There's whole generations out there who've never known the delights of sitting in a pram with a loaf of fresh bread & pulling the crunchy crust off it & eating it in handfuls. Or the joys of cutting thin slices for sarnies & thick ones for toast. :(

Dunno, me Mum supplied that. But there was a similar thread in TOP where another old codger remembered doing the same thing in his yoof.
