From Hayward, California
[edit]this section comes from the hayward article, and if sourced should be added here with a slight rewrite:
The economy of Hayward in the first half of the twentieth century was based largely on the Hunt Brothers Cannery, later known as Hunt-Wesson Foods. The cannery was opened in Hayward in 1895 by brothers William and Joseph Hunt, who were fruit packers originally from Sebastopol, California. The Hunts initially packed local fruit, including cherries, peaches, and apricots, then added tomatoes, which became the mainstay of their business. At its height in the 1960s and 1970s, Hunt's operated three canneries in Hayward, at A, B, and C Streets; an adjacent can-making company; a pickling factory; and a glass manufacturing plant. From the 1890s until its closure in 1981, Hunt's employed a large percentage of the local population. The air around Hayward was permeated by the smell of tomatos for three months of each year, during the canning season. The canneries closed in 1981 because there were no longer enough produce fields or fruit orchards near the cannery to make the plants economically feasible. Much of the production was moved to the Sacramento Valley.[citation needed]

[edit]Just came home with a can of whole tomatoes. I prefer your brand. Today was a disappointment. The can was partially empty. The side of the can was black. I threw them away. Out the cost of tomatoes. Wondering if I had used them would we have gotten sick. Linda Browning, Montana. 72.175.52.185 (talk) 01:52, 10 January 2023 (UTC)
