In a Pinch

Craving.

BIG Craving.

MUST have a sandwich.

Don’t have bread.

Quick stop at Community Natural Foods.

Picked up Maggie’s Gluten Free Kitchen Multi Seed Bread.

The verdict: Will do in a pinch.

It’s no secret that I’m addicted to GF Patisserie’s sandwich bread. That being said, I knew that when I picked this loaf up I would have to keep a very open mind.  And not to toot my own horn, but ~ TOOT TOOT~ I kept an open mind.

I was impressed with the fluffy nature of the bread. GF bread in general tends to be heavy and ridged, add to that the fact that this is multi seed bread and I would have assumed that it would be like a rock. Pleasantly, it wasn’t.

What I wasn’t too keen on was that it falls apart fairly fast. I lost two pieces just pulling them from the bag. that was heartbreaking, that means one less sandwich I can have. I would also warn you that the bread is a little dry, it’s one of those loaves that sucks up the condiments like a sponge.

Here’s the straight up truth. GF Patisserie makes the best sandwich bread of all time. BUT, if you need a sandwich pronto, and you can’t get out to Cochrane, Maggie’s Gluten Free Kitchen is a good alternative.  Not the best GF bread I’ve had, but definitely not the worst.

(I’ve attempted to find their website but have not found it. The website on the bread label does not exist, and a google search brought nothing up. So all I can tell you is that you can find this bread at Community Natural Foods – not sure where else)
