In December 1999, two independent inventors, Len Kretchman and David Geske, were granted U.S. [[patent]],<ref name="patent">{{US patent|6004596}}</ref> [[Sealed crustless sandwich|"Sealed Crustless Sandwich"]] for a peanut butter sandwich that would have a long shelf life. [[The J.M. Smucker Co.]] bought the patent from the inventors and developed a commercial product based on the patent called [[Uncrustables]]. Smuckers then invested [[US$]]17 million in a new factory<ref name="baking">{{cite web |title= Smucker profits up 16% in fiscal 2005; integration progress seen|url= http://www.bakingbusiness.com/headline_stories.asp?ArticleID=74654 |date= June 16, 2005 |work= |publisher=Bakingbusiness.com |accessdate=22 September 2006}}{{dead link|date=December 2010}} {{Dead link|date=October 2010|bot=H3llBot}}</ref> to produce the product. By 2005, sales of Uncrustables had grown to $60 million a year with a 20% per year growth rate. |

Smuckers attempted to enforce their patent rights by sending out [[cease and desist]] letters to competitors, and by expanding their intellectual property coverage via the patenting of a machine to produce Uncrustables sandwiches in high volume {{US patent|6874409}} "Method and apparatus for making commercial crustless sandwiches and the crustless sandwich made thereby". The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit, however, rejected the viability of the patent citing its similarity to existing processes such as that of fashioning ravioli or a pie crust.<ref name="MSN">{{cite web |title= Court rejects J.M.
