[2] In The Netherlands, a similar biscuit, called Sultana, has been produced since 1935 by Verkade.

[7] In the United States, the Sunshine Biscuit Company for many years made a popular version of the Garibaldi with raisins which it called "Golden Fruit".

Sunshine was bought out by the Keebler Company which briefly expanded the line to include versions filled with other fruits.

The entire Golden Fruit product line was discontinued when the Keebler company became a division of Kellogg's in 2001.

[citation needed] Varieties covered with plain or milk chocolate have also been marketed in the past, but appear not to have been available for many years.
