And nobody makes it better than LaVonne Green of Interior (near the
Badlands National Park's southern edge)."

"Food
Chain"
"And
now comes the commercial synthesis, America's inevitable culture-in-a-box.
My Czech wife came home yesterday to our Danish town from a grocery
store with an Irish name in a historically German town with an English
name, having purchased a package of Indian fry bread mix, manufactured
by the Woodenknife Company of Interior, South Dakota. Now we
have fry bread from the box, premixed French bread from our bread
machine, and Mom's latter-day rye bread in the freezer - and complaints
from our twelve-year-old daughter Antonia that she's underprivileged
because we never have any "store bread".
