Rep Power: 107 | <b>Sliced Bread</b> Otto Frederick Rohwedder invented the bread slicer, which he started working on in 1912. At first, Rohwedder came up with the idea of a device that held the slices together with hat pins (not a success). In 1928, he designed a machine that sliced and wrapped the bread to prevent the sliced bread from going stale. Pre-sliced bread was popularized by Wonder Bread in 1930, helping to spread the toaster's popularity further. |

Rep Power: 21 | On the most part, I, like most other shoppers, purchase pre-sliced bread off of the shelf. There are those rare occasions, that I go to the Deli and purchase a whole bread, but I do have the Deli employees slice it for me. It is on those very rare occasions, that my wife gets me to bake a bread, that I must resort to the slicer. I have found that I cannot slice a loaf of bread by hand. |

Rep Power: 21 | I think I try to cover the bases. I make sure that the makers of the bread are paid and their slicers are paid for. As for the Deli people, they are covered by the grocery store. I just slip them an extra buck or two. When I slice the bread, I get a sore hand or cut finger. So I guess you can say all the bases are covered. |
