Chillicothe's slice of history arrived in 1928 when inventor Otto Rohwedder and Chillicothe baker Frank Bench produced the first loaves of sliced bread. Their invention set in motion the timeless comparison of ingenuity and innovation to "The Greatest Thing Since Sliced Bread." The scene of Locust Street in Chillicothe takes viewers back to a different era, depicting Chillicothe's slice of the good life.
