Ойын-сауық

It was the best thing since sliced bread until it wasn't! Ever wonder what happened to America's favorite loaf? Here's why Wonder Bread has been hitting the road instead of the shelves.

    Nope. Mostly because it's not soft like I remember it being when I was a kid. That, and, at Kroger it's $3.99 a loaf. I can get a loaf of the Private Selection Rustic White (which is SUPER soft and delicious) for $2.99. Wonder bread isn't worth it anymore.

    As a kid (70yrs old now) I loved Wonder Bread would always ask my mother to buy it. And it did taste good and had the most wonderful aroma when you opened the package. By the time I graduated HS (1971) it had changed the flavor, texture and the aroma was weak. And that made me take notice of the changes in food products. These very changes that my elders were always talking about, and me thinking they were just old folk. 🤦SMH

    It always was good, until the company closed down, sold, and the different companies that bought the recipes ended up not tasting as good. Same with Hostess products.

    Have to smile at this. Yes, Wonder Bread might not be a heath food, but when I see the long lines at fast food places, where they serve food that have almost 100% of your sodium and close to that for saturated fats, don't think Wonder Bread is the worst food.

    Most of the people who have gluten sensitivities don't actually have celiac disease nor is it the gluten itself which is causing problems. It's the fact that most commercially grown and processed wheat in the United States is treated with RoundUp (glyphosate) which is an herbicide but also kills insects. Some of that glyphosate ends up in the flour which is produced and when eaten will mess up the gut flora in our intestines, thus hurting our digestive tract.

    This Wonder-bashing could have been applied to sliced white bread in general. I’m not sure why Wonder has been singled out. Albeit small, white bread has its place. I can’t imagine a PB & J sandwich with anything else.

    I loved Wonder Bread when growing up. But, it doesn't look the same anymore. It seems too dry, not as fresh, it doesn't look the same color, and the slices look smaller. I don't care what the ingredients were. I just want the bread to be the same as it was, but it doesn't appear to be. I know how companies can get... buy cheaper ingredients, use different ingredients because they know better, and cut corners to make a larger profit. At a local HyVee grocery store, the price is $2.99 for Classic White. I won't complain too much, since that's about the price of a lot of other breads. But I remember about 20 yrs ago, we were buying Wonder Bread for $1.29 for three loaves at the Thrift Store. That's probably why they went out of business.

    Have you tried keeping your bread in the refrigerator? I usually buy several loaves of whole wheat bread and keep one in the fridge to eat daily or when I need it, the others go in the freezer. I've been doing this for decades and the bread always tastes as good as fresh. They also last much longer than if left out on the counter.
