Life’s Little Victory of the Day: Sainsbury’s announced today that it was bowing to social network pressure, and renaming its tiger bread “giraffe bread” per Lily Robinson’s suggestion.
The three-year-old wrote the supermarket chain last year to ask why tiger bread is called tiger bread, suggesting it be renamed “giraffe bread” to better match its appearance.
Customer service manager Chris King wrote Lily back to explain that the bread was named by a baker long ago who “thought it looked stripey like a tiger.” However, King sided with Lily, calling her renaming idea “brilliant.”
After thousands of social network users hopped aboard the Giraffe Bread Express, the company caved and decided to move forward with the name change.
“In response to overwhelming customer feedback that our tiger bread has more resemblance to a giraffe, from today we will be changing our tiger bread to giraffe bread and seeing how that goes,” said Sainsbury’s in a statement.
Congrats everybody. We did it.

On Vacation Meals.
Mom made me breakfast this morning!  She just put together what’s left in the fridge since we’ve cleared it out ;)
She made a huge plate for me but she doesn’t realize that my stomach can’t take in all that food anymore. I need smaller portions. I couldn’t finish it all.
But…Breakfast was yummy.
Potatoes, mushrooms, onions, wieners (yes I know! but it was delicious), scrambled eggs, flat pizza bread with pesto and tomato and lastly watermelon and grapes.
This was my last Breakfast with mom before heading back to NYC but we are going to make a very yummy healthy dinner tonight! :)
