🌭 Happy National Hot Dog Day! In Chicago, the hot dog debate is serious business. A classic Chicago-style dog? Absolutely. Ketchup on a hot dog? We know this one might start a conversation. 😉 No matter your topping preferences, every great hot dog starts with a quality bun. For 140 years, Gonnella Baking Company has been providing premium buns and rolls that help our retail and foodservice partners deliver memorable meals with the quality and consistency customers expect. So we have to ask… 🌭 What belongs on the perfect hot dog? 🌭 And the bigger question… ketchup: yes or no? #NationalHotDogDay #PremiumBuns #Foodservice #RetailBakery #Gonnella #WeBakeToDiffer #140YearsIsAllYouKnead

This Fourth of July, we're celebrating two milestones that reflect the spirit of America—250 years of our nation and 140 years of Gonnella Baking Company. In 1886, the Statue of Liberty was gifted to the United States and dedicated in New York Harbor, becoming an enduring symbol of freedom, opportunity, and hope for generations to come. 🗽 That same year, Alessandro Gonnella sold his first loaf of bread in Chicago, beginning a journey that would grow into a family-owned and operated baking company serving customers across the country. 🥖 As we celebrate America's 250th anniversary, we're reminded that our story is part of a larger American story—one built on hard work, innovation, resilience, and opportunity. From our family to yours, we wish you a safe and happy Fourth of July! 🎆 #FourthOfJuly #America250 #Gonnella #140YearsIsAllYouKnead #FamilyOwned #MadeInTheUSA #AmericanHeritage #BakingHistory
