MY FATHER AND HIS BROTHERS USED TO HAVE AN AUTOMOBILE DEALERSHIP
IN LANSING, MICHIGAN IN THE LATE 1950S. MY DAD WOULD GO TO LANSING
EVERY 2 OR 3 WEEKS TO SUPERVISE THE PERSONNEL THERE, AND HE WOULD
STOP IN BRIGHTON ON THE WAY HOME TO BUY BREAD. THE BREAD
WAS CALLED LANSING BREAD, THE BAKERY IS STILL THERE. THIS BREAD WAS
EXCELLENT IN QUALITY AND WAS A REAL TREAT FOR THE FAMILY, WE
USED TO GET REAL EXCITED WHEN DAD BROUGHT HOME THIS LANSING BREAD.

Submitter comment: LANSING BREAD BECAME A REAL TRADITION IN THE TAYLOR FAMILY.
ALL OF THE SIX CHILDREN REMEMBER IT WITH WARM MEMORIES.
