You've all probably eaten or at least seen a loaf of wonder bread. The thin slices of white bread are so polluted with preservatives and white sugar that you may as well have been eating pop tarts on either side of your turkey and cheese. What is so remarkable about this spongy stuff that it is called "wonder"?
The answer lies in the packaging. Large dots in primary colors overlap slightly to decorate the white plastic un-biodegradable bag. Not too remarkable, eh? Hold that design next to the one for Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta: now do you see some similarities?
The story goes something like this: A man invented a new kind of bread. He didn't have a name for it yet. One day, he saw a cluster of hot air balloons in the sky, and he was filled with wonder at the beauty and strangeness of the experience. He knew at once that he had found a name for his bread.
It may sound bizarre, but it is true. In my opinion, though, it's more of a wonder that people continue to buy and eat such a horrible excuse for bread...
