Entemann's isn't bad but it can't compare to Freihofer's chocolate chip
cookies or in this season Freihofer's hot cross buns. Neither make it

Both now are owned by Bimbo Bakeries. How the hell did that company
avoid being canceled by the bimbos?

 
It's a multinational Mexican co.

So it is.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bimbo_Bakeries_USA

"The name "Bimbo" was first coined in 1945 when the company switched from
Super Pan S.A.[clarification needed] A blend of the words "bingo" and
"Bambi",[9] the name's innocent, childlike associations fit the image that
the company wished to build. The English word "bimbo", with its negative
connotations, has no corollary in Spanish."


Car manufacturers have also picked inappropriate names for models
targeting a non-English market. The perils of being a multinational.
