People my age start checking for signs. I remember when Mary Bolton was so disheartened when signing her check Mary Butter at the checkout lane, when buying some. Hey, we all make mistakes.
Still, I was worried when Deke the Geek kept telling me about this Bizmo in the middle of our local supermarket, and I kept going there, in a trance no doubt, and not seeing it.
So today I made a special point of looking it up. Franz was important in my childhood, before I left for Italy. Our Markham elementary school, it had to have been, did a field trip. A real bread factory. Impressive.
I've always enjoyed seeing things being made. Kim Jong Un must really enjoy all those tours he gets, of factories, as a part of his job.
I went on some tours of Chinese factories in the 1970s, during the Four Modernizations. We were looked up to, as a tour group, as a possible source of ideas. Mostly high school teachers, from the bases, with me and Glenn Baker tagging along as diplomatic corps (expat brats).
I bought a loaf on the spot, in recognition of the company's acumen as much as anything. Of course it's a hippie bus. No reason to go overboard and go all Vortex. Grateful Dead bread sells itself.

Meanwhile, back at Starbucks, Deke the Geek was catching up on Adweek. We did a mini-photo-shoot right there and then.
