42. When you go to buy bread in the grocery store, have you
ever wondered which is the freshest, so you "squeeze" for
freshness or softness? Did you know that bread is delivered
fresh to the stores five days a week? Monday, Tuesday,
Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Each day has a different color
twist tie. They are: Monday
= Blue,
Tuesday
= Green,
Thursday
= Red, Friday
= White and
Saturday
= Yellow.
So if today was Thursday, you would want red twist tie; not white
which is Fridays (almost a week old)! The colors go
alphabetically by color Blue-
Green
-
Red
- White
-
Yellow,
Monday through Saturday. Very easy to remember. I thought this
was interesting. I looked in the grocery store and the bread
wrappers DO have different twist ties, and even the ones with the
plastic clips have different colors. You learn something new
everyday! Enjoy fresh bread when you buy bread with the right
color on the day you are shopping.
