  Subj: Food for thought - Newman's Own  
 From: gw45news@gwinfo.dhs.org 
  
 Paul Newman runs a food company and donates all profits to charity. 
  
 Newman's Own began with $40,000 and was tested by pals in Newman's 
 kitchen.  Products were critiqued around his ping-pong table and then 
 sold directly  to grocery stores. According to the food industry 
 experts at the time, this  operation should have lost $1 million in 
 the first year. But after 12  months of business, what started as a 
 joke ended up giving close to $1  million to charity! 
  
 Newman attributes the extraordinary success of his company to two 
 policies. First, he insists on top quality, all-natural products with 
 no added  preservatives. Second, he gives all after-tax profits to 
 charities both in  the United States and abroad. Newman's Own combines 
 these two principles,  allowing consumers to purchase great tasting 
 products while supporting  their communities. It's all about eating 
 good food and doing good at the  same time! 
  
 Newman's Own products are available in all major retail chains in the 
 United States, Canada, Australia, Iceland, England, Germany, Israel 
 and  Japan. Newman's Own donates 100% of all after-tax profits to 
 charities in  the communities that buy its products.
