When you go to buy bread in the grocery store, have you ever wondered<br />which is the freshest, so you "squeeze" for freshness or softness? Did you<br />know that bread is delivered fresh to the stores five days a week? <br />Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Each day has a different<br />color twist tie. They are: Monday = Blue, Tuesday = Green, Thursday = Red<br />Friday = White and Saturday = Yellow. So if today was Thursday, you would<br />want red twist tie; not white which is Fridays (almost a week old)! The<br />colors go alphabetically by color Blue- Green - Red - White - Yellow, Monday<br />through Saturday. Very easy to remember. I thought this was interesting. I<br />looked in the grocery store and the bread wrappers DO have different twist<br />ties, and even the ones with the plastic clips have different colors. You<br />learn something new everyday! Enjoy fresh bread when you buy bread with the<br />right color on the day you are shopping.
