Yes. I am buying a sandwich, and there are two pieces of bead in the
sandwich. The bread is wonderful. I do not buy loaves of it because it
would be a waste, especially at $5-6 per loaf.


We have another good bakery in town where I get whole wheat and while
grain breads. I have been encouraging my brother to buy his bread there
but he says it is too expensive. It is about twice as much as he pays
for bread from the local supermarket bakery. The real bakery bread
loaves are bigger and weigh about twice as much, and they are so much
better.

We found some excellent whole wheat bread that sells for about $3.50 at
Costco. It's over $5.00 elsewhere. The loaves are smaller than a cheap
bread loaf but it is fine for us when there are just two of us in the house.
We don't always finish the loaf so I freeze the extra and make stuffing with
it about once a month. But now that my husband is home we go through two
loaves in a week, easily. He is a big sandwich eater. Daughter and I are
not.

Homemade stuffing sounds delicious.

I have only had the commercial stuff once. Yech. What a poor substitute
for home made that stuff is.

White or whole wheat can be artisan, in fact most are white bread.
Any machine formed bread can contain those ingredients. The thing
that makes bread artisan is that it's hand formed, typically free form
but can also be baked in some sort of pan... the typical pizza is
artisan bread.
