Del Monte buying Meow Mix

We've had some notes below about Del Monte's current activities -- speculation that they would be selling the private-label operations they bought a few years ago from Heinz. That is now confirmed. In addition, they announced today that they are buying Meow Mix -- to be added to their curent pet food lines, which include 9Lives and Kibbles 'n Bits.

By the way, in case you are (as I was) unfamiliar with TreeHouse Foods, the company that is buying Del Monte's private-label operations, they are a spin-off from Dean Foods created last year.
