Yes! I loved the cafeteria rolls! Big fluffy goodness.
Yes the rolls stood out as the best. I remember they would still be warm and we would get little pats of butter to put in them.
Now that I think about it, I very seldom have gotten such good rolls in a restaurant.
My Mother was a great cook and made several different kinds of good bread but she never mastered making those great rolls.
They now have to make those wonderful rolls with wheat flour. Even the corn bread now has wheat flour. Instead of yellow, it is now the color of dirt.
When I started teaching in the early 70s, the school cooks cooked. Now because of the regulations (they have to document calories, fat grams, etc etc) the cooks thaw and reheat pre-prepared food. The people who sell this “food” are likely getting rich, regardless of how much of their product is thrown away.
