Golden Flake Snack Foods, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Golden Enterprises, is a producer of potato chips, tortilla chips, corn chips, cheese curls, fried pork skins, and other snack foods in the southern United States. The Golden Flake brand (originally known as Magic City Foods) was established in the 1920s by Mose Lischkoff and Frank Mosher in a Birmingham, Alabama grocery store basement. The company changed its name from Magic City Foods to Golden Flake, Inc. in 1957 after having been bought and sold by several different owners. One of its most famous owners was Paul "Bear" Bryant, the legendary head football coach for the Alabama Crimson Tide. For Years the potato chips, along with Coca-Cola, were marketed with the slogan, "'Great Pair' says 'the Bear'".In 1968, the company went public, changing its name again to Golden Enterprises, Inc. It is still publicly traded today, listed in the NASDAQ under the symbol "GLDC".

From what I read this morning they found the gun in the pond, found an unspent cartridge in his car, have him on surveillance tapes buying duct tape and rope, the entry wound was from a weapon pressed right up to his head, and the tape and rope was very loosely tied. Also, they recovered his computer flash drive that had several drafts of the letter that was sent to his office that was derotatory toward Golden Flakes, Inc. Yep, I’d say he committed suicide!

A label off of a Golden Flake bag was stuck to the roof of his mouth.

There were no signs of a struggle against the tape or the rope.

Bashinksy, a 63-year-year-old lawyer and financial adviser, disappeared March 3. His body was found March 15 in the golf course pond.
