Separately, Jeno Paulucci developed a series of food businesses starting in the late 1940s, including the Chun King line of Chinese foods.[3] After selling Chun King in 1966, he founded Jeno's Inc. in 1968, where cook and product developer Beatrice Ojakangas developed Pizza Rolls,[4][5] a type of egg roll filled with pizza ingredients. The first pizza roll flavor was cheese.[3] In 1985, Paulucci sold his Jeno's Pizza Rolls brand to Pillsbury for $135 million.[6]

The Jeno's line of pizza rolls was rebranded as Totino's in 1993.

Thanks Beatrice, aka "Scandinavian Julia Child", still alive at 90: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beatrice_Ojakangas

TiL Pizza rolls have been around since 1977! That's just amazing. I'm going to need to add pizza rolls to my next grocery run

10¢ off what a deal!

I remember the Fry Daddy appliance from the old days, didn't know there was a Fry Baby.

Just about everyone I knew in the 70s had a fry daddy or fry baby.

Huh. I really assumed that these delicious abominations were created during the obesity/diabetes on-ramp period of the 80s to 90s.

Guess I should probably be glad that I never had them until I was in my teens in the late 90s or maybe early 00s.

Did anyone else's stomach turn when they saw this? I think they're already pre-deep fried. To fry them again is pretty gross imo.
