Thomas'
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Thomas' is a brand of english muffins and bagels in North America. It is owned by George Weston Limited bakery, which also owns Entenmann's, Boboli, Strohmann, and Arnold's bread companies. It advertises as having "nooks and crannies" in the muffins, making it less dense than competitive brands. The company also produces toasting/swirl breads, pitas, and wraps.
The company was founded by Samuel Bath Thomas (1855–1919). In 1874, he emigrated from England to New York City and began working in a bakery. By 1880, he had purchased his own bakery, where he featured his namesake muffins. The company, S.B. Thomas, Inc., was incorporated by his family after his death in 1922.
[edit] Bagelbread Squares
Recently, Thomas' introduced a bagel variation called Bagelbread; a package of six pre-sliced bagel squares.
