    Silvercup Bread

    Anyone remember Silvercup Bread ? My mom used to like Silvercup because it waqs one of the few commercially available breads that would really toast up nice and dark and still retain a good consistency.

    Oh, yea. Silvercup Bread!!!!

    They might be most famouse for the Silvercup Rocket. Walking through that at the Michigan State Fair in '57 or '58 was one of the highlights of my childhood!





    And the bread? Guess it was OK....interchangable with Wonder, Tastee (Baked while you sleep), etc.

    Never even heard of it. Must be one of those regional brands that's since been folded into one of the big bakery conglomerates.
    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.

    The WBNY QSL card reminds me: I got a reception report via eQSL from a SWLer in the Netherlands. I thought that was pretty cool, having been on the other side of things for years as an SWLer myself. I sent him a real card.

    The way I remember it was better than Wonder. But Wonder is better than Wonder of today. These days Wonder bread is not bread.

    I've been trying to make my own biscuit recipe from scratch. Last batch tasted like Saltine Cracker Biscuits.
