The Most Famous American Brands In Foreign Hands (PHOTOS)
The Most Famous American Brands In Foreign Hands (PHOTOS): "The Popsicle brand started in 1923, when founder Frank Epperson began peddling the frozen juice on a wooden stick at an amusement park in Alameda, California. The frozen treat became an increasingly popular children’s snack. The company’s “Twin Popsicle” brand, which features two sticks, was created during the Great Depression so that children who could only afford a single treat could share. Today, the brand is an iconic summer treat. In 1989, the Popsicle brand was purchased by Good Humor, another former American company owned by Unilever."
