The following are the headlines of the August 22, 1956 edition of The New York Times: SUNSHINE BISCUITS PLANNING MERGER; Set to Add Gordon Foods, Potato Chip Company, in Exchange of Shares In 1957-58 Mr. Pat O'Brien, president of Gordon became Vice President of Sunshine. American Tobacco Company purchased Sunshine Biscuits in 1966. The regional snack food companies (Dickey, Mann, Gordon, Blue Bell, Krun-Chee and one or two others) owned by Sunshine were sold off to various companies by American Tobacco, later American Brands. Sunsine was sold to G. F. Industries, a privately held California company, and finally merged with Keebler Company in 1996. Keebler was purchased by Kellogg (Corn Flakes).
