest of all , whatever kettle put on them tastes exactly like pepperoncini . all hail pepperoncini , king of the chip flavors .
healy opened a 25 , 000 - square - foot plant in july 1982 in downtown salem , where the company established a process that was a return to early twentieth - century methods : cooking individual batches of thin - sliced potatoes in vats of hot oil . in 1988 , he changed his company ' s name to kettle foods . the company’s manufacturing process uses safflower oil and packs chips in sea salt and nitrogen to preserve freshness . the company also uses russet burbank potatoes , which it buys from pacific northwest farmers , and does not use monosodium glutamate or artificial colors , flavors , or sweeteners .
since 1978 , kettle chips has been raising the bar on the potato game with bolder flavors , thicker chips , and enough crunch to humble nestlé . now , they ' re everywhere , with a cult of greasy - fingered followers ready to swallow up whatever they concoct .

kettle chips are my splurge love them . i found this health transformational system . 25 pounds melted right off . i have crazy amounts of energy and feel better then i’ve ever felt in my life . i literally can’t buy more then one bag . . no willpower . 🤪
voted america’s # 1 potato chip by rachel raythis is a taste you know but made better by our crunchy , golden kettle chips . boulder canyon™ sea salt & cracked pepper potato chips have a zesty pinch of salt combined with a kick of pepper . think you . . .
kettle chips , by contrast , have spent their time in this era of crazy chips experimenting with flavors we might actually want to eat . and they’ve done it to some successful ends . so we rounded up every flavor they’ve got and started crunching . here are the results .
while other snack food brands are busy altering their recipes to become trans - fat and preservative free , kettle ' s flavors have never been cooked up in a lab - - they ' re made the hard way , staying true to the company ' s all - natural promise .
all that growth led to kettle tapping its first - ever ad agency of record , cultivator advertising & design , denver . the move was made mainly to help maintain a consistent representation of the brand across its portfolio of products , which includes tortilla chips , nuts and nut butters .
unlike our writer dan gentile , i don’t worship at the altar of cock sauce . just smelling it gives me heartburn ( it doesn’t take much for me ) , and this bag has the same powerful smell . i do love the flavor , though - - red chile , garlic , vinegar , and sugar are wonderful bedfellows - - and though some might slight kettle’s sriracha for being too mellow , it allows me to finally get a taste of hipster ketchup without losing esophageal lining . so . . . well played kettle . and shut up , dan gentile .
long before the natural foods movement went mainstream , springfield creamery found its niche there , with its signature brand , nancy’s yogurt , made with milk from local dairies , fruit from nearby farms , and natural sweeteners . the family - run company , with roots deep in 1960s counterculture , sells nationwide today . annual sales exceeded $ 20 million . . .

my trip to the kettle factory dispelled my fantasy that each bag had a little waiter in a white shirt and black tie grinding pepper into each bag of these . it was a stupid fantasy , but it was mine , dammit . it doesn’t happen . but it tastes like it does .

just last summer , kettle bravely ventured into the world of bagged ( natural , non - gmo ) popcorn . it ' s sticking with just five flavors for now , but expect that lineup to expand as it gets more tips from pop secret . we recommend the sriracha variety , for obvious reasons .
under lion capital’s ownership , bumble bee foods has made an aggressive effort to drive innovation and is now at the forefront of innovation within the shelf - stable seafood category . the company has successfully launched several new concepts that meet consumers’ demand for healthy , tasty , convenient and affordable products , including a certified sustainable premium line of seafood and a retro - inspired canned tuna pack .
it takes a village community is a big deal at kettle brand . and the same is true of the farmers who pool together their crops and resources at oneida potato exchange , a farm cooperative located in the heart of wisconsin . by farms like neumiller and bula farms joining forces , the farmers are able to do [ … ]
the strategy paid off and , in 1996 , the company went public with the help of a private investment group . soon after the ipo , acquisitions started when bob’s texas style potato chips was bought back in 1998 . a bluffton , indiana , facility – the location where t . g . i . friday’s snack foods are produced – was acquired in 1999 , and the boulder canyon brand was purchased in 2000 .
he chose norfolk as our home , where you can still find us to this day , in order to be as close as possible to many of our potato growers . our first home was actually the corner of an old converted shoe factory in norwich . and so , from humble beginnings , the first kettle® chips were produced in the uk .

