Question asked “What do you remember about bread or bread baking”.
About 60 years ago my mum let me go to the shop for the first time. I walked up the cinder track to the shop and asked for a white sliced loaf. I paid for it and pu the bread in the wax wrapper, tucked it uner my arm and held the change in my other hand. I ran all the way back to my mum, handed her the change and the wax wrapper that only had one crust in it. When I looked behind me there was a trail of white slices up the track.
