That is not entirely correct. Grupo Bimbo has a bakery in Elkhart, IN. I imagine they have bakeries all over this country. In Elkhart they make Thomas English muffins.

Thank you! It's not enough to say that we tax sugar here. We have a tariff on sugar and the amount we are allowed to import is limited.