home grown for david fazio , owner of jd ranch on sauvie island in oregon , it was driving tractors as a kid that got him interested in farming . we’re glad it did . a third - generation farmer , his family has been growing potatoes for nearly a century on a 2 , 000 acre farm just 100 miles from kettle brand’s [ … ]

the newbridge silverware visitor centre is an award winning attractions located just 45 minutes from dublin and five minutes from the m7 motorway . it features the flagship showrooms , the world renowned museum of style icons ( mosi ) and the . . .
the newbridge silverware factory is a fully functional facility and is in production from monday to friday . at the weekends , the tour will showcase the factory in a different light as the machines will be dormant but the experience for visitors will remain astounding .
the museum of style icons started 11 years ago when ceo of newbridge silverware , william doyle purchased a little black dress worn by audrey hepburn in the 1963 film , charade . it is therefore fitting that the new extension to the museum launches with a collection of little black dresses from the 1920’s right up to today .
after the exhibition ends at the museum of style icons on september 30 in newbridge , ireland , it will continue at the museo de la moda in santiago chile .
newbridge silverware recently launched ti : amo , a brand new collection , which puts sentiment at the centre of each piece . thetimeless elegance of this new collection embodies emotion , everlasting friendship , love , wisdom , spirituality and empowerment . featuring stunning rose gold , rhodium and silver plated bracelets , earrings and necklaces , ti : amo is a ' must - have ' for any jewellery lovers .
dear newbridge , just wanted to let you know the earrings arrived ( so quickly ! ) and are absolutely beautiful . my brother visited ireland , and your s . . .
the museum of style icons is located at the newbridge silverware visitor centre in co kildare and houses one of the greatest collections of style , fashion and popular culture . it is open seven days per week and admission is €7 for adults and €5 for students and senior citizens . tickets can be purchase in advance online at urltoken or in - store . the museum of style icons is a must - visit attraction .
at the turn of the 20th century , the town of newbridge , in the heart of co . kildare was a thriving garrison community . the cavalry barracks in newbridge was the largest overseas base in the british empire . it housed over 3 , 000 troops . the troops and war horses used in the crimean war and particularly the famous charge of the
light brigade
came from newbridge . great economic activity grew around this facility . in particular , metal linishing skills were developed . this all changed when the army vacated in 1921 , leaving a huge economic vacuum .
newbridge has been crafting quality jewellery , cutlery , and giftware for over 80 years , and have perfected the art of design and craftsmanship , to earn themselves a proud place in the modern irish home .
if this place was in the us , i ' d label it a tourist trap and not give it a second thought . but given the history of the place and the clear and apparent pride of craftsmanship , i think newbridge is absolutely worth a quick visit . silverware , glassware and a cafe to boot . certainly worth a thirty minute stop in to grab a thoughtful and inoffensive gift for mom , or to round out your
i ' m having company over
collection of utensils .
the idea of this museum began when the owner of newbridge silverware went along to the auction & participated in the bid for audrey hepburn’s iconic black dress . the bidding went upto 600k but then a private phone bidder won with a bid of 600k ( ! ! ) and this phone bidder ended up being givenchy himself ! the owner of newbridge didn’t end up getting the black dress but purchased some of her other pieces on the day and that’s how it all began . the audrey hepburn room was definitely my favourite . she was just out of this world stunning and it was so interesting to see some of the pieces she is known for . also , she was absolutely tiny ! the waist size on the dresses was even smaller than you would imagine . really interesting to see !
have eaten in the cafe which is beautiful but not cheap but great selection of salads mains and desserts for all tastes . great selection of jewellery and homewares from the newbridge collection and place is clean and airy . plenty of parking but gets very busy
i think it ' s important to treasure our national brands especially the way things are . i love newbridge silverware , they make affordable jewellery and home ware . you can visit the factory shop and get cheaper prices again . but for me their best new addition is the style museum . they recently had the late micheal jacksons clothes and that famous glove on display . they have audrey hepburns clothes also , that woman ' s waist was tiny ! go check it out for yourself , it ' s a short drive from the city centre or you could get the bus or train , one of a kind in ireland .
a major part in the historic treaty negotiation of 1921 . it was they who formed a committee to encourage local industrial development . the metal forging and linishing equipment left behind by the army and the local know how were combined to create a unique enterprise - the newbridge cutlery company .
if you don ' t wish to pay for the exhibit ( i visited several years ago , when it was still a free exhibit ) the gift shop is a nice place to see just a few of the stunning items they make at newbridge silver . with that said . . .
if you follow me on snapchat ( retroflame1 ) , you’ll know that last week i made a trip to newbridge to visit the newbridge museum of style icons . i had heard a lot about it beforehand but i can honestly say that i was absolutely blown away ! i won’t lie , i wouldn’t usually be a museum kinda girl , but when it’s a museum full to the brim of the most stunning vintage pieces , i am 100 % interested . the whole space is so well decorated & i genuinely could have spent hours wandering around listening to the stories behind each piece .

