That's a decent price.



I tried to like it, but don't.  I can't stand the stuff.  I don't know why.  I couldn't cook it (tried pan fried in some light bacon grease or butter) and it just tasted like plastic to me.




I don't get it, I am the kind of guy that gets excited when a dozen dusty cans of tripe soup go on sale, but didn't like that stuff.

Price Chopper used to carry it.  I remember having it as a kid and have seen it many times since then.  I don't particularly care for it but it is kind of neat.   When I had kids I bought it for them just to try and they didn't like it either and they eat just about anything.  

I saw a film on how they make it once on TV, that was kind of cool.

[edit] looks like Price Chopper still sells it. http://pricechopper.grocerydirect.com/pd/BandM/Brown-Bread-Original/16-oz/047800341094/

Good stuff.  Lasts a long time.  I have opened cans that were close to 10 years old and they were still ok to eat just a little dry and crumbled easy.

When I have seen it in the stores, it is usually next to the B&M Baked Beans.

You really need to try it before you stack it deep.

Nobody at my house likes it at all.

Full of molasses.

and as posted above, I tried to like it, I really did.

ETA: I would NOT waste my Red Feather Butter on it.
Canned margarine, maybe.
But I would have to be really hungry.

Definitely try before you buy.  We got a can of the raisin bread & I liked it okay (prefer plain), but hubs really liked it.  The raisin one is good toasted with butter or with cream cheese.  It's definitely not like a loaf of sandwich bread, it's more dense.  It does have molasses, but I didn't think it was particularly sweet, the molasses just gives it a different flavor.  Oh, and open both ends of the can to push it out - won't pop out on its own from one end.

In this same vein, these canned cakes are delicious. My family loves these things... It's a special occasion when we break one out and share it. They are pricey but IMHO worth it for a morale boost come SHTF time.

Canned Teacakes

We opened some the other day that was about 3 years old. They are not supposed to be stored that long, but it was still GTG.

We slice it thick and put it in the toaster, just spread butter on it while hot and eat.

yep, it's a molassas bread meant to go with baked beans and hot dogs on Friday or Saturday nights in the New England area.    I grew up on it.  

It's soft, most, almost like muffin or cake textured as sdm says.  You're not going to make baloney sammiches with it but butter is perfect for it.  

the one with raisins is better.  

ETA- when I was young I think my mother just threw the whole can in the oven to warm up and opened the can when it came out.  I follow the directions and open the can, push it out and wrap it in foil and warm it in the oven before slathering it with copious amounts of butter.  Reminds me of the fall and winter as a kid.

ETA2- All the major supermarkets carry it in NY, heck even the IGA stores type have it.  Right on the aisle with beans.

Man I love that stuff. We went to Maine on a bear hunt last year and I loaded up on that. I warmed it in the can and put the real buttah' to it as the locals called it. We ate a can of it every day and brought back several more along with fresh lobsters. I'm ready to go back just for the bread and lobster.

It isn't any good for making sandwiches but melt some butter on top and it is very tasty.

Interesting.

I've seen cake made in canning jars and you put the lids and bands on right after you take the jar out of the oven and it seals for storage.

Never thought about bread.

Good stuff, WB, too bad you guys dont like it. A tablespoon of molasses has way-more potassium in it than a banana. That might be something to think about after SHTF and we are all starving for good nutrients.

I grew up on this stuff, and my mother used to make her own as well. Its definitely a New Englander thing. Back in the day, sugar was scarce up here, and stuff made with molasses or maple syrup was the norm.

I tried it warm, I tried toasting it,
I could not make it through a whole can.

The one thing I should have probably tried was pouring B&M baked beans over it.

However, baked beans are not a favorite of mine, either.

I had a recipe for it that died on my old Dell.
IIRC you fill up an empty can with the batter, cover it and put it in a pan of boiling water.

don't try this at home until you verify that!

I could eat a ton of that stuff with cream cheese.

Yo!

That's how we always had it growing up.  

I bought a few variety cases of canned cake and breads from MRE Depot a few years ago.  Never tried any of them but they had a good variety.

Publix can order the plain stuff for you, but you have to buy a case. The one with the raisins is better anyways.

The good thing about living in a region that is culturally inert is that I am not constrained by the traditions of y'all.



I like that stuff in the morning, sitting around the campfire, with a cup of hot black coffee and some slices of apple. Two slices, an apple and two cups of coffee and I am stuffed.

Like some of the other posters, I grew up eating brown bread with hotdogs and baked beans.  I loved it!!  One quick and easy way to heat it is to open the top most of the way, and put it in a pot with water filling most of it. Heat until the water boils, and then keep at at simmer for 10 minutes or so.  Take it out with tongs, hold the can with a towel, open both ends, and push out the bread.
