The Most Republican Company? The Makers of Wonder Bread

The most Republican-leaning company in the country, based on political donations, isn’t Koch Industries. It’s the company that makes Wonder Bread.

The political action committee of Flowers Foods, a Georgia company that produces the pillowy sandwich bread, Tastykakes and Nature’s Own baked goods, has given more than 99 percent of its political contributions since 1979 to Republicans. Only three Democratic congressional candidates have gotten money from its PAC since 1984, and not one in the past 20 years.

Since Grupo Bimbo bought Mrs. Bairds, it is not close to the same.

Sunbeam is excellent.

When I was a kid in elementary school, we took a field trip to the nearest Wonder Bread plant over in Orange County, and each of us got to take home a miniature loaf of the bread in it’s own little replica wrapper. Of course Wonder Bread ruled in the 50’s, it was thought to be actual food and it squished up better than most breads, good for throwing, rolling or even eating.

Now I know why I love Nature’s Own Honey Wheat Bread. Addictive.

Mmmmmm... Tastykakes....

Finally, a logical reason to initiate a TastyKake diet!

P.S. LOVED their blueberry pies...
