▼そもそも、美少女たちがパンをくわえて走り始めたのはいつ頃から？
「遅刻しそうな女の子が食パンを咥え、走って登校している途中で曲がり角で男の子とぶつかり…… 」というパターンが「少女マンガの定番」とされることが往々にしてあるが、1970～1985の『りぼん』作品を全て読破した経験から言えば、そんなマンガは存在しない。定番ではない。

▼ But when did this trend of showing girls running with bread begin?
It's often said that the trope of a girl who runs late to school while holding a slice of bread in her mouth and then bumps into a boy at a street corner comes straight from shoujo manga. However, even after reading all of the works published in the shoujo "Ribon" magazine from years 1970-1985 I have never seen such a scene. So maybe it isn't really a standard shoujo thing?
