Oh Wonder Bread…you make PB&J so yummy! YOU CAN WIN A WHOLE LOT OF IT!
I buy a wide variety of bread, ranging from 100% whole wheat, some “nutty” types to white. Luckily the kids aren’t picky about bread (they like it all AND I don’t even have to cut crusts!) but when I was a kid Wonder Bread was the bread for me! Give me a PB&J on Wonder Bread and it takes me back to my lunch box days. Paired with a cold glass of skim milk, it would be a lunch I could go for any day. We received a box with a Wonder Classic White and Wonder White Sandwich bread and I was really excited because sadly my regular grocery store doesn’t carry Wonder Bread! I made some PB&Js for dinner that night and it was a fun and yummy night. Wonder was the same as I remembered as a kid, BUT “now it has more calcium and vitamin D. Even though many of us recognize that getting our families (and ourselves!) the recommended daily amount of calcium is important, many people are still not getting enough. Now, Wonder is making it easier – one sandwich made with Wonder Classic or Wonder Classic Sandwich Bread has the calcium of a glass of milk and also provides a good source of vitamin D.”

WOW the Wonder Bread site really has some neat stuff, look what I found there:
Form a Wonder Bread sculpture.
What you’ll need:
Eight slices of Wonder Classic White Bread Half cup of white glue Waxed paper Flour
Acrylic paint Mixing bowl
How to make it:
1. Take eight slices of Wonder Classic White Bread out of the package. 2. Let the bread sit out at room temperature for 24 hours. 3. Lay a piece of waxed paper on the counter and dust it with flour. 4. Remove the crust on all eight slices of Wonder Bread. 5. Tear the bread into small pieces and drop it in a mixing bowl. 6. Add the half cup of glue to the bowl. 7. Mix with your hands until it sticks together. 8. Put the mixture on the waxed paper and form it into a ball. 9. Knead the ball for about five minutes until shiny.
10. Sculpt your masterpiece, sealing any unused clay in plastic while you work. 11. Let the sculpture dry overnight on a cookie sheet in an unlit oven. 12. Finish it off with acrylic paint. 13. Display your artwork as the table’s centerpiece.

John, I had a co-worker who made these wonder bread sculptures every year around the holidays. Her nativity scene was alway fantastic, sometimes all white, sometimes painted, but always with several dozen sculptures of people and animals etc…
My kids are very amused by the Wonderbread Coloring Book. Twenty loaves of Wonder Bread for free sounds like a Halloween Miracle.
Those of us who can eat bread around here would be very happy to win this contest.
Hi Heather, I was hesitant to enter since I won another of your excellent giveaway opportunities not too long ago. However, since you mentioned on Facebook that there are no entries so far, maybe it is OK for me to enter. I was interested to learn on the Wonderbread web site that they bake four types of wheat breads: Stoneground 100% Wheat, Soft Whole Wheat, Whole Grain Wheat, and Light Wheat. I make sandwiches for my husband to take to work for lunch, and he prefers those to be on wheat bread so I’m interested in all four of those varieties.
BTW, did Loretta the chicken recover?
Can you believe… I’ve never had Wonder Bread? They didn’t sell it in North Dakota in the early ’80s, and by the time we moved to Pennsylvania I was 10 and my sister was 13 so my parents were already buying wheat bread for us.
My friends in North Dakota did teach me to make fake leftse (a sweet Norwegian bread) by taking the crusts off a piece of white bread, rolling it flat, spreading it with butter, sprinkling it with sugar, and rolling it up to eat. Doesn’t work the same with wheat bread!
I don’t like bread much but after your article will try this wonder bread for once thanks for sharing
Will try to participate in the contest !!
I think it’s neat that Wonder bread has been an American icon for more than 85 years!
A woman my age should have the equivalent of 3 slices of whole grain bread each day to get enough whole grains.

We have always eaten Wonder Bread even since I was a young child. I found this information from their website: Now, Wonder® Classic White Bread and Wonder® Classic White Sandwich Bread have even more calcium. Just two slices include all the calcium of an eight ounce glass of milk. And those same loaves now have vitamin D. Vitamin D helps your bodymaintain the right levels of calcium and phosphorus, too.
I had no idea there were so many recipes on this site. Thanks for the introduction. I especially love the Wonder Bread Kid Sandwiches idea.
This is a great giveaway. I used the food pantry in town for three years. I will not be using it this Thanksgiving but would love to give back. I would donate all the bread to them.
Maria is the winner!
