TIP TOP IDEA

Everytime I go to the shop, I see more and more white breads trying to be more like wholemeal bread. Here's an idea, STOP SELLING WHITE BREAD. It's not good for anyone, it's over processed crap, full of sugar and bleached flour. Cardboard has more taste and nutritional value. What's wrong with brown bread, it's all my kids have ever eaten and I don't hear any complaints. Let's face facts, if you give your kids white bread, you're neglecting them.

I can hear the word "neglect" ringing loudly in my ear....

There are a few more things you could add to that.

I think that people have the right to choose.

But when it comes to your kids who can't choose for themselves, then shouldn't the parents make the right one for them? Obviously we all give our kids treats and food that isn't exactly good for them, but bread is such a fundamental and so easy to get right. If you never give them white in the first place, then they'll never expect or want it.

One very simple thing we can do right by our kids.

I'm not arguing that it is not the best choice, but then neither is drinking beer, smoking cigarettes, eating chocalate (esp. white), potato crisps, lollies, meat pies, hot dogs etc, etc. If we stopped selling all these things we'd undoubtedly be a healthier nation/world.

But one wonders if living in such a nanny state is where I'd enjoy living?

I also wonder what would happen if Tip Top came knocking asking a certain rep. company to look after their bread what would happen?

Just wait, the nanny state is fast approaching yet we keep voting the same way!

As for food manufacturers, they're just making what the consumer wants.

Generally good, healthy food is more expensive than junk food and that, compounded by a more self indulgent and generally more lazy populace is why white bread is such a sales winner.
