Ro*tel

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ro*Tel is the brand name of a line of canned tomatoes and green chiles. There are different varieties of Ro*tel in varying degrees of hotness and spiciness. The brand was acquired by ConAgra Foods, Inc. in 2002. Ro*Tel gets its name from its inventor, Carl Roettele, who started a family canning company in Harlingen, Texas in the 1940's. It is commonly used in making chili con queso.

Ro*Tel is a standing official sponsor of the AT&T Red River Rivalry football game between the Universities of Texas and Oklahoma, and sponsors other college football teams and contests.
