NATIONAL FROZEN FOOD MONTH
(Mr. THOMPSON of Pennsylvania asked and was given permission to
address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. THOMPSON of Pennsylvania. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to
acknowledge National Frozen Food Month, and in doing so, one of my home
State's own frozen food companies, Better Baked Foods.
Headquartered in North East, Pennsylvania, in the Fifth District of
Pennsylvania, with facilities in Erie, Pennsylvania, and New York,
Better Baked Foods is currently celebrating its 50th anniversary.
Over the years, Better Baked has built a reputation as an affordable
option for nutritious snack foods. Today, the company proudly employs
over 300 associates who produce over 325,000 pieces of frozen French
bread pizzas, flatbreads, and breakfast sandwiches.
By devoting the necessary resources to its people, equipment, and
facilities, Better Baked is continually working to ensure that it meets
consumer demand and grows its operation.
I am proud to honor a company that is constantly innovating to
improve its products while also recognizing the hard work and the
efforts of its employees.
Mr. Speaker, in celebration of National Frozen Food Month, I wish to
applaud Better Baked Foods and the entire frozen food industry for
their hard work and continued contributions to strong local economies,
through jobs and quality, affordable meals for our Nation's consumers.
