On this day in 1907: Feigenson brothers introduce first version of Faygo pop in Detroit
DETROIT โ Ben and Perry Feigenson introduced the first version of what would become a Detroit staple on Nov. 4, 1907, when the bakers created a beverage based off their frosting flavors. The brothers also started referring to the drinks as pop because of the sound the bottles made when opened. The beverage was sold under the name Feigenson Brothers Bottling Works until 1920, when the company was changed to the Feigenson Brothers Company. The next year, the brothers decided the name was too long to put on glass bottles, and shortened it to Faygo. There are now more than 50 Faygo flavors available.
