What value can one loaf of bread bring to the Crivello family and their friends?

My origins are humble but I’m from

noble and ancient descent. My ancestors sat at King’s tables and a Jewish old relative was God’s body.

Everywhere you go, you’ll find some of my relatives in many different breeds and families, shapes and sizes, colors and textures, sweet and sour…

I’m the most ancient and international human heritage.

I’m Brad, the Loaf of Bread

From different countries

We all have one mission: Feed People!

British Bread and Butter Pudding

Restaurants were invented to serve us in many ways

and combinations and we created lots of jobs and business

And People worked hard to get us

Some work in growing us: farmers

Some bring the ingredients together: truck drivers, boats

Some work in preparing us: bakers, cooks

Some work in making us available: supermarkets

And People worked hard to get us

Welcome to Brad’s routine.

A normal day in a loaf of bread’s life and the great value he adds to the Crivello family and friends.

Brad found himself pulled out of the freezer and

placed on the kitchen counter. Brad had come home from the supermarket to his new family several days ago.

6am

Able to be saved to be eaten for several days

The mother of the house uses 4 slices to make a

sandwich for school lunches for Daniella and Roberto

6.15am

Providing nutrition to growing minds – one of them could be a future

artist, scientist, politician or creative thinker!

2 slices are packed and taken to the local playground

where there is a pond. The mother and baby Maria use the bread to feed the ducks.

10.30

Fun and bonding with animals.

Daniella’s art class visits a local art gallery where

there is a toast mural. Back at school they make their own mural using spare bread that Daniella has. Years later Daniella, now a famous artist, credits this visit to igniting her love of art when she becomes a famous artist.

11am

Creating Art and success and passion

Daniella’s mother makes a bread and butter pudding

using 6 slices of Brad for a friend who’s going through some hard times. She drops it off and gives her friend a much needed hug.

1pm

Sweet comfort, support, and companionship.

The word companion – compañero –compagnon comes from the Latin “cum panis” with bread - sharing bread.

Daniella and Roberto make a necklace from bread for

their mother, to give her on mothers day, using 2 slices of bread made into bread crumbs and mixed with glycerine and glue.

4pm

A way to show love and appreciation for your

mother – creating a special memory

.

Daniella and Roberto’s bed time story is Hansel and

Gretel. They get up early the next day before school, and play for hours using 2 crumbled slices of bread as bread crumbs to find their way back from the wicked witches house.

7pm

Providing entertainment, a way home and bonding for

a brother and a sister.

The mother uses the final 3 slices of the now stale

load to make bread crumbs to cover the top of the lasagne she has made for a celebration dinner with her extended family.

3 days later

Even after 3 days Brad continues to add value to the family by nourishing them and adding the finishing touches to a dish that is all about celebrating family and friends.

Remember the game where you got a BIC pen, took

out the ink tube and used the pen as a blow gun. You then filled it up with bread crumb balls and the fun begun ? Lisa from New Zealand had never heard of this but Elena grew up in France and Patricio in Chile and both thought this game was awesome when they were kids – and of course it got you into lots of trouble FOR PLAYING WITH YOUR FOOD!
