Then, we'll see internet posts about how the dough was a foot long before it was kneaded and placed in the oven.
Gene, (and the rest of you) the bread
dough comes from the factory in
readymade sticks, Let them thaw out,
proof them, then bake them.

Last time I 'toured' a bread bakery, the dough was transported in large wheeled containers(large enough for use as a casket), allowed to rise under controlled temperature, then parceled out into 'bread pans' for baking.







But then that was when I was in grade school! :rolleyes:

Next thing is that they let the dough rise to over a foot and someone will sue because the sandwich is bigger than they paid for. Claiming the company is trying to get them fat without them knowing it.

And there will be a SHYSTER LAWYER to take on that suit. I think what the appeals judge said is spot on. Too bad there aren't more judges that think that way. Maybe if there were some of the shyster lawyers would think twice before taking a frivolous case.

Add the 'detail' that the SL have to pay court costs and a fine if case is 'judged' to be frivolous'. :cool:
