It seems, no matter where I go, what the sign on the store says, if I want to make a “xxxx on rye” sandwich, I have my choice of Oroweat or, maybe, Oroweat.
Has anyone seen anything BESIDES Oroweat Rye?
(no, not “cocktail rye”)
Then we can get into Fruitcake. Yes, I like it.
I was going to say yes, I see Arnold rye bread all the time, but then I noticed that Arnold and Oroweat have the same logo! and apparently identical websites
It’s hard to find, but we also get Pepperidge Farm rye breads.
What’s Orowheat? (googling) Not available in my area, but the packaging and flavors (except for rye) looks just like what ALDI sells. Maybe they bake for ALDI or maybe ALDI is doing their usual dance on the border of trademark infringement.
I want some dill rye.
All the sandwich rye breads in my area are either from local bakeries, or a variety of Limpuu. I don’t think I’ve ever seen Orowheat.
Dill rye is sooooo good. Toasted with butter.
Mmm, yes, now I want some.
Pepperidge Farm and Arnold are the only major brands of rye bread I see around here. There’s usually a choice of ryes from smaller bakeries.
You guys don’t have Beafsteak of Rosen’s?
No, they are totally bereft. Serves them right for living outside civilization.
Now, the seasonal ryes from ALDI I asked about once before. Imported from Germany. Only enough rye flour to hold the whole (and I mean whole) grains together. Takes hours to chew. Likely to kill someone who hasn’t trained with a high-fiber diet. And $1.79 for half a key. Toasted with chunky peanut butter–too dense for melted butter. Good stuff, and it’s back in town.
Tangent question- are there any rye breads without caraway? If so, are they all perfumey tasting like the caraway type?
Sure: pumpernickel. Caraway is mostly added here in the US (not so much elsewhere), but rye bread really just means that it’s made from rye wheat, or has rye wheat added. In Canada, the type with caraway seed is called kimmel.
You can find seedless rye, which is what I choose if I don’t take my favorite, pumpernickel .
I have never heard of Orowheat. I can get Pepperidge Farm, Beefsteak, and some store brands. Is Orowheat sold in stores, or is it something in a deli?
Many bakeries are regional. I’m sure we have Arnold but the loaf I just bought at the grocery store is Schwebel’s Jewish Rye. That’s usually what I get.
We’ve also got Beefsteak.
In stores. Their website says “Pacific Northwest, Colorado, Arizona, Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, and Mexico.” I used to like their Jewish Rye, but they seem to have changed the formula or something.
