Kraft Foods Inc (KFT)
Beginning with just cheese, Kraft has crafted ludicrous amounts of labels under its names: A1, frozen California Pizza Kitchen, Boca, and way too many others to list. This Chicago-based company lost $3,000 and a horse (seriously) its first year of business. Now it's pulling in over $37 billion dollars annually.
