100 years. That takes us back to 1913. In terms of a personal perspective, this was the time frame of my great-grandparents. 1913 was several years after my great-great grandfather and great-grandfather separately boarded a ship from Norway to American never to return. As new immigrants they set forth in North Dakota to make their new life. Creamette Pasta was a product they could purchase and a product I can still purchase today. That’s amazing. Few things in life last 100 years, therefore I wish the Creamette Pasta company a hardy congratulations on reaching this epic milestone.
In honor of this special anniversary, as many companies do, they have opted to share their good fortune with their loyal customers. Creamette is currently holding an Essay and Recipe Contest for a chance to win $10,000. That’s pretty darn amazing!

~ I remember when I was growing up, in the summertime Mom would try to keep the kitchen cool by cooking easy meals. In NJ we didn’t have A/C. One meal we would have would be fresh Jersey tomatoes and Tuna Noodle Salad, made with Creamette Elbows. Never did I think those little memories would create some of the best memories to look back on. ~
