| Business Combination, Asset Acquisition, Transaction between Entities under Common Control, and Joint Venture Formation [Abstract] | |
| Acquisition and Divestitures | Acquisition and Divestitures During the first quarter of fiscal 2026, we completed the sale of our United States yogurt business to Groupe Lactalis S.A. and recorded a pre-tax gain of $1,046.5 million. During the third quarter of fiscal 2025, we completed the sale of our Canada yogurt business to Sodiaal International and recorded a pre-tax gain of $95.9 million. In the first quarter of fiscal 2026, we recorded a sale price adjustment that resulted in a $7.9 million increase to the pre-tax gain. During the third quarter of fiscal 2025, we acquired NX Pet Holding, Inc., representing Whitebridge Pet Brands’ North American premium cat feeding and pet treating business, for a purchase price of $1.4 billion (Whitebridge Pet Brands acquisition). We financed the transaction with cash on hand and new debt. We consolidated Whitebridge Pet Brands into our Consolidated Balance Sheets and recorded goodwill of $1,086.7 million, an indefinite-lived intangible asset for the Tiki Pets brand totaling $289.0 million, and a finite- lived customer relationship asset of $31.0 million. The goodwill is included in the North America Pet segment and is not deductible for tax purposes. The pro forma effects of this acquisition were not material. The consolidated results are reported in our North America Pet operating segment on a one-month lag. In fiscal 2026, we recorded a $31.9 million decrease to goodwill, primarily related to adjustments to certain purchase accounting liabilities upon finalization of income tax returns recorded in the second quarter of fiscal 2026. On March 16, 2026, subsequent to the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2026, we entered into a definitive agreement to sell our business in Brazil to Café Três Corações S.A. (3corações) for a base purchase price of R$800.0 million, subject to certain specified deductions and customary post-closing adjustments. The sale is anticipated to close by the end of calendar 2026, subject to regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions. We expect to record a pre-tax loss on the sale, which will include the recognition of accumulated foreign currency translation losses that totaled $622.1 million as of February 22, 2026. Additionally, as of February 22, 2026, we have $238.3 million of net deferred tax assets held in Brazil.

| Restructuring, Transformation, Impairment, and Other Exit Costs | Restructuring, Transformation, Impairment, and Other Exit Costs Restructuring, transformation, and impairment charges (recoveries) were as follows:
In the third quarter of fiscal 2026, we did not undertake any new restructuring or transformation actions. We recorded $25.1 million of restructuring charges in the third quarter of fiscal 2026 and $75.4 million of restructuring charges in the nine-month period ended February 22, 2026, related to the multi-year organizational initiative to increase the competitiveness of our supply chain approved in the second quarter of fiscal 2026. In the third quarter of fiscal 2026, we increased the estimate of restructuring charges that we expect to incur related to these supply chain actions due to the identification of additional opportunities. As a result, we expect to incur a total of approximately $96 million of restructuring charges for this initiative, of which approximately $28 million will be cash. These charges are expected to consist of approximately $66 million of asset write-offs and $30 million of other costs, including severance. We expect these actions to be completed by the end of fiscal 2029. We recorded $7.7 million of restructuring and transformation charges in the third quarter of fiscal 2026 and $47.9 million of restructuring and transformation charges in the nine-month period ended February 22, 2026, related to actions previously announced. We recorded a $0.6 million net recovery of restructuring charges in the third quarter of fiscal 2025 and $3.6 million of restructuring charges in the nine-month period ended February 23, 2025, related to restructuring actions previously announced. We expect these actions to be completed by the end of fiscal 2028. We paid net $67.1 million of cash in the nine-month period ended February 22, 2026, related to restructuring and transformation actions. We paid net $7.0 million of cash in the same period of fiscal 2025. In the second quarter of fiscal 2026, we recorded a $52.9 million non-cash impairment charge related to our Uncle Toby’s brand intangible asset. Please see Note 4 for additional information. Restructuring, transformation, and impairment charges (recoveries) are recorded in our Consolidated Statements of Earnings as follows:
The roll forward of our restructuring, transformation, and other exit cost reserves, included in other current liabilities, is as follows:
The restructuring, transformation, and other exit cost reserves balance as of February 22, 2026, is primarily related to severance costs. The charges recognized in the roll forward of our reserves for restructuring, transformation, and other exit costs do not include items charged directly to expense (e.g., asset write-offs, asset impairment charges, and the gain or loss on the sale of restructured assets) and other periodic exit costs recognized as incurred, as those items are not reflected in our restructuring, transformation, and other exit cost reserves on our Consolidated Balance Sheets.
