Bimbo

I have a question about the word Bimbo. I though it meant child, but now I can't find it in any dictionary, and also I heard it's a potato chip company in South America. Can anyone enlighten me on this subject?

Bimbo has two possible meanings (for me)
1.- in Spain, "Bimbo" is a bread company http://www.bimbo.com/html/frames.html

2.- "stupid" young woman/man

Perhaps you mix it with Italian (bambino-->baby,kid)

Hope it helps

I remember (has nothing to do with this):
Georgie Dann (a composer of summer-songs with success here) has a song called "Let's dance the bimbo"
