American Inventions, Tuesday, October 4, 2022
"Have you ever heard the saying 'the greatest thing since sliced bread?'" Steve asked, smiling softly at the class. "Turns out that sliced bread--a machine doing it--has only been around since 1927, which makes it younger than I am."
"It was invented by American inventor, Otto Rohwedder," Tony added. "It doesn't sound like a big deal, but pre-sliced bread was a novel thing for many people. They can't all be big ones, you know?"
"Well, if you have a dull knife and a need for a sandwich, two pieces of bread the same size can be a big deal," Steve countered, still smiling.
"So, in honor of the invention... we brought sandwiches for the class," Tony said brightly.
It was pretty much the limit of their cooking skills. "And when we go to France together next week, compare these to sandwiches on different types of bread, which are not on pre-sliced bread," Steve said. "And we can decide which way is better."
