B&M Brown Bread, Original Flavor, 16 Ounce (Pack of 12)

Fresh, moist and really good. I ordered a case and was afraid I'd get dated or almost dated cans but they were brand new.

Back in the 1960's. Mom used to heat this up in the oven, slice it, then add cream cheese.These days, I heat up only a few slices at a time in the nuker for about 15 - 20 seconds.Now I add other toppings like Cottage cheese, youghurt, honey, jam, peanut butter, (or a combo), etc.YUM YUM !!

This is great to have on hand. We love it with cream cheese

I like it and would buy it again. Bigger than I thought! Has a bran muffin taste. Rich and dense, and ever so slightly sweet. Definitely taste the molasses, which I like. Overall I just wasnt sure what to expect as I hadn't had this before, but I like it. I bought on a whim. I was hungry, haha.Makes nice addition to preps but just a good pantry staple now too. Eat as snack, eat with a bowl of something hot. Definitely more muffin like than bread like but all good. Toss one in emergency supplies in car, put one in hiking pack, keep one at work. Of course, need a can opener. The portability and long long shelf life is greatly appealing.Have to open can from both ends, and use a spoon to push out--with some force. Came out all in one piece.

Brown bread in a can is great toasted with butter and whatever topping you choose. Great to have on hand for any situation that may occur and always a hit at deer camp.

We looked at every grocery store in our area. None of them carry this great brown bread. I thought I would try Amazon and sure enough, there it was! If you are like us and prepare for the unexpected this is perfect for the pantry. You can wrap it in aluminium foil and heat it over an open fire. I'm 74 and ate this when I was a little kid. It's just as good now. How will you get bread when the electricity goes out? This 12 pack was even lower priced than when we used to buy it in the store. Think about it. Warmed up and topped with cream cheese is like a dessert! It also arrived earlier than expected. Not one can was dented. We have lived through typhoons, tsunamis and blizzards with no power. Someone always wants bread, this has saved us more times than I can remember.

Negative reviews I have read seem to be linked to inappropriate expectations of the product. The recipe is an old one. A few hundred years ago, there was no refined white sugar -- only various grades of brown sugar. Sugar was costly but useful as a preservative. Vinegar, sugar, and salt were frequently employed to increase the shelf life of food. Canning, pickling, and drying were commonplace.Wheat grew poorly in the colonies. Rye was grown along side to hedge bets on a successful harvest. The native corn grew quite well, and so bread products were often a mix of all three grains. After the harvest, there were many months without fresh food. With sugar being costly, muffins were a sweet treat, and with the mix of the three unrefined grains, Boston brown Bread was similar to a rustic version of cornbread or bran muffins.This bread was useful when fresh bread could not be had or readily baked during the bitter winter months. It is substantial, dense, and wonderful, like canned bran muffins.My cans arrived un-dented and in perfect condition. The expiry was three years hence.As per the instructions on the can, simply open both ends and push the bread out from one side. What slides out is like a large cylindrical bran muffin. It can then be easily sliced into eight equal portions with a clean knife. Imagine the bottom part of a bran muffin without the muffin top.I was surprised to find some people could not tolerate the flavor, as I found it innocuous. It seemed to me as easy to eat as oatmeal, bagels, or bran muffins. What CAN these folks eat?The flavor and density is similar to that of a bran muffin: mild molasses sweetness, good wheat flavor, dense and chewy. the bread toasts easily. If you enjoy toast, you'll find this is... similar to a toasted bran muffin

I thought this would be great with a little butter and coffee, but for some reason my taste buds didn't care for the flavor. So I donated the cans to a local church food bank. We all can't enjoy the same flavors.
