Jewel-Osco began in 1889 as a collective of door-to-door tea and coffee salesmen. The group named their business the Jewel Tea Company, and eventually expanded into a successful mail order service. In the early 20th century, the company began purchasing Chicago-area grocery stores and re-opened them under the name Jewel Food Stores. In 1934, the Jewel Tea Company and Jewel Food Stores officially merged. In the 1960s, Jewel acquired the drugstore chain Osco, and began branding their stores as Jewel-Osco. Today, Jewel-Osco is a subsidiary of Albertson’s LLC, and operates 184 stores throughout Illinois, Indiana, and Iowa.

Kellogg's Tony the Tiger mascot was part of the company's Astronaut Breakfast Game,  which piggybacked on the popularity of space travel in the 1960s. The promotion issued to teachers encouraged kids to "Be First to Have Breakfast on the Moon" by eating a healthy breakfast, including a bowl of Kellogg's cereal. The game tracked what each student had for breakfast on school days over a four-week period. Points were awarded based on foods eaten. Each player used white game pieces, with blue ones given to the winning team.

Kellogg's was founded in 1906 in Battle Creek, Michigan as the Battle Creek Toasted Corn Flake Company. Tony the Tiger has been the mascot for Frosted Flakes since its introduction in 1951 as Sugar Frosted Flakes. The cereal was renamed in 1983. The character was voiced for over 50 years by Thurl Ravenscroft, who also did voiceover work in several movies and sang "You're a Mean One, Mr. Grinch" from the 1966 TV special Dr. Seuss' How the Grinch Stole Christmas.

"Fresh-Up" Freddie was an animated chicken character used in ad campaigns for 7up starting in 1957. Freddie was created by the Leo Burnett ad agency, but the Walt Disney studio did the animation for TV commercials in which Freddie appeared. The character also was seen in comic books and on Disney's live-action TV show, and spawned merchandise such as plastic dolls and stuffed toys. The ad campaign that featured Freddie was discontinued after only a couple of years.

Freddie was voiced by Paul Frees, a noted voice actor. In addition to many animated characters, Frees' voice has also been heard as the "Ghost Host" in the Haunted Mansion ride at Disneyland in Anaheim, California since the ride's opening in 1969.
