Sliced bread turns 85!!!!

[koalabear]

Bread has been around for ages, but commercially sliced and packaged bread doesn't even have a century under its belt yet.

Sliced bread, a phenomenon so beloved that it spawned its own "greatest thing" catchphrase, turned 85 years old this week, The Atlantic notes. The first wrapped package of sliced bread was sold on July 7, 1928, by the Chillicothe Baking Company in Missouri.

i hope someone mentions that "that's the best thing since sliced bread!" saying so that i can show off and say "indeed, and did you know that was exactly 85 years ago today!?!"

I only eat fresh bread.

Just think about all the cellulose-wood fiber you are missing out on.
