Can't speak to whether they've made it over the pond or not but yeah they're the go-to salt makers in America, you can find them in pretty much every kitchen across the country
Salt, eh? I could have stared at that logo for a very long time without once thinking 'salt'. But then again, I have never paused to ponder the link between Amex and the Trojan War.
Morton's is presently a subsidiary of a German mining company, but got its start as an American salt company in the 1840s. It has operations in the United States, Canada, and the Bahamas. Not sure if it's sold anywhere else. The Morton salt girl was created for an advertising campaign from 1914. According to one magazine article from 1989 it was one of the top 10 most recognized symbols in the United States that year. I think it would probably be considerably lower on the list if they redid the survey today.
Even once it was revealed I still have no idea what "Morton's" is...I was guessing some sort of flour company (to go with the Hansel and Gretel imagery).
The logo is tied to their slogan: "When it rains, it pours." The idea--and major selling point when both were created in 1914--was that Morton added a chemical to keep their salt from clumping up in high humidity. Thus, even when it was raining, their salt would pour freely.
I have to say that this quiz was the hardest one I could ever take in my life. But, to be fair, it was good. I gave it my best and I didn't give up on it and I think it can get more quizzes like this one and more on the ones I took before this one.
I typed "ray-bans" so I accidentally had an S in front when I typed "audi", looked up to see why it wasn't going and for a second I thought I was doing a geography quiz
