Excerpt from Halamar "There are chemical formations resulting from untoasted bread that are fatal to a weak stomach like mine, " explained Madam Worthington to Dr. Maurice, "and there is a great difference in the way bread is toasted. That is one reason why I am kept so closely at home. My stomach denies me many pleasures and all freedom." The lady made this statement expecting sympathy. She had made the statement so often that it had become second nature to listen for murmurs of concern to follow it.
