Breaducation

Bread was first made by the Ancient

Egyptians as far back as 8000BC!

Toasters were invented about 35 years before the first machines were made to slice bread.

One slice of white bread is enough to keep some adults running for 7 minutes!

The wheat produced by an acre/4,046m2 of land could feed a family of 4 for 10 years. If you drop a slice of buttered bread, there is an 80% chance that it will fall butter side down!

'The greatest thing since sliced bread' means that something is the best and most useful innovation invented in a long time.

The Sandwich is named after John Montagu, the 4th Earl of Sandwich, who lived in Sandwich in Kent, England
