Fresh 3-Year Old Bread

A small Japanese company that employs disabled workers has figured out how to bake bread that stays fresh for up to 3 years (news story here). The bread -- called Pan Desuyo! (This is Bread! in English) -- is baked in three flavors: chocolate chip, coffee cake and raisin. It's made with absolutely no preservatives and additives. Each loaf is canned immediately after it comes out of the oven, using a secret process that allows the loaves to stay fresh and moist for up to 3 years. Check out the Japanese website here. Check out the link in the lower right side -- yep, you guessed it! -- a special braille button for the visually imparied (?!!).
