I bought the Raisin Brown Bread today on a whim at the grocery store (Publix in Florida) and I really liked it. Of special interest to me was the fact that no refined white sugar is used to sweeten it (only molasses) and no white flour is used (only whole wheat and rye flours). This bread is therefore quite closer to a South Beach Diet-acceptable "dessert" versus something you'd get in a typical bakery (with the possible exception of the molasses...didn't read that far).

The raisins were sweet and delicious and the bread is rich and hearty. I paid $1.99 locally and found it to be a very good value. It was flavorful and delicious enough by itself that butter actually was a negative when I tried it! That doesn't happen often.

I would recommend you try this product at least once to see what you think. I think it would be great to keep on hand as a snack, as one can could easily last you a few days of snacking.

B&M Brown bread totally took us back to our childhood. Slice it into rounds about 3/8 inch thick. The trick is steaming it so that it is hot and moist and serve with butter, which melts into the bread. Looks like chocolate, but it is dark with molasses. They still make the same stuff of our memories. Patience! First can didn't get hot enough or moist enough, but the second and third were perfect.

This is just like I remember as a youngster living in New England. If you like hot dogs and beans, this will be a good addition.

I was looking for a canned bread with flavor for long-term storage. This product fills that need. I wish it was a little less pricey. The flavor is good. The biggest challange was getting it out of the can! I had to cut open both ends of the can and it still was a battle!
