    Re: Tiger Bread

      Re: Tiger Bread

      I have mailed the seller to see if he know anything
      Seems odd, We know a few US brands in the UK, but not many in the early 70's. Surely an item sold both here and there would still be remembered, but most people don't have a clue when I ask them about it.

          Well both mum and Karen seemed to describe it in the same way as yourself, I believe mum said she could remember the advert "grab a Tiger by the tail" Apparently the tail was the tie/twist top.

            seems the US version was owned by FLOWERS FAMILY BAKERIES, INC.
            but there is no mention of Tiger in their Brand history:cry:

                Have just mailed the makers to see if they recall it, or have a picture of an old packet

                  Yay, hope they get back to you soon, the Logo, the colours, infact everything seems to be pointing in the right direction.

                        Found yet another..again US. the badge has a makers mark of "Evans Baucom Inc", I assume this was the badge maker, as a search brings up nothing.

                          *groan*

                          Surely It had to be sold both here and the US.

                            Thats looking likely, but back in the early 70's only huge multinationals could promote an item like that over here..it had to be made here as it could not be imported, but the big classic US sellers like Chevron petrol, Tootsie rolls, crackerjacks,etc, never made it here, so can't see how a completely forgotten (both here and in the US) loaf of bread could have??

                              It's a mystery all right...lets hope the Ebay seller or makers can shed some light on it for us.

                                I have just emailed Allied Bakeries and British Bakeries who between them make nearly all the trade name breads of today to see if either of their companies produced it and if not, could they shed any light on it.

                                Here's hoping !!
