Shandy WattersGUEST
So, um, I don't see that a lot, but I, but it's totally plausible.
Alex ClarkHOST
What is the reason why a kid might always say yes to Goldfish crackers or something, but not blueberries? Is it because a Goldfish cracker, it's like you always know it will be the same?
Shandy WattersGUEST
Consistent, yeah.
Alex ClarkHOST
Yeah.
Shandy WattersGUEST
Yeah.
Alex ClarkHOST
Different sizes.
Shandy WattersGUEST
Yeah, that, and a Goldfish cracker is, um, ultra-processed, right? And so there's things in that Goldfish that feel good when we eat it, um, and sometimes can drive like a biochemical addiction, for lack of be- better words.
Shandy WattersGUEST
Like a, like a very strong biochemical craving to the Goldfish.
Vani HariGUEST
in the product so your body can handle the variations of the seasons and how things are growing, and it also helps your kids get unhooked from processed foods.
Vani HariGUEST
I talk about this example all the time where, you know, if you give your kids g- Goldfish every day for their snack, their body is going to be accustomed to eating ultra-processed-
Mindy PelzHOST
Yeah
Vani HariGUEST
... foods because they're adding different...
Vani HariGUEST
There's additives in Goldfish like autolyzed yeast extract and flavoring and other things in there that keep them hooked to that flavor.
Vani HariGUEST
But it also keeps them hooked to the same flavor, the same taste.
Mindy PelzHOST
Hmm.
Mindy PelzHOST
Yeah.
Dana StanleyHOST
No, I knew we were gonna have overlaps.
Dana StanleyHOST
So you agree, like, if your kids love Goldfish, if that's their, like, emotional support snack-
Summer HarmsGUEST
Yes
Dana StanleyHOST
... you know every kid is different.
Dana StanleyHOST
... before with, like, the hard-boiled eggs.
Summer HarmsGUEST
Yes, the hard-boiled eggs.
Dana StanleyHOST
But, like, it's the same, something that they, you can throw in your bag, that even though they're in this, like, very unfamiliar place, they can still just sit in the stroller and eat a little bag of Goldfish, and kind of, like, reset everything, especially if they're having a tantrum.
Dana StanleyHOST
Because it is, it's a very over-stimulating place, and it's very unfamiliar for all of us.
Billy the KidHOST
That's headline number two.
Billy the KidHOST
Headline number three: Man sells ultra-rare Goldfish crackers that were stuck together for $1,500.
Candice LopezHOST
What? [laughs]
PoohHOST
What?
Billy the KidHOST
Man sells ultra-rare Goldfish crackers that were stuck together for $1,500.
Candice LopezHOST
Hmm.
Billy the KidHOST
Here we go.
PoohHOST
Well-
KlongHOST
Was it crushed up, uh-
KirstenGUEST
Goldfish
KlongHOST
... crushed up Goldfish and tuna?
Max SchererHOST
I really-
KlongHOST
Hey, pro tip-
KlongHOST
Okay.
Max SchererHOST
Because I'd always come up with, like, fa- like, just be like, so what is it really in essence? It's protein and it's a carb.
Max SchererHOST
Um, so one of my classic ones was I would get a bunch of Goldfish and put a can of tuna in there, and I'd mix it up.
ZeroHOST
There are not.
ZeroHOST
Pumpkin spice Goldfish?
Amy KayeHOST
Because they're kids, I don't think they would do pumpkin spice flavored.
Amy KayeHOST
No. [chime]
ZeroHOST
Oh, wait, you were wrong, actually.
ZeroHOST
[buzz]
Amy KayeHOST
There's pumpkin spice Goldfish?
ZeroHOST
Mm-hmm.
H. FoleyGUEST
Mm-hmm
Kevin RyanGUEST
... and Goldfish crackers.
H. FoleyGUEST
Yeah.
Kevin RyanGUEST
That was like the, we were-
Paul FalavolitoHOST
Walk through almost any grocery store in America and you will see the result of one woman's vision.
Paul FalavolitoHOST
Pepperidge Farm, Milano cookies, Goldfish crackers, these products became part of American culture.
Paul FalavolitoHOST
The company behind them became one of the most recognizable food brands in the world.
Paul FalavolitoHOST
The woman who started it all is rarely mentioned alongside Walt Disney, Milton Hershey, H.B. Reese or Steve Jobs.
Paul FalavolitoHOST
Pepperidge Farm expanded into cookies and frozen pastries.
Paul FalavolitoHOST
The company eventually acquired the American rights to produce small, fish-shaped Swiss crackers.
Paul FalavolitoHOST
We know it today as Goldfish.
Paul FalavolitoHOST
Margaret kept looking beyond the company's current success.
Nate CooperGUEST
And the idea is, you know, permissible indulgence, right, uh, nostalgia, you know, similar things that Lollipop has done of, like, take these form factors and flavors that you loved as a kid, but, you know, when you become an adult, you can't eat the same way as you, you did as a kid, right? Uh, but do them in a similar taste profile, but just a better-for-you version.
Brian SozziHOST
You know, I, uh, you know, I always tend to still listen to the, the earnings calls of a lot of these snacking giants, PepsiCo with, of course, Frito-Lay, you know, Campbell Soup with, uh, Snyder's-Lance pretzels and, and Goldfish, and they are all, they are all pushing back on this notion that GLP-1s are going to impact the snacking business longer term.
Brian SozziHOST
And I get it.
Brian SozziHOST
I mean, they have giant businesses.
