In 1943, the US banned the production of sliced bread as a wartime cost-cutting measure. Its disappearance from shelves did not go over well with Americans, who were already used to the convenience of pre-sliced loaves. After two months of public ire, the ban was lifted, with the New York Times announcing, "Sliced Bread Put Back on Sale; Housewives' Thumbs Safe Again." |
