Milnot Company
 PROFILE
Milnot milks soybeans for all they're worth. Under the Milnot brand, the company makes canned milk products in which the fat is replaced by soybean oil. Milnot also makes Beech-Nut baby food, Dairy Sweet condensed milk, Chilli Man canned chili, and private-label products. Milnot has plants in Illinois, Missouri, and New York. The company was founded in 1912 as the Litchfield Creamery Company in Litchfield, Illinois. With its 1998 purchase of Beech-Nut from Ralcorp, Milnot more than doubled in size and became the nation's # 3 maker of baby food, behind Gerber and H.J. Heinz. Chicago investment firm Madison Dearborn Partners owns Milnot. Heinz's plan to buy Milnot was crushed in 2001 due to antitrust concerns.
