What are kneaded erasers made of?

You can't make the perfect kneaded eraser that you find in stores, but if in any case your kneadable eraser is all messed up, you can use a substitute one by using just a slice of bread! Here's how; Take a slice of bread. Roll it until it's very tight. Make sure it doesn't break! Unroll it. Roll it again. Create a sharp point out of it, make the point short or the bread's gonna break. Use it! This technique may not work for long, but can be used for a day or two until you'll need a new slice of bread! Be sure to buy a proper kneaded eraser though, they work better and are pretty cheap!
