Grippo's is a snack food company headquartered in Cincinnati, Ohio.[1] Beginning operation in 1919,[1] the company grew regionally, adding varieties of snack foods to its production. The company was founded by Angelo Grippo and originated from a one-room office on Court Street in downtown Cincinnati. Today, the business is headquartered at Colerain Avenue in Cincinnati.[2]
History
In 1919, Angelo Grippo began manufacturing rolled sugar cones.[1] He later added traditional hand-twisted pretzels[1] which sold for 1¢ at retailers throughout Greater Cincinnati in 1923. In 1930, Grippo invented the "loop pretzel", which resembles a tear drop shape. The effort was developed from the idea of creating a simplified pretzel shape which would be more resistant to breakage. Grippo also constructed and established the operation of the pretzel looping machines.[3] In addition to the loop pretzel, Grippo's offers rod, braided, and twist pretzels.[4]
By 1959, Grippo added potato chips to his snack food selection.[1] Varieties currently produced include Bar-B-Q Potato Chips, Salt and Vinegar Chips, Cheddar Cheese and Jalapeno Chips, Hot Dill Pickle Chips, Smokin' Hot Kettle Chips, and Sweet Bermuda Onion Chips. Grippo's Bar-B-Q chips specifically are known for their often powdery and spicy barbecue coating.[1] Popularity of the Bar-B-Q selection have inspired additional choices, such as X Hot BBQ Chips, XX Hot BBQ Chips, individual sale of Grippo's BBQ as a gourmet spice, and Grippo's Original BBQ Sauce.[5] Although the origins to Grippo's have no known connection to the city of Evansville, Indiana, the Bar-B-Q Potato Chip product is incredibly popular there, and has become a significant part of the local culture.[1] Grippo's has also expanded to other cities in the tristate area of Ohio, Kentucky and Indiana, with nostalgia and a "cult-like following" being cited for its popularity.[6]
In March 2013, Grippo's recalled a brand of potato chips when metal shavings were found on the salt applicators.[7]
