Turns out they've owned Stouffers since 1973, and they've shipped a
lot of decent food over the years.

They're still destroying a DiGiorno/Tombstone product that was still
very good IMHO even two years ago, but I guess that's too small to
register on their overall operations. I'll give it a pause for a year
or two and see if it survives.
