Milwaukee public schools could save a million dollars a year, just by buying bread instead of hiring people to bake it themselves.

JS Online: School-made rolls may cost too much bread

Here's my favorite part:

But even those who accept that homemade bread might be on its way out say that as school districts cut costs and trim services out of necessity, what is lost cannot always be captured by the concrete terms of dollars and cents.

That would be as tricky as putting a price tag on a feeling. Or the smell of homemade bread.

Oh, the humanity.
