My Sister-in-law said that in 1960, the food fad was added gluten in baked goods. She sent her husband all over Los Angeles looking for bakeries that added extra gluten to their mix.

Bread flour has high gluten content. And when baking with whole grain wheat, bakers often add gluten to help it rise, and give it better texture.
