"The Greatest Thing Since Sliced Bread?"

I suppose this saying arose back when sliced bread was relatively new.

But nowadays, there seems to be a renewed appreciation for freshly baked loaves of bread.

So, how would you update this expression for the 21st century?

"The greatest thing since...."

The greatest thing since walrus tossing - especially at grandmas - was banned!

@RenFur I couldn't find a group about "Sayings", "Expressions", etc.

If all else fails, there's always this one!

@DrWatson I know, eh?!

Why can some people create all these wacky groups with ease? Must have an "in" with management would be my guess...

@RenFur Actually, this group was one of the old ones from EP, where anyone could create any kind of group. Eventually, the admins here (wisely) decided to join together groups on the same theme. (We had "classical music", "I like classical music", "I love classical music", "I listen to classical music", "I enjoy listening to classical music", etc.)

I find it hilarious that they couldn't find anything else to join with this one! 😄

@DrWatson Yes true! sliced bread didn't come with a slew of other unforeseen impacts for sure!
