Which Wich launched its philanthropic campaign, Project PB&J®, in 2014 where for every PB&J sandwich purchased in a Which Wich location, the company donates a PB&J to a local cause and banks one for their global initiative trust. As a launch for 2015, the company made and donated 26,710 peanut butter and jelly sandwiches to Dallas-based non-profit organizations on Thursday January 15, 2015. The sandwiches were made during the chain’s ‘Spreading Party’ at the Sheraton Dallas, where more than 500 franchisees, corporate staff and volunteers gathered and shattered the existing Guinness World Record of 20,975 sandwiches made in an hour. During the hour-long creation of the 26,710 sandwiches, the team used 2,210 loaves of bread, 2,550 pounds of peanut butter, and 2,065 pounds of jelly. By the end of the hour, all of the sandwiches were wrapped and packaged for immediate delivery to a variety of area charities and organizations including, The Salvation Army DFW, Our Calling, The SoupMobile, Boys & Girls Club of Greater Dallas, Big Brothers Big Sisters Lone Star, Foster Kids Charity, Genesis Women’s Shelter & Support, Ronald McDonald House of Dallas, Dallas Casa, The Bridge North Texas, Metrocrest Services. The brand has a goal of making and donating over 1-million sandwiches in 2015.

In 1985, foodies in Seattle, WA wanted to make “the world’s greatest cinnamon roll” for a new brand they were developing. They hired a local baker, and after three months, hundreds of kitchen experiments, and many trips to Indonesia to find the best, most flavorful cinnamon, the team perfected the Cinnabon recipe and opened the first bakery on December 5, 1985. The Cinnabon brand has become world famous, with more than 850 bakeries in over 35 countries serving baked goods such as the famous Classic Roll and various specialty blended beverages.
