Mildly Interesting

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Dunno where you're at but Trader Joe's sells these half-baked breads. You bring it home, pop it in the oven for maybe 15m, and you have a nice loaf of bread, freshly baked. It scratches the itch.

That sounds amazing! But the closest trader joes to me is 65 miles away, next is 110 miles away. No shade, its I'm in bum fuck eqypt, its a small city but way far removed. If it wasn't for the highway and the university there would be nothing here.

So I have a feeling on of these machines may pay back pretty good in the right location. I mean come on, who doesn't love fresh bread.

/except people that have celiac, thats a rough thing as gluten is everywhere.

Regular grocery stores sell par-baked breads, and have for a long time.

One brand, LeBrea, is particularly common, and good.

LeBrea, I'll see if my local has it, thank you for the help!

If you only have Dollar General, you're screwed on food anyway, but if you have a Walmart… imho walmart bakery is quite fine enough for a lot of things. It may not have the cachet of other brands, but it's tasty.
