Growing up, Merita was one of our primary breads, along with Sunbeam ("It's batter-whipped!"). Gradually it seemed we moved away from white-bread a bit, and Roman Meal became our staple.

Still, I was rather shocked to find that Merita was part of the Hostess collapse (along with Wonder Bread and Butternut, which we never bought). I saw those diamond wrappers at the breakfast table many days in grade-school, with the scent of toast in the air..

  1. I believe there's a Merita bakery in Orangeburg. Also there's a Merita bakery in Orlando beside I-4 that fills your car with that wonderful baked bread smell.

  3. I will always remember going by here and getting fresh cheap bread and sweet treats. It was a favorite past time to do with my dad.
