This makes more sense than rambling explanations I've heard involving the name of Napoleon's horse (no, Pavlos, Trigger was MOHAMMED'S horse). And it's gratifying to see that Motor City Ted was expressing his opinions even back then!
Only problem I see is, if pumpernickel was as primitive, tasteless, and hard to digest as he says, why didn't the Scots invent it first?
