When you think about your favorite breakfast cereal, do you ever think about who helped create it? Could you have gone to the same school as the person who created your favorite breakfast item?
Pamela Low ‘51, a New Hampshire native, graduated from UofNH with a colsa.unh microbiology degree and went right to a job at research firm Arthur D. Little. It was there that she was tasked with creating a sweet flavor for a new cereal. She thought back to something that her grandmother used to make: rice with butter-and-brown-sugar sauce. That idea became the distinct flavor of Cap’n Crunch.
Low worked as a flavorist from Arthur D. Little for more than 30 years, and also tinkered with flavors for snacks such as Almond Joy and Mounds candy bars.
