Is it a wonder that kids always pick Wonder?

wonder bread

Of course we all know that whole grains breads are better for us, but in our heart of hearts, soft, sweet plain white bread tastes soooo much better. We may not ever admit that in this health-conscious world, but kids sure will.

The king of all white breads, Wonder Bread, has come up with a whole grain alternative, and CBS in Boston put it to the ultimate taste test with elementary school kids, pitting peanut butter and jelly sandwiches made with the original white bread against sandwiches made with the new whole grain bread.

Did we have any doubt that the Wonder white would win? 8 votes for white to 2 for the whole grain.

However, kids said they certainly wouldn't be opposed to the whole grain bread. That's a good start.

It may work in a sandwich, but for me the true test of any bread is whether I would be willing to eat it plain. Merely thinking about eating plain Wonder Bread makes me gag.

I can say that without being hugely smug because I actually live in Ann Arbor, where Zingerman's is, and used to receive free 'old' bread by living in a co-op.

Wonder's Whole White or whatever it is... I guess it's okay. My partner's a wonder bread addict and he hates it. I had a slice and it tasted like boring whole wheat bread, except it was white.
