Britain’s bitter bread battle: what a £5 sourdough loaf tells us about health, wealth and class

Some complain that pricey sourdough is elitist and pretentious. Others lambast cheap sliced white as unhealthy and unsustainable. How did our most basic foodstuff become a source of conflict and division?
