The surprising history of sliced bread...

The surprising history of sliced bread...  I was very surprised to learn that the first commercially sliced bread was produced in 1928.  I would have guessed much earlier than that!  I wouldn't have guessed that being sliced was the main claim to Wonder Bread when it first came out, either.  One thing that didn't surprise me: at one point, the government banned sliced bread.  The stupidity of government is eternal...
