Kilpatrick's, as far as I remember, was one of the first breads to go
National (US) taking advantage of mass production methods, and providing
sliced bread to the market. At least that's what my fuzzy memory recalls.
It didn't transition very easily to a consumer that had choices and was
gobbled up by a competitor and then asset stripped.
As far as OM's olive loaf; my memories from childhood also ranked it higher
than I think of it nowadays. I prefer Boar's Head olive loaf but don't
appreciate paying $13.95 / lb. so it's only purchased when it goes on sale.
As far as the Miracle Whip and Mustard mix, I got that from my Sainted
MotherT who was an East Coast Gal originally. The Sylvania shipped her out
to the Left Coast and she never looked East again.
