One of things I love about your show is that you show small town businesses. I live in a small town in Michigan and worry a lot about the small businesses in town. We have a wonderful bakery, but my neighbor was so excited about a chain donut shop coming to town.
Love how the dad still wears the old style hat!! The days of the family businesses are few and far between so let's support em cuz that's Americana right there!!
A bakery where they know your name and are eager to serve and satisfy their customers. You don't see that very much anymore. Lots of experience in the bakery business.
Family owned bakery are always the best because they know what hospitality is all about, we have a family owned pizzeria where I live & the owners know everyone by name.
I love hearing about these Mom and Pop places. We used to have one in the city I grew up in but they finally closed. I can remember going in there and it smelled so good! You won't find baked goods like this at Walmart or service either!
worked in a bakery when I was 16, tough business. Work all night, make deliveries in the morning go home crash come back in later in the evening start over.
Taking the time with your family and learning who to make ,the Bakery work for the people and doing the job with love heart,that’s what bring the people back.
What a great story and family. After I watched the video I ran down to the local HEB, Lake Jackson, and picked up a bag of Slaton's Vanilla and Gingerbread wafers. They were great. I would love to visit your bakery some day.
Awesome! Another generation preserving their grandparent's dream.. If you're passing through Slaton to or from Lubbock, pull off the road and stop, it's not hard to find. You will not be disappointed. I love their sand tarts, they remind me of my mom's. I hope they fire up their ovens for many more years to come. Those old scales and other equipment they still use probably still works better and is more dependable than any new equipment on the market.
I love your program, but then my family dates back to 1840 Texas history. So it all interesting to me. My Great Grandma built a sod house when she first came.
My family owned a bakery just like this. Every move, every item on the shelves in the back and the front are identical to my life for forty plus years. Two of those scales are in my kitchen along with the biggest rolling pin you've ever seen! Your wafers sound amazing. Gotta love that wholesale, right? I can smell the place right now 💝 Love the overseas caps! Keep going, it's a dying art.
I have been going to the bakery for over 45 years. My children always enjoyed walking to the bakery after school from Eblen Pharmacy where I worked, and they always brought me a thumbprint cookie. I sure miss them since I moved away, and then I found the vanilla wafers on the shelf at United in Amarillo and now at a bakery in Paris Texas!!
Its awesome to see that there are still folks carrying on the trades their family was part of and skills they've honed. It's also nice to see the kitchen the products we enjoy come from. Beautiful! Much love from Southeast Texas ❤
It sounds like a nice place but just wait till Joe Biden and Kamala Harris get into office with Doctor Freud she they'll make it is unnecessary business and tell them they have to be shut down good old times are gone when these left this lunatic politicians take over
I remember when the bakery was on Division St behind West Ward Elementary in a little building. I can say with 99% certainty that the first chocolate donut I ever ate and one I would buy today from the Slaton Bakery taste the same. There isn’t any pastry, cookie or bread that’s not good. The thumbprint cookies, Barney bread, jelly johns, cream cheese turnovers, wedding cookies, raisin bread...it’s all good! I miss it!
Strangest sounding announcer doing the narration, like he is trying to sound like what he may think a narrator is supposed to sound like, low tones, false, dramatic.
Have you ever seen more expressionless faces in your life? They're talking about their business in monotone and no facial expressions whatsoever, weird!
I live in South Carolina, born and raised, after watching Texas County reporter im 100% positive Texas is the best state in the country
"he's a smart cookie"- the highest compliment you can pay a bakery entrepreneur.
So happy some kids still have RESPECT! for older folks! God Bless this family!
That kid was raised right. I could only hope my kids will think of me that way when I'm older.
One of things I love about your show is that you show small town businesses. I live in a small town in Michigan and worry a lot about the small businesses in town. We have a wonderful bakery, but my neighbor was so excited about a chain donut shop coming to town.
This was such an amazing story. We need to go back to supporting these types of business. God bless them and long live the Slaton Bakery
Great video. Loving family. Delicious baked goods. Thanks for sharing. 😎
My grandad lived down the road fifteen miles or so from slaton. We ate slaton bakery many days. Great story about great folks.
Gayyyyy jus admit if u sat ona fire hydrant to the concrete you wouldnt feel it
What a joy for this guy to honor his parents the way he does. It's a blessing. U will make a wonderful dad if u r not yet one.😊
Love how the dad still wears the old style hat!! The days of the family businesses are few and far between so let's support em cuz that's Americana right there!!
May the MOST HIGH continue to BLESS this BEAUTIFUL FAMILY!
A bakery where they know your name and are eager to serve and satisfy their customers. You don't see that very much anymore. Lots of experience in the bakery business.
Parenting done right.... The son is an absolute gentleman 👍 what an awesome family
I'm eating their ginger snaps right now. Delicious. I didn't know this story. I'll keep buying them.
You’re awesome for doing so

