I bought the new chrome bread box. I thought it had a window in it but it
did not. It does have a vent in the back though, which perhaps is
important.

The bread company never got back to me about my complaint but oddly enough
they had only one lone package of the bread at Winco today. Normally there
are dozens of packages. I had noticed before that the bread felt very cold
and it did feel cold again today. They have a rack for it set up on some
meat freezer cases. I wonder if that could have anything to do with the
cause of the mold? Perhaps the bread itself feels cold but perhaps the way
the freezer is venting is affecting it? Or perhaps the way it is stored in
the stockroom?

I checked the front and back pieces of bread well. Didn't look moldy. But
I was also afraid to buy it. There was no white bread there at all. Only
the lone package of the wheat. So what happened to all the other bread?
And there always is a ton! I doubt that someone bought it all. I opted to
buy the whole wheat pita instead.

None of my other bread has gone moldy. Neither did the bran muffins.

Not sure what your question is. Natural bread without preservatives goes
moldy very quickly so long as it is warm and moist. The warmer and moister
the faster it goes moldy. Mould spoors are everywhere. You can keep bread
longer by keeping it in the fridge in a tightly sealed bag.

There was no question this time. Apparently you missed my Greek flatbread
saga. To try to keep it brief... I had been buying white Greek flatbread
for many months. No problem. Then daughter went on the South Beach diet.
So she has to eat whole grains. I switched to buying the whole wheat Greek
flatbread. Same brand, same store.

But the whole wheat stuff was going moldy before it expired. I checked the
ingredients and it does have preservatives in it so this shouldn't happen.
I finally wrote to the company after I threw out at least a couple of pieces
and three entirely new, full packages that went moldy many days before the
expiration date.

I wasn't sure what the problem was. I didn't really think it was something
in my home as many here claimed it was. None of my other bread went moldy.
But... I did have a wooden bread box with no ventilation in it. I have
gotten rid of that and gotten a new bread box with ventilation.

When I wrote to the company I said I didn't know if it was something they
were doing or something the store was doing. I just found it odd that the
store seems to have changed what they are doing. In the past there were
always dozens of packages of bread there. Today there was one. One whole
wheat. No white at all. So did they check and find that all of the bread
was bad? Or...? I don't know. Just interesting.

The bread company never did write back to me. I do like their bread. I
just don't want to keep wasting my money on it if it is going to keep going
bad so quickly. And it's very disappointing to have your mind set on eating
bread and hummus for dinner only to find that you have no bread!

Hmmm ... just a guess but cheaper wheat may possibly have more mould in it.
They do grade the stuff and I assume mould would be a negative on the
quality scale though it is safe to eat. What with the price of flour
skyrocketing I'd not be surprised they switched to cheaper flour.

I don't want to bake unless I have to. My daughter is on a strict diet and
the smell of baking bread would be a temptation for her.

Bake the bread you said she can eat. My sister got a bread machine and she
uses it all the time. She's not into gadgets but she really loves her bread
machine. There's practically no clean up with one. I've tried some that
others have made in a machine and it was quite tasty.

Who knows? I think she's talking about something she mentioned in

Moldy bread happened to me once when I was first married. I bought a
still warm loaf of bread off the shelf at a bakery. It was sliced,
put into a plastic bag and sealed with a twist tie. I was not told to
open the bag when I got home to let it cool down properly, so the next
day I had a loaf of horrible moldy bread.

That changes the texture and I won't eat it from there.

No. The update is that instead of the dozens of packages they normally have
in that store, they had only one. So clearly something happened. But what?
I don't know.

Somebody bought them all? It's happened. Caterers buy stuff in bulk all
the time from retailers like Costco. I'd not worry. Mould and bread
synonymous. In fact that is where they discovered penicillin.

Could be but not likely. Since Costco is practically next door you would
think they would just buy it there. I'm sure it would be cheaper.

I just don't see how the same bread bread from 2 bakers could be so
different that you could eat one and not be able to choke the other down if
your life depended on it. There just is not that much variation between
breads. It's all the same: flour, water, yeast, some salt. I agree with
another poster, just make your own. If your daughter can only eat whole
grain bread, make it for her. How can she be tempted by the aroma if it's
something she can eat anyway:? Homemade bread is the bomb, And fun to
make, too. Get a bread machine or better yet a nice KitchenAid Pro 6. You
can make two pounds of dough with that sucker and cleanup could not be
easier. And back in my bread eating days I always kept it in the fridge. I
never noticed any change in texture at all. Just warm it up in the toaster
oven and it will be like it is oven fresh.

I can not eat the other kind because of the ingredients. I can't have
dairy. I will not bake because that would just torture her. If she smells
fresh bread she wants it and she can only have one piece.

You're right and sqwishy is wrong. I've seen people stocking up for
either catering or their own mom&pop shops. Not to mention the
occasional shopper in cook's whites loading up a cart with a ton of
produce and fresh meat.

Me too. But what squishy was talking about was how penicillin was
discovered. He conflates it with a myth about how Fleming saved Winston
Churchill in his youth from drowning in a bog and decades later saved him
again with his discovery - penicillin

Squishy, the generally accepted theory of where the mould spores came from
was Flemming's assistant's lunch. Yes, it was. People ate slightly mouldy
bread in those days, it was not something they were so afraid of. There is
no such thing as "bread mould" it is all from either aspergillus of
penicillium species. I learned all about it in my mycology classes in
college. So sorry dude. Flemming is credited with the discovery and that
is how he discovered it. Yes, it was 12 years later before it was processed
into a drug. But Flemming is the one who discovered it.

You could not tell a sporidium from your asshole with a dichotomous key.

I'm sure you would. But you just proved that there are a lot of theories
about where the spores came from. The fact is is assistant was eating a
sandwhich while handling the petri dishes which ****ed of Flemmiung because
it spoiled the samples and he had to start all over again. So the mould
probably was on the assistant's fingers.

I think the purpose is that she didn't get enough attention from the
first thread about moldy bread.
