19 Dec 2018 --- Shoppers favor items with a lower carbon footprint as long as they’re given clear information on the label.

They found that when the products had a “carbon label,” participants bought fewer beef soups and more vegetable soups, in comparison to when there was no label provided.

Almost 30 years later, the company created a puffed-rice version. In 1980, that candy bar got its own name, Cri Cri, thanks to a formula the founders picked up by talking to friends, neighbors and kids: The name needed to be short and easy to pronounce.
