We know all about that.
And so I see a world of innovation opportunity, whether it is a small, you know, growing brand like think about Cholula or Frank's Red Hot or my mustard.
Those are really great, high potential brands around the world that we see a lot of growth.
And so we see a lot more new penetration.
But there's also innovation opportunities behind brands like Hellmann's where you're still going to want to be a loyal user.
But it's also a lot of new flavor opportunities there, too.
Well, we consider both, actually, as we think about growing the business.
It is about growing the brands organically.
That's really important.
It's also important to grow through volume.
And sometimes there are opportunities where you see brands like we did with Cholula a couple of years ago.
We thought this brand has the ability to take off globally.
That has to be in our portfolio.
You know, we're really focused very exclusively, and that's why I think is really the most important part of this combination is we're dedicated to flavor.
And we've been very, very focused on that.
Well, we're certainly watching that closely.
And the price of oil obviously affects a lot of that.
We're finding a way to work through that, you know, and every company is trying to find a way to make sure we work through that.
But this is one where we have to think about value itself, making sure we also find other ways to offset those input costs.
And that's the way we're dealing with this current situation.
