Our bread now...The wonders of preservatives indeed. Our bread now is just different. It's not even like the stuff we grew up with. It's 'shelf <BR/>stabilized' so it can stay on the shelves longer and sell longer. The 'sweet breads' are actually the worse offenders here. There was <BR/>a Univ test of twinkies awhile back. They kept a twinkie for years, it just never went bad. This said, it's helpful to add moisture to the bread & possibly some heat to 'help' the process along some. But you'd be amazed at how effective some of those <BR/>preservatives are in 'saving' the previously high spoilage rate for many foodstuffs. Hotdogs are another food type that are infamous for having a very long shelf life due to all sorts of chemical marvels. Years later they are seemingly edible and show no spoilage, even if kept at room temperature. Cheers & Good Luck!

It takes ages for it to go bad, which means it's not really bread according to him. More like a bread by-product. Groan. This is starting to sound like a frequent conversation at our house.<BR/><BR/>Kudos to LO for having a positive attitude!RaggedyMomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01022064984702182705noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29489292.post-76668066413213039072007-05-01T17:05:00.000-04:002007-05-01T17:05:00.000-04:00Too many preservatives?tToo many preservatives?tmother in israelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13715046177293916034noreply@blogger.com
