Depends on what degree the “on site bakery” needs to resemble an actual one.

I can see mcds adding a glass window with some muffins and calling that a “bakery” just to skirt the law.

Test_Tickles ,

And don’t forget any place that toasts your bread. Basically, all a place needs is a toaster oven and suddenly they are exempt.

Subway already bakes cookies. Starbucks bakes a bunch of stuff. I’m sure McDonald’s would be happy to put a single tiny oven to bake their apple pies in each location.

Apple pies aren’t bread per the FDA definition of “bread”, see here:

www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/…/CFRSearch.cfm?CF…

These places would need to start producing full loaves to meet that definiton

Maggoty ,

It’s a state law. It’s the definition there that matters.

Baking a loaf once a day isn’t all that hard especially if you just bought a bread maker. This could easily be like the era before internet porn where porn stores would have some regular books in the window.

Um… subway also bakes the bread lol. They get the dough in boxes and bake them daily.

The cookies though, idk about Subway but McDonalds gets them premade and throws them in the oven for a bit.

"Sir, I ran the numbers. We can expand the restaurant to add ovens for the bakery to sell fresh bread. It’ll cost us $2,000,000 for the expansion and we’re projecting to lose half a million a year in operating costs. Or we can just pay our dozen employees an extra $2 an hour, making our employees happier, increasing retention rates, reducing training costs, and all in all just being the right thing to do "

“Good work, Johnson. I want those ovens up and running by Monday.”

Ding ding ding. Give this person a fresh pastry.

put an easy bake oven next to the microwave, make one batch a day.
