DID YOU KNOW...
Brazilian sociologist and anthropologist Gilberto
Freyre informs us that before the 19th century Brazil had never seen
bread. Before the italian immigrants introduced bread,
Brazilians used tapioca and yuca in different ways. The typical bakerys
spread throughout the big cities rapidly and today, especially in some
neightborhoods of São Paulo, you can still find very typical home made
italian bread.
