[quote=Anonymous]We have a few excellent bakeries and bakers in my part of Dc, and they are pricey. It’s worth it to me to buy from them instead of other crap but again, they’re pricey, and you need to go early in the day to get a loaf. My favorite baker delivers and her sandwich loaves are $8/loaf. But also, they go bad fairly quickly because she doesn’t use a bunch of preservatives. Bread is hard to make, it’s labor intensive, and it has to be consumed nearly immediately or it goes bad. Americans likely don’t prioritize it like other cultures do. So good bakeries have a hard time surviving. I hate hate hate the typical grocery store loaves and so it’s worth it to me to buy more expensive bread and go through some effort to do it. But it’s not worth it to a lot of Americans, like who who will actually eat wonder bread willingly! [/quote]
