Chillicothe, MO - Alien Dream Pads Are Best Things Since Unsliced Bread
Manage episode 383220125 series 3003280
Welcome to Chillicothe, Missouri, "The Home of Sliced Bread!" Chillicothe began as a farming community in the early 19th century when European Americans began settling in the region. The town's name is Shawnee for "big town." While Chillicothe has never lived up to it's moniker, it is the home of sliced bread. Otto Rohwedder developed the first bread slicing machine, the Rohwedder Bread Slicer, in 1928, and sold the first one to the Chillicothe Baking Company. They began selling sliced bread to stores in the area and it was an instant hit. By the mid-1930s sliced bread sales exceed that of unsliced bread nationally. We hope you enjoy our visit to Chillicothe!
