so can I find it where I would find the condensed milk?

One of the qualities of a faithful friend is
honesty even when the truth is painful.
We all need someone who will love us enough not to let
us head in a harmful direction, someone who with gentleness and love will
help steer us back on the path of
righteousness.

The Company was originally founded in 1912 as "The Litchfield Creamery
Company" in Litchfield, Illinois by Martin Jensen. In 1915, Charles Hauser
entered the business soon followed by William Hartke. These men
incorporated the company and built a new plant in 1916 at it's current
Litchfield location. World War I created a tremendous demand for dairy
products for export to our allies and in 1919 the company processed more
than 23 million pounds of milk, primarily sold as sweetened, condensed,
and evaporated. The company grew gradually during the 1920's and in 1930
began manufacturing MILNUT.
Milnut was a new product to consumers, and for several years sales were
slow. In 1932 Milnut operations started a rapid expansion under Mr.
Hauser. Late in 1939 the name was changed to Milnot. An additional plant
was purchased in Indiana in 1936 to increase sales. In 1946 a new Milnot
plant was constructed in Warsaw, Indiana and production started in 1947.
Also during the 1940's, Mr. Hauser came to Seneca, Missouri and purchased
land lying on the Missouri-Oklahoma line to expand production capacity.
The Seneca Missouri plant was opened for production in 1948. A brass floor
marker running through the plant denotes the division of the states to
this day. Today, all canned milk production has been consolidated at the
Seneca, Missouri plant.
In 1983, the company developed Dairy Sweet sweetened condensed milk, by
adding sweeteners to its evaporated whole milk product. Since its
introduction, Dairy Sweet has generated wide acceptance by consumers.
In 1975, The Milnot Company purchased the proprietary recipe from two-time
world champion chili cook-off champion, Joe DeFrates. In fact, the unique
spelling of "Chilli Man" and the "illi" stands for Illinois, the home
state of Joe DeFrates.
We at The Milnot Company are proud of the products that have supported our
long history and the users who have (and continue to) build the foundation
of our heritage. We will continue the tradition of providing quality,
innovative products for our consumers to share with their friends and
families.
