Newman's Own

Charitable food brand

Newman's Own is a food company founded by actor Paul Newman in 1982, known for salad dressings, pasta sauces, popcorn, and other products.

The brand's distinguishing feature is that all profits go to charity—over half a billion dollars donated since its founding.

Newman's face appears on the packaging: I grabbed a bottle of Newman's Own at the store.
