Well, this doesn’t look good…

A man took to TikTok and demonstrated to viewers how our bread might not be made like it used to be…

In fact, what he was able to do was pretty creepy.

The man showed viewers a piece of Sara Lee bread and let it soak up water from the tap in his sink.

He then squeezed out the bread and proved that it acts just like a sponge.

The TikTokker asked viewers, “What is going on?”

The man asked, “What are they putting in this bread?”

He then tried another piece of bread from the same loaf and got the same results.

Hmmmmm, that’s weird…
