Borden Foods Corporation
 PROFILE
Borden Foods has stopped living in the pasta. Once the leading pasta maker in North America (Creamette brand in US, Catelli in Canada), the company sold the last of its pasta businesses to New World Pasta Company in mid-2001. Previously, Borden Foods had sold seven of its pasta brands to American Italian Pasta Company. Borden Foods also was #1 in premium pasta sauce (Classico) and #1 in bouillon (Wyler's) in the US until it sold those lines to H.J. Heinz. Borden Foods' remaining product is Pasta Anytime frozen dinners. Borden Foods' roots go back to Borden, Inc., bought by Kohlberg Kravis Roberts (KKR) in 1995. KKR spun off part of Borden as Borden Foods. Both firms are still owned by a KKR affiliate.