There is nothing more important than family, tradition, and a legacy is pretty great too.
Family owned bakery are always the best because they know what hospitality is all about, we have a family owned pizzeria where I live & the owners know everyone by name.
What a great family!! They are blessed!!!
I love hearing about these Mom and Pop places. We used to have one in the city I grew up in but they finally closed. I can remember going in there and it smelled so good! You won't find baked goods like this at Walmart or service either!
These are great people . I wish I lived close to them I would spend money there. Where have all the good times gone?
worked in a bakery when I was 16, tough business. Work all night, make deliveries in the morning go home crash come back in later in the evening start over.
Love EVERYTHING about this beautiful story!
Had a bizarre situation yesterday and stopped in Slaton...the kindest people in TEXAS!
I grew up there,,,, 😀
I remember that display case in the store!
Once again a Great Family Business! How WONDERFUL to see the generational history success in business AND FAMILY!! 😍🙏🤩
Wow! At first I was inclined to pass on this video. Thought I’d watch for a minute and I was hooked.
Awesome I hope you all keep growing strong
So wonderful. I yearn for this kind of life.
Go for it Mark You can do it 👍

His parents are wonderful role models for him, and people in general all over the world.
I love your program, but then my family dates back to 1840 Texas history. So it all interesting to me. My Great Grandma built a sod house when she first came.
That was such a wonderful, touching, Beautiful video about respecting your parents and your elders and cherishing your family.
This story is so touching and wonderful a breath of fresh air.
These kind beautiful people certainly deserve to be blessed❤️

Keep going, it's a dying art.
Delightful story of a charming family owned and run Texas business!
How very interesting. Loved seeing the operation as well as all the baked goods.
Wonderful old time bakery and the best bakery in this region of Texas! Wonderful place to go!
I have been going to the bakery for over 45 years. My children always enjoyed walking to the bakery after school from Eblen Pharmacy where I worked, and they always brought me a thumbprint cookie. I sure miss them since I moved away, and then I found the vanilla wafers on the shelf at United in Amarillo and now at a bakery in Paris Texas!!
What a lovely son and a beautiful family. I just went that bakery this weekend. The choices there yum 😛
Beautiful!!!
Picked up a bag of the Vanilla Wafers at HEB just to try them, and I'm glad I did! Excellent cookie!
What a great family story! Congratulations from Halifax Nova Scotia Canada.
Its awesome to see that there are still folks carrying on the trades their family was part of and skills they've honed. It's also nice to see the kitchen the products we enjoy come from. Beautiful!
Much love from Southeast Texas ❤
How nice i wished i lived near them but will definitely look for their products!
I dont know why these stories are so touching
What a beautiful story😅
Beautiful! Their vanilla wafers will change how you experience homemade!
Beautiful
Beautiful legacy 😊 Thank you lord.
I love Slaton baked goods I buy them all the time.
It sounds like a nice place but just wait till Joe Biden and Kamala Harris get into office with Doctor Freud she they'll make it is unnecessary business and tell them they have to be shut down good old times are gone when these left this lunatic politicians take over
Thank you for beautiful story.
Continuity and community. Going away sooooo, sooooo fast.
What a great story!
Thank you, TCR

i love this
Fantastic 👍👍👍
My favorite vanilla wafer cookies at HEB!
So Awesome 👌
What kind of sad individual dislikes a story like this?
I live in San Antonio Texas so I'll definitely be looking for those wafer cookies 😊
Such a blessed and special family.. wish mine wasnt so messed up.
Nice story
Old Fashion👌
That’s the American dream building up a business with your family and community and being able to pass it along.
Nice
Financial success in the right hands he's a wonderful thing for the individual and those around him/her.
How do you keep such a large menu fresh? Must have huge patronage!
Good kid.
I can't believe anyone could vote this down. Shame on you...
Mohammedans voted thumbs down!
I know! We all love these All American stories of great people and their wonderful businesses!!
Super Dave of course
Always someone who woke up on the wrong side and hit that button.
Must be Democrat
So true
When he said "your parents and beat friends" 😭😭😭😭😭
I saw my brother :3 ♡ ♡ ♡
My daddy always told me if it's not broken don't fix it
Thumbprint and iced cookies the best
Man that stuff looks great, much, MUCH better than the factory made stuff.
I saw the wafers for sale at the State Fair and I did not buy them!! I didn't know this story till today---
Mext time i go to heb im gonna look for their products
🙏
Can one get those vanilla cookies by mail?
I think you have to call and place an order.
Ragnar Lothbrok If I have anything to do with it!😄
The vintage stuff is worth a fortune, believe it or not.
serious business. Would they serve freshly baked French croissants with a cup of coffee?
I live here
Only people who hate themselves voted this down
Good stuff... I've eaten their cakes... delicious....
Will definitely look for their wafers at HEB.
I should really move to Texas. Would you all accept a hard working guy from Nova Scotia? Ross Perreault was my 5th cousin if that helps lol

Being a Baker myself if I worked as slow as them I would have been sacked within a week must be great being the boss
Oh how do you know they didn’t just slow down while being filmed. Get back Loretta!
The psychedelic match adversely trick because deodorant considerably dislike including a deafening peak. second-hand, graceful budget
Are your wafers fat free and low sodium?
😂😂
This is wat maadevand makes America great not mcdonald food look alike
It concerns me that I see lots of touching of dough without gloves.
Oven kills germs.
