We had one here too.

 I used to take bread right out of the freezer to make my peanut-butter-and-jelly
 sandwiches, it was easier to spread peanut butter on the frozen bread.  :)
I really liked frozen bread as a kid

Mom wouldnt let me eat, unless I would say something at the table, so I usually didnt eat with the family.

Didnt bother me, I would raid the freezer and swipe a couple of slices of frozen bread.

Ah yes, good times

 Now you can have all the bread you want, fresh or frozen.  :hug:

LOL, yep, I can....and hardly ever eat any now. Maybe I should start freezing it.

 No, we sometime have cold PBJ's in lunch bags for the residents.  Using frozen bread
 keeps me from tearing the bread while spreading the peanut butter, it's a great easy trick!  :thumbup:

CBC, that is cruel.  What does peanut butter do to their dentures?

As for how long those things last, never eaten one, not being a yank, but from everything I've heard, they have a half life not a shelf life.

   :lol1:   There are other sandwich options for those who don't eat peanut butter.

 That's kind of what I was thinking, with all the artificial ingredients.  :nerd!:

Peanut butter and honey on frozen french toast isn't bad.

 Peanut butter and seedless raspberry jam on semi-frozen white bread ...  :autism:

Seedless? nooooo! jam has to have the seeds in it, or its no longer jam, but jelly.

I make a pretty good blackberry jam when its blackberry season, and there is a great sodding glut of blackberries to be had. That is, when I am not busily turning them into pies, adding them to porridge, eating them right off the bushes etc.

I don't eat much junk food, but I do like twinkies. They have even started dipping them in chocolate.





I wouldn't worry about the products drying up. Some other company will buy them out and continue making them.
