It is true. I worked at a grocery store called HEB in Texas, the bread ties had different colors. There was a cheat sheet for us to use that was taped to the back wall where the bread was stocked on the shelves.

It also helps the employees rotate the bread properly, so any 1 day old bread would rotated to the front. Trucks came in daily with fresh bread.

Both true and false. It's true that the tabs are color coded, the bread/muffins/cookies etc that are baked on a Monday get a specific colored twist tie or plastic tab, the stuff baked on Tuesday gets a different color and so on. However the colors are not universal, each bakery or distributor uses their own system and any major store will be getting baked goods from different sources. So you might walk into a grocery store and see English muffins with white, orange and yellow tabs where the white is the freshest and orange is the oldest while the same store will have Wonder bread with white orange and yellow twists where the orange is freshest and the white is oldest. It used to be helpful, now it's an outdated system that remains in use mostly to help the route drivers rotate their product more easily. It's not much value to the consumer as there are sell-by dates on pretty much every product. Just read the packages and you can see which bag is newest from which sell-by date is farthest away. You don't need to know the colors.

From what I've heard it's true in regards to determining what DATE the bread originally arrived, but I sure will never memorize the dates in conjunction with colors. Simply not worth the effort especially when the expiration date is listed on the bag.

Which is why anyone with half a brain always picks the loaf that is towards the back... same with milk.

5 billion? Is there a joke in there somewhere?

We learned this way back when Poltergeist came out.

Are you thinking of the old adage about counting the seconds from the time you see the lightning to the time you hear the thunder?

Because this XKCD is having you measure the time between you see the lightning (visible photons) vs the time it takes the radio pulse (microwave or long wave photons) to reach your radio. Which is the joke

So looking through movies on my STARZ app I found out Jason Statham is not a fan of Jim Carrey
