It is something we have compared everything to our whole "[insert anything here] is better than sliced bread" so do you think it is over rated or under rated?

Overrated. I scoff at your bread, as I have a tortilla!

mmm...
Sandvichs.....<drools over shirt>

Sorry, what was the question?

mmmm bread. its neither. since the other saying is "*insert anything here* is the SECOND best thing since sliced bread"

Mmmmmmmm Bread. And besides, have you ever had to slice your own bread? It's no fun, and thats a whole extra 20 seconds you could be using eating the stuff.

Considering just how many trivial things are considered the best thing since sliced bread, I would say it's severely underrated.
In fact, Wikipedia has an entire page called sliced bread just so they can link to it when something is called "the best thing since sliced bread", yet none of the information on the page even has anything to do with the slicing of bread.

It comes unsliced?.. why would you want unsliced bread... you'd have to cut it all your self and well that would just be a pain and make a real mess when ever you wanted a sandwidge.

While the "invention" (if you could call it that) of pre-sliced bread is indeed good, the question at hand is if the slicing of the bread is entirely necessary. Of coarse for things like the sandvich, the slicing is good, but why not just eat the bread. Bread is plenty good by itself if you ask me.

the only way unsliced bread is better is if it is homemade

Sliced bread is delicious. It isn't over appreciated.

Don't let my friend see your comment.

He murders those who make TF2 references.

Anyway, sliced bread is sliced bread. How the hell can food be overrated?

I invented sliced bread, and shoes, and dice.

I prefer the big really crusty loaves you can buy in supermarkets that you can cut to your own preferred thickness

It's perfectly rated. Sliced bread is good and I don't know what I'd do without it, but there are plenty of things I would rather eat. I'm stuck in a tough situation here.

My Mum went through a stage of only buying sliced bread and I hated it. It would be used up so quickly because we'd cut ourselves such large slices. Not on purpose but because it's so god damn hard to cut normal slices.

Because of that experience I have come to appreciate sliced bread.

Mmmmmmmmm bread.
