Did You Know? Bread is one of the oldest human foods — people have been baking bread for at least 14,000 years! Bread rises because yeast is a tiny living organism that eats sugar and releases carbon dioxide gas, making thousands of tiny bubbles that puff the dough up. The expression "the greatest thing since sliced bread" comes from 1928, when pre-sliced bread was first sold in the United States and people thought it was absolutely amazing.
