Your bread remains shit though, chemicals or no.

It was a toastie loaf as a matter of fact.

*Epiphany*

I've been buying the toastie loaf because I felt less slices would take less time to finish resulting in less waste. Perhaps I should try another type and report my findings.

NB: I consider bread to be past its best when it gives off a slightly tangy smell, not when it goes proper stale.

My standards may be too high.

Well, could always buy the smaller Toastie loaf, couldn't you? Wax paper is really quite bad for bread's freshness, apparently it makes bread smell slightly tangy which sounds fairly unique as I've never smelled this faint tangy whiff on my slices of bread.

Maybe your standards are too high, standing in a field alone with a foil hat on.

Each post you make plunges me deeper into a quandry.

I was given to understand plastic wrappers encourage mould in bread, where waxed paper does not.

I don't buy the small toastie pack because the slice size is proportionate to the length of the loaf and is too small for the contents I want to wrap (or sandwich, if you will).

I regret I cannot give it any more consideration tonight. I have an interview in the morning and want to look as fresh as a loaf did in the 70s.

I will also be packed with chemicals to acheive this.

This isn't over.

Well there's something for you to do - find that out.

I have an oxygen tank to slip into.

Seems it was over. Nini, you're wrong.

There, hopefully all went well for you today.

After allowing the superior bread conversation to pass by and dwelling on my thoughts for all of 5 minutes, I think the only confectionery I would like to see return is vice versas and nestle secret bars. Both of them made by nestle who tend to make some of the worst, most unrefined chocolate ever.
As such, I don't think I really want them to return at all and I'll just look back at them remembering the hot summers of my youth and enjoy the finer chocolate that has finally graced the chocolate market.

Oh and cdd, you were entirely wrong.

Take it you didn't like our bread talk? Blame Gav, he's the one who started it.

It was a triumph, Nini. Thanks for asking.

Never mind the Warburtons, I'm currently enjoying a Greggs Chicken Club bagette. Its really very nice.

I have a confection in the fridge for later. A vanilla slice. They haven't changed much in years.

Quite the opposite, I love Warburton bread - especially toastie/super toastie, but now I'm married so it would seem any chance of eating white bread has gone out of the window! I just enjoy fresh bread from my bread maker now - maybe a little more expensive, but you can't beat fresh bread and by the sounds of things, it isn't outlasted by the soggy brand name bread either now!

Is there something about having a wife that precludes you from eating white bread?
