Energe Brown Rice Bread

[lilliexx]

I noticed that the energee breads are now kept in the refridgerator section and and have a lable that says " new and improved" I tasted it before, and it was awful ( didnt even taste like bread) So has anyone tried the improved version??

Lillie: Ener-G has a wide variety of different breads. Unfortunately local stores only carry a few versions. I'm lucky enough to live within driving distance (about 20 minutes) from their bakery/factory, so I have discovered some of their breads that I LOVE. If you're looking for 'Wonder Bread' consistency, they even have a few really light breads like that. If you're looking for heavy, dense 'whole wheat' consistency their "Harvest Bread" tastes very much like 'whole wheat'. They offer a variety sampler pack of 9 different breads in 2 slice packages, if you would like to try other varieties of their breads. However, you must order that online. Actually, ordering online will give you access to their best products. I also like their brown rice sweet potato English Muffins and a 'corn loaf' which is very low calorie, high fiber bread--good for sandwiches with high calorie fillings. 'Sorry if I sound like an ad for Ener-G. I also love 'Food For Life' Brown Rice Pecan bread which is available in many 'Whole Foods' and Trader Joe's and is less expensive than Ener-G's Harvest Bread, but tastes very similar.

well i did buy a loaf of the plain white bread some time ago, and it was so horrible. it was really hard ( not soft like bread should be) and had a really weird taste. Im thinking i may have just gotten a bad loaf, becuz i hear other people mention liking that bread.

i guess i will take a chance and buy this loaf. I just hate to pay 6.00 for something that i wont like.

thanks for the info!!

the tapioca bread (and likely the rice bread) work fine for stuffing. ;-)

Lillie: My husband is trying the Ener-G bread sampler pack. He hates the white rice, brown rice breads and anything with rice flour as the first ingredient. He did like the tapioca bread, though. I won't touch anything that looks like Wonderbread, so I prefer the Food For Life Rice Pecan or Ener-G's dark Harvest bread. The sampler pack might be a good way for you to try 10 different varieties without investing in a whole loaf. I like breads with corn or potato flour as their first ingredient, but I prefer heavy, rather than light, fluffy breads.

The rice breads taste their best when toasted.
