maybe the best comparison here might be pinnacle foods. pinnacle doesn't have the scale or the breadth of tree house, nor do they have the kind of healthy food exposure with tree house. with amazon getting into the private label game, i think they would be fools not to go with tree house. which has the experience the infrastructure and expertise to help amazon get running. i've locked the stock for so long and it's coming down, tree house is not exactly cheap. more expensive than mogalise which branded smucker's at 20 time. kellogg's makes the real deal. well, kellogg's makes the knockoff. if you're -- never mind. tree house does have much faster growth in these countries. tree house underpromises and over delivers. anyone who's batched this show for a long time. here's the bottom line, private label food is booming, you know it's good when amazon decided they want a piece of it, when it comes to the zre, tree house is the king of knockoffs. the news that amazon plans to sell private brand food of their own could be the logical thing. if t
