It has been quite some time since I was given a real chain letter (sorry, emails don't count) however, yesterday the wife of a friend of Mike's from work gave him the following to pass along to me:

Apparently you have a couple of days of prep work to do before you can bake the bread. Nothing too detailed, mashing the bag here, adding some more ingredients there...I am imagining it will be delicious. I will keep you posted - and for my friends who live within driving distance, don't be surprised when a bag shows up at your door! ha!
Has anyone tried this before?

never tried it or heard of it... but finding it on wikipedia lessens the chance that's it a practical joke (hopefully!)
We did this once when I was younger. Grandma Judy wouldn't participate but I did!!
It was fun!
Neighbor gave me one. got so tired of doing it, I threw it out...I know I am a horrible person. Just didn't have time for all the steps.
I think our neighbor called ours "Herman" or something like that. "It's time to feed Herman." Ask Mike if he has any memories of this.
I agree with Robin though. You can only do it for so long. Enjoy it while it's new and fun. By Thanksgiving Herman will be down the drain!
I remember it being tasty though. However, I was probably 14 at the time and thought mayonnaise sandwiches were the bomb too.
They weren't mayonnaise sandwiches... they were Mirikal Wip on Wonder. Big difference.
I remember Herman being two things: 1. Kenny Little's rabbit. 2. A superball also owned by the Little family. Kenny had also called it Herman, I think.
You are correct...Miracle Whip on Wonder. Dad almost clobbered me with that shamrock shaped paperweight one night when I was sneaking down to get one of those gummy beauties.
I think it was Mrs. Shepard next door who gave us the friendship cake. Mom, of course, would not participate. In a desperate attempt to maternalize our house, I took up the charge. I may have only made two cakes, who knows. I think it was like a coffee cake.
Kenny's rabbit was named "Herbie". Don't remember the snowball.
Yep, did this before and it worked well. Like Auntie Kris, I did it when I was much younger, but do remember it turning out well. Have fun!
