As Associated Foods sold out and became part of Topco, Western Family brands were all replaced with Food Club in our Independent Grocery Stores. At that time Red Button ice cream also became available in the stores. It is apparently a Topco label as they even paint tubs of Red Button on the side of their semi trailers.
I have no idea who packages the product for them, or where. I agree it is a very good product.
I found a tub of Red Button black licorice flavored ice cream last month. Oh my! I dare not buy another.
Before my recent retirement, we packaged sugar for Associated Foods under the Western Family label. Western Family, Kroger, Winco,and Albertsons/ were our four biggest customers of 25#, 10#, & 4# granulated, 1# and 2# powder, and 1# & 2# light and dark brown sugar.
All of that Western Family product is now packaged in Food Club bags.
