Elmer's Fine Foods

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Elmer's Fine Foods, or just Elmer's, is a snack food company based in New Orleans, Louisiana. Started in 1946, Elmer's makes snack products like its popular Chee Wees (a common New Orleanian phrase for any cheese snack) and Mardi Gras cheese curls to various southeast states. The Elmer's mascot is a mouse in a tuxedo and spats. Their plant and offices are located in the Ninth Ward, a part of New Orleans that was heavily flooded by Hurricane Katrina. As of December 26th, 2006, Elmer's offices have been rebuilt, and they are currently taking orders and shipping products.
