Reddi-Wip is an American brand of sweetened whipped cream propelled from its container by nitrous oxide . It is produced by Conagra Brands and is sold in varieties such as Original, Extra Creamy, Fat Free , Zero Sugar, and Barista . In 2019, two new plant-based varieties, Non-Dairy Coconut and Non-Dairy Almond , were released.[1] Both products are dairy-free and plant-based .[2]
Reddi-Wip was packaged in Chicago, Illinois , by Hunt-Wesson Foods and Beatrice Foods at Brookhill Farms Dairy until 1982, when operations were moved to Holland, Michigan , and later sold to Conagra Brands. In 2007, Conagra relocated the production of Reddi-Wip to its Indianapolis, Indiana facility.[citation needed ]
Reddi-Wip remains one of Conagra Brands' major brands[3] and is the second most eaten brand of whipped topping in the United States behind Cool Whip .[4]
History
[ edit ]
During the food rationing era of World War II , Aaron S. "Bunny" Lapin[5] [failed verification ] invented Sta-Whip as a cream substitute using vegetable oil .[citation needed ]
In 1948, he invented Reddi-Wip in collaboration with Aaron Block, using real cream . They developed a new valve more suitable for dispensing whipped cream, with fluting to create a pattern and a tilt-to-open design that preserves the propellant.[citation needed ] Other similar products were on the market at the time, including the non-dairy Rich's Whip Topping and Delsoy Presto Whip, which were developed at Henry Ford 's soybean laboratories.[6] Delsoy Presto Whip was packed in pressurized cans that had been developed for military insecticide sprays during the war.[citation needed ]
Lapin applied and received a patent for "dispensing valves for gas pressure containers". He achieved national distribution in 1954, selling his company in 1963.[citation needed ] In 1968, Hunt-Wesson acquired Reddi-Wip from Marcus Lipsky, Lapin's brother-in-law.[7] [8] Lipsky was an associate of Chicago mobster Ross Prio .[9]
In 1983, then Reddi-Wip brand owner Hunt-Wesson Foods briefly experimented with amaretto and butterscotch flavors.[citation needed ]
Norton-Simon merged with Beatrice Foods in 1985 and was subsequently acquired in 1990 by Conagra , Norton-Simon's corporate heir.[10]
