In 1925, Tom Huston founded "Tom's Roasted Peanuts",
and began selling his peanuts for a nickel a bag. Within two years, Tom's peanuts were being sold around the country, generating million in sales. Due to unpaid notes, though, Huston lost the company to the bank. In 1932, Walter Richards bought Tom's from the bank and took the company public. By the 1950s, sales reached million.
