I wish I'd thought of that - but my vote goes to those little curled up rolls of butter that used to come with the sliced bread in Lyons

It must be sandwich fillings... see, they must've been invesnted first, then sliced bread came along and made the sandwich an everyday item. In fact without them, sliced bread would be toast

The breadknife.

Unsliced bread surely?

I like the wording...for those too stupid...or lazy, to sew a button on

I've just realised...the Buttoneer came well after sliced bread

Talking of slicing bread. I've got one of these bread slicing doo-hickeys from Lakeland. It actually works. Otherwise, if I make my own and try to cut it it looks like it's been attacked by a honey badger.

"Do you struggle when cutting bread?" Give me strength...

And nobody would have been able to earn an honest crust from a sandwich business.
