I've actually heard people say the one reason they go to Subway is because
the bread is so good. See George's earlier post about crispy. Some people
have no clue.

One morning my wife was making breakfast and I suggested that I'd go get
some fresh bread. The Price Chopper has a decent Tuscan Loaf. I'm planning
to rush home with it while still warm and fresh. So, I ask the clerk for a
loaf and as she put it in the bag she asks, "It's warm, do you still want
it?"

Some people couldn’t even buy a clue, Ed.

Apparently this clerk was one of them.

Depends on what you want. I like Subway bread for a sub. I would not
eat it otherwise.

I needed a new bread knife a couple of years ago and decided to hit a
few yard sales before spending 'real' money. When I asked for a bread
knife most of the yardsalers (word?) looked completely blank.

Still there are 3 good bakeries within a Km of me so all is not lost.
