Advertising Copy on Article[edit]

Parts of the history section read like advertising and I'd bet that they were copied from Carnation corporate literature or web sites. This needs to be fixed.--Drvanthorp (talk) 03:30, 7 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Does anyone else find it a strange coincidence that the name for a carnation in the Swiss language is "nestle"?--Drvanthorp (talk) 03:30, 7 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Are the dates right on the naming of Carnation:[edit]

First paragraph it mentions that in 1899 the name of the evaporated milk product in "1899, then called Carnation Sterilized Cream."

Under the Elbridge Amos Stuart section, third paragraph, it mentioned that the name Carnation was inspired by a cigar sign, circa 1901. "In 1901, his partner sold out, leaving Stuart the company .. As sales gradually grew, Stuart sought a brand name for the product. Passing a tobacconist's window in downtown Seattle, Stuart saw a display of cigars around a sign with the name: Carnation. His own firm subsequently adopted the name Carnation Evaporated Milk Company." Out-of-print-books (talk) 20:31, 2 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
