For more than 90 years Texans have enjoyed the products of Mrs. Baird's Bakeries, a company that offers several varieties of bread and bread products, including hot dog and hamburger buns, rolls, bagels, and tortillas. The company produces baked sweet goods for breakfast as well as for desert. Old-fashioned baking methods are still employed: dough is allowed to rise naturally and long rolls of bread dough are hand-twisted into loaves of bread. Mrs. Baird's Bakeries prides itself on "Quality, Freshness, and Service." Established in 1908, Mrs. Baird's was family-owned and -operated until Grupo Industrial Bimbo, a large Mexican baking company, acquired the company in 1998.~~from website
