Yes, Dusty, I'm w/u. A thick slab of white bread, toasted, buttered, slathered w/jam of choice....[sorry. excuse me. salivating....] Okay, w/re back. I thought I was going to turn you on to a remarkable white bread called Wonder Bread. Do u know those mattresses--Posturpedic here, don't know in UK) that squish, forming/deforming themselves to the body aboard them? Wonder Bread was like a squishy mattress. If u took a loaf in yr hands and compressed it, I'm sure it would have squashed down to, liike, an inch, no lie (tho I never tried this) Notice that "would have" in the last sentence. Yes, to my horror, in conducting in-depth research for your question, I discovered Wonder Bread has gone the way of the Dodo! U must understand that in post WWII, it wld be a rare American school child's lunch box that did not contain a Wonder Bread-ed sandwich. Mine was one such. I can remember looking on w/envy while schoolmate munched on Wonder Bread so white it seemed to glow. My mother scorned Wonder Bread. We were fed the sort of white breads ur doubtless referring to. Which were fine but didn't have that nice squishiness and glow. There was no wheat bread in 1950's-'60's America. I don't know why. It came in the Isle of Wight and Woodstock era. U either had white or pumpernickel (Yuck!) I think Wonder Bread became the Dodo of breads because it became a joke of the snooty wheat bread crowd (like me mum). Sales fell off a cliff. It's parent, Hostess Brands declared bankruptcy. Then, in one final twist, Hostess--the carcass, that is--was bought by the largest bakery in the world: the Mexican Grupo Bimbo. There the trail goes cold for the iconic bread of the American post WWII era. Grupo Bimbo actually has thriving business in the U.S.--but no Wonder. Damn it, Dusty! U've done it again. How could such a delightfully simple--and tasty--subject lead to an answer of this appalling length? I feel spent. I'm going to have a nice tea accompanied by.... Next Time I will attempt to put strict word production limits in place. Do u think u could make yr questions less interesting? -- C
