[quote=Anonymous]I disagree with your premise. The bread at the farmers market is great and there are several good bakeries I can think of in the bethesda/rockville area. I find bad bakeries in a lot of countries. Like people rave about the bakeries in Mexico and the pan Dulce but I’ve never had any good ones, despite trying probably a dozen different places. Of course, Italy France and Spain have great bakeries, but you can’t signal out America as having the only bad ones. But I think one issue is the way Americans shop. Unless you are picking up fresh bread to eat same day, it just doesn’t work. So the Friday challah usually works because bakeries know a large number will purchase fresh bread on that day. Otherwise they end up with a lot of waste because most Americans don’t stop on their way home from work to pick up fresh bread. [/quote]
