Inside the Wonder Bread Factory: Why They Baked 50 Million Loaves Weekly—Then Added Sawdust Subscribe to the channel: @LostFoundations Since 1921, Continental Baking's Indianapolis factory produced Wonder Bread—the first sliced bread (literally inventing the phrase "best thing since"), the soft white loaf in red-yellow-blue polka dots that built "strong bodies 12 ways" through vitamin fortification, feeding American children 50 million loaves per week from a facility that ran 24/7 making bread so consistent every slice was identical. But when Interstate Bakeries bought Wonder in 1995, efficiency experts discovered they could replace some flour with cellulose (wood pulp) to reduce costs by 8 cents per loaf, add high-fructose corn syrup to extend shelf life, pump in dough conditioners to speed production—and by 2004 the bread that "built strong bodies" was contributing to childhood obesity and diabetes, sales collapsed as parents rejected what they discovered was barely bread, and the Indianapolis factory closed while artisan bakeries charged $8 for what Wonder sold for 99 cents, proving Americans would pay more for real bread than cheap sawdust wrapped in nostalgia.
