Cool Whip is a brand of imitation whipped cream, referred to as whipped topping by its manufacturer. It is used in North America as a dessert topping and in some no-bake pie recipes. It was originally described as "non-dairy" as it contained neither cream nor milk and no lactose; however, it did contain the milk derivative caseinate . In 2010 both skim milk and light cream were added to Original Cool Whip. == Overview == Cool Whip was introduced in 1966 by the Birds Eye division of General Foods. Within two years of introduction, it became the largest and most profitable product in the Birds Eye line of products. Birds Eye later merged with Kraft Foods and Philip Morris, eventually becoming part of Altria Group until the spin-off of Kraft Foods from Altria in 2006. In July 2015 Kraft merged with Heinz to be known as Kraft Heinz Company. The Kraft company merged with 3G/Heinz in July 2015 to become one of the largest food makers now known as Kraft Heinz . It is now the most eaten brand of whipped topping in the U.S.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= U.S.: Most eaten brands of whipped topping (cream type) 2011-2014 )〕 The creator of Tang, William A. Mitchell, also invented Pop Rocks, Cool Whip, instant-set Jell-O, and other convenience foods. According to: 〔Muir, David (April 19, 2006). "Candy Celebrates 50 Years of Popping " (video). ABC News.〕 Dr. William A. "Bill" Mitchell (October 21, 1911 – July 26, 2004) was an American food chemist who, while working for General Foods Corporation between 1941 and 1976, was the key inventor behind Pop Rocks, Tang, quick-set Jell-O, Cool Whip, and powdered egg whites.() During his career he received over 70 patents. The original formula for Cool Whip was developed at the research labs of Lever Brothers in Toronto, Canada. The head chemist on the project was Paul H. Campbell, who was given the task of developing a whipping cream with a longer shelf life. The key advantage of the invention was that it was a whipped cream-like product that could be distributed in a frozen state by grocery chains and kept in the consumer's refrigerator. Lever Brothers was eventually purchased by the General Foods Corporation. Cool Whip is manufactured in Avon, New York for the United States and Canadian markets.〔(Kraft Tells Schumer That Cool Whip Plant In Avon Is Unlikely To Close )〕 It is sold in 8 oz. (226 g) and larger plastic tubs produced by Berry Plastics and is distributed through grocery outlets in a frozen state, and is refrigerated in the home prior to serving.
