Au Bon Pain...Say what?
So I did do some googling of Panera Bread. As you notice from my previous post, I took a quick glance at their stock performance. Another fun fact that was discovered in this googling: They used to be Au Bon Pain.
I had no idea about this connection until today. I am intrigued by this fact, nonetheless. I recall many trips to the Columbus City Center and frequenting the Au Bon Pain. I was a big fan back then...and clearly I am still a big fan.
