    Dear Friend: It has been almost three weeks since you were kind enough to listen to the story of our famous Wonder Bread. You recall that you promised to serve Wonder Bread for a week to discover how much better it is. We sincerely hope that your family were pleased with the change and that Wonder Bread now enjoys a regular place at your table. Cordially, The Wonder Bread Instructor
