on a loaf of bread the twist ties are different colors. does any one know why?

Answer 1

Each day’s delivery has a different colored twist tie associated with it, these are the most common color tie designations: Monday – Blue; Tuesday – Green; Thursday – Red; Friday – White; and Saturday – Yellow. (Notice that the colors were assigned in alphabetical order.) So, if today was Thursday, you would want to purchase a loaf with a red twist tie - not a white one which was a Friday delivery (almost a week old)! This coding system has been used in the U.S. for over ten years, though some bread companies have created their own color “schemes” for their daily deliveries.

Answer 2

Each day has a different color. If the bread is baked on a Monday, it will be a particular color, etc. This way you can tell how fresh the bread is, if you know which color is which day.

Answer 3

I think the colors are a standard for mostl bakeries. The color is different for each day they bake. I saw the list of colors & the days they stand for but I don't remember what they are. They do that to insure that the freshest product is always out. Many bakeries take back the previous days product to resell in their own day old shops.
