First of all, I was starving when this arrived and I took a bite of a heel slice and thought that was pretty darn good for a heel, but then I toasted a slice and got mad because this is the best bread I've ever had, even better than my own. I bought flour with the bread because I wanted to try baking my own bread with Beck's flour, but maybe I'll just keep ordering loaves! You will not be disappointed, I promise!
