I moved to Waco in 88 and discovered Jesse’s and got to know Jesse. A good man. A good family. A great business. Jesse’s loss was a tragedy to the entire community, but this fine family worked through their pain and almost 20 years later the business continues to thrive. I know Jesse would be proud. Congratulations on the 50 year anniversary.

Growing up in Waco, I remember going to Jesse’s often with my Dad to get maza and tortillas. Jesse was a very friendly man and had the respect of everyone in the community. I am glad to see that the business continued after his unfortunate death. Happy 50th Anniversary!

Moved to Waco 3 years ago, still hate Waco, but I will always LOVE Jesse’s tortillas and the staff there. They are the best and they have a fabulous product. I wish them the very best!!
