Ex Long Islander here. Entenmann’s had produced wonderful baked products from their NY based operations. When they moved it to Florida the quality went down in large part due to the water. Entenmann’s products are now additionally worse since they sold out operations to an inferior company so it’s not just only the water. Sux that most of the time we often here stories of products getting produced worse than their earlier years.
My husband’s uncle used to work for Entenmann’s back in the day. His favorite favorite thing from there is the crumb cake. Now that they sold the business to Hostess, it’s no where near the quality it used to be. I still enjoy the big chocolate covered white donuts. We only get those for special occasions when there will be enough mouths to eat them all in a day or two, namely when our kids come to visit.
