Default Giraffe Bread

Im sure I saw it on here but I cant find the thread now, a little girl wrote to Sainsburys asking why Tiger Bread was called such, it should be called Giraffe Bread because it looked more like a Giraffe.

Well Sainsburys are giving it a shot

Best news story of the week.

The chap who wrote the letter from Sainsbury's left to retrain as a primary school teacher. From reading that letter, he will be a natural at it.

He could have been Jo King for what we know.
That £3.00 gift card is taking a pith, fair don'ts. That kid should have been given at least £100.00 worth of free shopping from Sainsbury's for making their bread famous.

It only made the bread famous as the parent of the child published the letter which went viral.

I think it is a lovely story.
