A good question!. I'd suggest unsliced bread, as, no doubt, others will.
I say this seriously, because most of the sliced bread in the UK, brown or white, is absolute rubbish. I'm a chef, but baking bread is not like making Bechamel sauce - all you need is flour, water, yeast and a reasonable oven. Anyone can make bread.
The problem is, that commercial breadmaking was ruined by a method known as the Chorleywood Process, in which the proving process of yeast was accelerated. The Chorleywood Process, however, has been modified by some responsible large -scale bakers, most notably Warburtons, who seem to have reached a compromise between short-life, natural bread, and breads that can be opened and kept for more that 2 days and retain a degree of freshness.
The worst manifestion is the Milton Keynes Process. Dough is commercially produced en masse, distributed nationally, and baked in store. A lot of what goes in your breadmaking machine could well emanate from this process. The Dough lasts for 6 days, so it must be full of preservatives and associated crap.
Not quite the answer that you wanted, I am sure, but bread is the staff of life and much of it in the UK is total muck.

electricity, the wheel, space travel, unsure when sliced bread was invented, could be before space travel.