coco chanel is credited with creating the lbd in the 1920’s , describing it as
a sort of uniform for women all over the world , from all backgrounds regardless of their walk of life
. before chanel , black clothing was the colour of mourning , servitude and religious devotees . chanel’s black was a radical style statement of chic minimalism and modernity . it was also another expression of her central philosophy that women should dress “comme des garcons” – like the boys . by which she meant adopting a simple , practical and elegant way of dressing , completely opposed to the elaborate and highly decorative style of the parisian belle époque at the time .
the “lbd , the little black dress” exhibition at the museum of style icons will house some of the greatest names in fashion from the last century including of course chanel , karl lagerfeld , yves saint laurent , alaia , gianni versace , gucci , jean paul gautier , balenciaga , giorgio armani , alexander mcqueen and much more .
highlight pieces include an unlabelled 1920’s cocktail dress , which is in pristine condition . made from rayon , an inexpensive alternative to silk satin , the style of this dress closely resembles the minimal style that made chanel famous . it showcases that great style truly never goes out of fashion . another key piece is an anthony price velvet dress with an extraordinary sculptured neckline from the late 1980’s . the structure of this piece is truly spectacular . there is also an alaia hooded dress from 1987 , which became synonymous with the designer and was worn famously by grace jones and appeared in the robert palmer video for addicted to love . this garment is exceptionally made with a spiral zip as a key detail .
speaking of the museum expansion and upcoming exhibition , marie brennan from the museum of style icons commented “it’s an exciting time for the museum as the new extension will dramatically increase the exhibition space and allow us greater freedom for housing visiting exhibitions . this lbd exhibition is a must - see for style and fashion lovers . it shows the versatility as well as the evolution of the black dress into a fashion stable . every woman has a lbd in their wardrobe and this exhibition will make you want to invest in more . ”
the cobain family to open an exhibition of personal artefacts belonging to the legend kurt cobain , at ireland’s museum of style icons , one of the world’s leading pop culture museums . his car , his clothing , his art .
kurt cobain’s mother , sisters and daughter will bring to ireland , never before exhibited , personal artefacts belonging to the legendary rock star . the cobain family will be meeting international and national press on the 17th and 18th july from 11am , as part of the opening event and the exhibition will continue through to 30th september 2018 .
cobain’s irish roots are well known . he believed that his family originated in county cork but in fact his irish ancestors emigrated from carrickmore , county tyrone , in 1875 .
cobain’s family has specially curated some of his very personal items for this once in a lifetime commemoration . the museum of style icons will house kurt’s drawings and sketches along with clothing , hand - written lyrics and the only known car kurt owned during his life , a powder blue 1965 dodge dart .
the opening of ‘growing up kurt cobain’ exhibition will be attended by kurt’s mother wendy o’connor , two sisters kim cobain and olivia o’connor and daughter frances bean cobain to celebrate his irish heritage .
frances bean cobain , says : “i am so thrilled to participate and support my family as they honor their brother and son at the museum of style icons in ireland . i have always been the most intimately informed of who my father was by my grandmother and aunts . i am so ecstatic that their view of who kurt was gets to be celebrated with nirvana fans the world over” .
william doyle , owner of the museum of style icons , comments : “these items have never previously been seen by the public and it’s an incredible honor to be a part of this amazing exhibition . we have handled exhibitions of michael jackson , cher , prince and many other fashion icons and we expect this exhibition of kurt’s life to be one of our greatest exhibitions curated by our museum .
as the cobain family has never done anything like this previously , industry pundits say that it “will likely be as big as the recent pink floyd and david bowie exhibitions that took place at the v & a in london . ”
kurt donald cobain ( february 20 , 1967 – april 5 , 1994 ) was an american singer , songwriter , and musician . born in aberdeen washington , cobain formed the band nirvana with krist novoselic and aaron burckhard in 1987 and established it as part of the seattle music scene which later became known as ‘grunge’ . nirvana ' s debut album bleach was released on the independent record label subpop in 1989 .
nirvana found breakthrough success with ‘smells like teen spirit’ from their second album ‘nevermind’ in 1991 . following that success , nirvana was labelled
the flagship band
of generation x , and cobain hailed as
the spokesman of a generation
. cobain , however , was uncomfortable with the label , believing his message and artistic vision had been misinterpreted by the public , with his personal problems often subject to media attention .
kurt’s sister , kim cobain , concludes :
with this exhibition we hope to bring the focus back to his roots , vision , and artistic genius to inspire everyone not to lose their creativity and childlike wonder .
the hot pink cocktail dress worn by audrey hepburn when she appeared in the 1961 american romantic comedy breakfast at tiffany ' s opposite george peppard .
hepburn ' s portrayal of holly golightly as the naive , eccentric cafe society girl is generally considered to be the actress ' most memorable and identifiable role .
the knee length sleeveless dress was designed by her favourite designer hubert de givenchy . it is made from silk , decorated all over with fan shaped appliques accented with small rhinestones with a matching pink bow at the waist .

