As Father's Day approaches, it's worth reflecting on the lessons our dads tried to teach us about what really matters—and how spectacularly we've managed to ignore most of them.

The Story of the Incredible Uncrustables
In 1995, two dads created the “Incredible Incrustables” primarily to minimize the hassle and eliminating the normal mess associated with making peanut butter and jelly sandwiches for their kids. Four years later, the J.M. Smucker Company purchased the rights to Uncrustables for $8.5 million. By the early 2000s, Uncrustables had become a major success, particularly in schools, grocery stores, and later, sports nutrition programs. Today the annual sales of Uncrustables is north of $800M / year and growing fast!!
