Bread at Target

Yes fellow foodies I said it - there is bread at Target. The brand name is Archer Farms and the stuff is a delightful change from the "HFCS" laden bread in every market in town. (HFCS = high fructose corn syrup)

Now if you prefer super soft squishy bread then this is not for you. The ingredient list is quite short - not as short as the drool worthy bread from Weiman's and Flour Garden but MUCH shorter than your standard supermarket bread. What sweetner do they use?? Just plain old fashioned sugar!! Can you believe it?? What a novel thought - using sugar instead of HFCS!!

My old favourite bread bakery 'Montana Gold' on Cary street has started adding HFCS to their breads in place of the more expensive honey they originally used so I no longer shop there for bread.

If I could have home delivery of Weiman's or Flour Garden I would only eat their breads but alas they do not deliver!!

Perhaps soon we will have a Whole Foods grocery market in Richmond then we will have access to real bread and not sliced chemicals.

My favourite Archer farms bread is the Whole Wheat but the Buttermilk bread makes a slamming grilled cheddar and mozzarella cheese sandwich............
