Evidently, Wonder Bread has an underground following amongst PVC'ers.

I learned this trick in the early '80s.  I have used it successfully more

than once, because you can't glue PVC if there is water trickling.  If
you 
have spray nozzles, it clogs them, but with a rotor, it blows out in
pieces 
too small to see.  I guess it becomes worm food.  Strange that you would 
hear it on the cooks list...
