In 1925 the Columbus-based Tom Huston Peanut Company began selling single-serving packages of roasted peanuts nationally. As of 2006, its more than 1,300 employees in 4 states produce 20 snack products, which are sold in 43 states under the company's red triangular logo.
The Tom’s man behind the logo was inventor John Thomas "Tom" Huston, a Columbus resident whose creations included a mechanical peanut sheller and a roaster for shelled peanuts. Huston literally earned peanuts for his efforts; local farmers in need of his inventions paid him with portions of their harvests. In 1926 Huston patented a narrow glassine package that he could fill with this local crop. Emblazoned with a triangular label that read "Tom's Toasted Peanuts," Huston began selling the packages to independent distributors.
