It comes in a large format, more wide than tall, and can be used to assemble truly amazing stacks of ham with plenty of surface area to hold sufficient mustard. The only drawback is that, if you like your bread lightly toasted, you have to toast it twice, as it is too large to fit into a standard toaster; you have to toast one end, then flip it over to do the other. Sourdough is an acquired taste, I'll admit, but those who like it will settle for nothing less. If you start now, I'm sure you'll be thoroughly addicted before the stores run out of the last loaves of your beloved Wonder Bread.

      How about some real bread? People talk about "the best thing since sliced bread", as if sliced bread was a good thing. Having been to Europe I can assure you that sliced bread is a giant leap backwords. Now if I could just find real break in the US without having to bake it myself.

        Don't eat it!!! It could become a collectors item.

        And like a fine wine, it will only improve with age... I've got a circa 1979 twinkie in the original wrapper and it STILL looks deeeeLISH! ...Steve

          Probably good for you to know that they actually have a very very very short shelf life. I definitely would not even think about eating it. Matt Newman

            Roger, it seems you've mistaken me for someone who has other than the lowest of standards when it comes to edibles. :) /ravi My new year's resolution: 2048 x 1536 Home | Articles | Freeware | Music ravib@ravib.com

                You can find some pretty good bread in the US, just don't expect to find it in supermarket. Unfortunately, most people don't care about bread enough to want to spend on better loaves, so they continue to sell cheaper crappy mega-bakery products. But I agree, When it comes to bread and coldcuts, Europeans know what's what. BW The Biggest Loser
