Mestemacher Bread Three Grain, 17.6-Ounce (Pack of 6)

Best bread ever! Doesn't upset my digestive system. Half a slice is the perfect amount of grain, and two or three times a week is ideal for me. It's best toasted, I think, and then it's sturdy enough for just about anything. Lightly toasted: think tuna melts or open-face egg sandwich. Medium toasted: think egg salad or spreadables. Highly toasted: jams or butters (yum!)

I have purchased this kind of bread a few times, but this time three out of the six breads were turned into crumbs. I wonder if that package which was not in a box but in a paper bag had been tossed in transport. That is disappointing. It’s too bad because I love this bread. It’s so tasty and it has a great texture.

If you like a hearty, earthy, sourdough flavor in your bread, then you would love this bread. It makes a great sandwich, toast with butter or cheese toast. My husband even likes it with peanut butter on it. It is filling and keeps you satisfied for a long time, in addition to you getting all the many health benefits of pumpernickel. We are on our 3rd or 4th order of this bread. It also truly stays good on your shelf for a long period of time. It is dense and heavy, so it's not like typical sandwich bread. If you only like fluffier, airy bread, then you may not like this. For it's perfect. We love hearty grainy bread and we love sourdough. This is a combination of both. It's delicious and a good buy, for what you're getting.

My first subscribe and save order of this bread arrived today. I never had it before, but it met my nutritional needs and the reviews are good, so I thought I'd take a chance and it was a good choice. However, there is never a way to know the expiration date of perishables we buy on Amazon until arrival, and such is the case with this bread. I'd asked a question about this and customers responded 6-12 months on the shelf. Well, my case just arrived, February 27, and the expiration date is 7-7-13, just over four months. This short for me as I don't eat a lot of bread, MAYBE a loaf a month, and when I do buy bread at the store, I never finish a loaf before it spoils. I wanted a pantry bread, not a freezer bread. Flavor is hearty, you can feel the grains; texture heavy and crumbly. I like it. I didn't expect to open and find the slices to be long across the top. The package is not resealable, so it's necessary to put it in something else once opened. About the expiration date: I talked with Amazon support about the expiration date and was refunded half the purchase price, which I didn't expect. This kind of service is why I come to Amazon to buy just about everything, first. Edited to add: You MUST refrigerate (or freeze, as some reviewers have suggested) this bread once opened unless you eat it within 3 days. My first loaf stored in an air tight Tupperware began to mold at that point. Good bread.

This is a review for the Mestemacher Bread Three Grain, 17.6-Ounce (Pack of 6). There are several Mestemacher breads on the market and so far, each would live up to this very positive review. Even if the bread was not so excellent, I must say the company was immediate and very helpful when an issue arose. The Three grain, is a long rectangular slice, not the usual square slice. I find the long oblong slice more enjoyable to eat – don’t know why but maybe it is just being non-customary makes its experience more enjoyable. The bread’s texture is moist, compressed grains, and invitingly scrumptious. One can sense the grains and moist nature of the compound. The bread has a molasses, raisin, nutty taste. The taste is scrumptious. It is pleasantly chewy and substantial as to satiating hunger. I usually toast the bread and have used it as a sandwich, scoop for vegetable foods and as a cracker. Works great in all bread functions. I have even crumpled the bread and added it to soups to make them more hearty. It comes pre-sliced so you will have to make due. I had a problem with the last of six deliveries over the past few months. (I do like the bread and obviously have re-ordered.) I noticed the company of the issue, just to let them know. Within hours they explained the issue, and fixed the matter – on their own volition. Great bread – great company. Try it!
