English Quality Biscuits
On his return in 1919, Garfield began taking on managerial responsibilities and over the next few years his father promoted him to company vice president and then general manager. In 1921, with the ten year agreement barring the company from manufacturing bread expired, and at the urging of former customers of his, George Weston went back to baking bread. It was around this time that Garfield convinced his father to import biscuit ovens and machinery from England. The result was the successful launch of "Weston’s English Quality Biscuits" in 1922.

“Civilisation—a heap of rubble scavenged by scrawny English Lit. vultures.”

“The quality of American life is an insult to the possibilities of human growth ... the pollution of American space, with gadgetry and cars and TV and box architecture, brutalizes the senses, making gray neurotics of most of us, and perverse spiritual athletes and strident self-transcenders of the best of us.”
—Susan Sontag (b. 1933)
