Don’t worry, they made enough of them for 50 years, their average shelf life with all the preservatives.

The locally owned bakery in Dallas saw the writing on the wall, and sold out to Bimbo a few years ago.
Who was that?
To: Live and let live conservative
Mrs. Baird’s bakery.
“Mrs Baird’s Bakeries was founded in 1908 when Ninnie L. Baird and her family began baking bread for neighbors in their Fort Worth neighborhood. Today, Mrs Baird’s Bakeries is a division of Bimbo Bakeries USA, the Fort Worth-based subsidiary of Mexico-based Grupo Bimbo, one of the world’s leading baking companies.”

They also market under the following names: Oroweat, Bimbo, Tia Rosa, Entenmann’s, Thomas’ and Marinela.

"....lower-cost, non-union competitors...."Always means "Undocumented Tourists Working in Violation of the Law".
Shouldn't be a man, woman or child working for that company making a campaign donation to any Democrat or RINO.

Troubled Interstate Bakeries Corp., in bankruptcy since September 2004, early today said it is closing four bread bakeries in Southern California. Will they reopen as Tortilla Factories?

see #28..Better than a Moon Pie!!
Make it yourself..filling (one that uses fluff)available on line. Easy as making cookies. Grew up on these things.
Now they are hot on the "specialty" market like the reappearance of the gourmet cupcake.
To: Cowboy Bob
Will they reopen as Tortilla Factories? Not with the price of corn going up in the present ethanol rage. Corn being a food staple..corn products feed the poor, ethanol is not the solution.
""in a highly unequal contest between the poor having to compete for the basics on which they live, and the rich who want to burn it to run their cars."
Good article

The real question is: How many are actually bimbos? Let's be honest, and I hope this doesn't sound racist, but the average, illegal alien from Mexico just doesn't look like this...
I have my doubts as to the bimbo content of their products.
