OT - NO POLITICS Hazy Days of Winter.

Bagels and English muffins i always slice them anyway. “Fork split” my ass. I’ve been burned by horribly separated bread TOO MANY TIMES and I won’t have it. So now i opt to slice them myself.

Agreed

The bread isle is absolute trash these days at Hannaford anyways. Vermont bread had great stuff but they went bankrupt and wonder bread bought their assets and never brought them back. Stop and Shop has a good Natures Promise break/muffins but they apparently dont share with Hannaford even if they are owned by the same company. So I buy Daves bread and just pay up the ass.

For Bagels I like Rays in the freezer isle.

Dave’s is great but I usually don’t care to spend that much. When I’m feeling fancy or I’m not already emptying the checking account, I’ll grab it.

I grew up crushing Lenders bagels lol and i just kinda stuck with them forever. They were a buck a bag for the longest time! I typically don’t freeze them though. I’ll have to look for Rays.

Happy National Carrot Cake Day! Luckily we grow lots of delicious carrots in Canada and they are available all year round. They are also easy to grow and store. One of my favourite cakes (I have many), I just might have to bake one now.

I haven't had carrot cake in years because of the walnuts most bakeries and people put in the cake. Stupid allergies.

I usually get 2 packs of Daves at BJs.

I don't know when this took place but it happened off Cape Cod

On the flip side, is there anything more frustrating than an English muffin that won't split evenly no matter how carefully you try?

Or bagel!!

Is this ever the truth!!!

As for bread I have fallen madly in love with sourdough, can't get enough of it. Before I was using plain rye or pumpernickel.
