I thought it was about time I started a new thread!

Puma sportswear was founded by Rudolf Dassler, the brother of Adi Dassler, who founded Adidas - I never knew that!
Further to this, it's just been announced that the latter has just bought out the former, uniting both Dassler companies after 70 years of rivalry.

Red food colouring originally came from crushed cochineal beetles. And now with the banning of lots of artificial food colourings they are making a comeback.