the plaza hotel provides free parking . buffet breakfast included . room was clean but equipments need update . bathroom was good size with bathtub . noice from bar overnight .
we stayed for 3 days & really enjoyed it . we got there at 10 . 00 am thinking we would just be dropping our bags off , but they allowed us to check into our room which was great because we were on our way to a christening . breakfast was lovely , lots to chose from .
a pleasant greeting met us on arrival . rooms clean and fresh . staff were very friendly and helpful . ( hot water heater behind our wall was a bit disturbing ) . sadly no breakfast until 10am , not really suitable if you want the whole day out . excellent food from their kitchen .

“heartbreak hotel” , was a number - one hit in the us and he soon became the leading figure of rock and roll . his energized interpretations of songs and sexually provocative performance style , made him enormously popular and controversial . elvis married only once to priscilla ann presley ( née wagner ) from 1967 to 1973 and had one child , lisa marie , who was born on 1st february 1968 .
elvis is one of the most celebrated musicians of the 20th century . he was nominated for 14 grammys and won three , receiving the grammy lifetime achievement award at age 36 and has been inducted into multiple music halls of fame . several years of prescription drug abuse severely deteriorated his health , and he died in 1977 at the age of 42 .

this notable garment was worn by liza minnelli in her most famous role as sally bowles in the 1972 film , cabaret .
set in berlin in 1931 , the film follows american cabaret singer bowles as she meets british academic brian roberts ( played by michael york ) , who is finishing his university studies . a love triangle ensues which is played out against the rise of the nazi party and the collapse of the weimar republic .

as well as a full room dedicated to audrey , the museum is full of pieces from princess diana , grace kelly , marilyn monroe , the beatles , michael jackson & more . it’s so clear that everything has been so carefully chosen and as mentioned before , you could literally spend hours there looking at everything .
after i finished in the museum , i was treated to a delicious afternoon tea downstairs in the restaurant . my mom was supposed to come with but wasn’t able to in the end , but i am definitely going to go again during christmas & bring her along . such a perfect girls day out ! and the best thing of all is that it’s totally free ! let me know if you’ve been before or if you’re planning a trip ? i would love to see your snaps ( retroflame1 ) .
as you know , i’m back in new york again after an amazing september at home . i’ve definitely been a little homesick this past weekend but i think it will just take me a little while to settle back in again . i absolutely love new york to bits & there’s no where i’d rather be at the moment , but , unfortunately , the goodbyes to all my friends & family at home just never get easier . i just need to come up with a plan to convince them all to move over here with me , haha : )
that looks like my kind of place ! we are going to dublin in january for my husband’s 40th . maybe i could leave him at the bourbon tasting and go there instead !
retro flame is a compact diary of my outfits , travel , work & inspirations .
