Maybe Gaymont is not just a store brand.

“Stephen A. Gaymont, a Hungarian-born bacteriologist who introduced yogurt to the United States in the early 1940’s, died on Friday. He was 89.

The cause of death was an aortic aneurysm, his family said.

Dr. Gaymont was also credited with inventing frozen yogurt as well as marketing the first yogurt with fruit added to it.”

- 1994

I never knew there was a story behind the name. I guess I was use to Safeway’s Cragmont sodas.
