A Word About Bread




What is wrong with Mexican grocery stores and their bread selections? Most of them only carry the cheap-ass square-shaped Bimbo brand bread that's like Wonder Bread with added sugar. If you live in el barrio como yo, you probably know what I'm talking about. My corner Mexican grocery now carries non-square bread that looks like the normal wheat bread you see in other stores, except it tastes the same as the square bread and is probably just dyed brown. They don't carry any real whole wheat bread, but they do carry whole wheat tortillas. A peanut butter and jelly sandwich just isn't the same when it's wrapped up like a burrito, and I've tried it enough times to know.

    I know exactly what you mean. The little Mexican store on Mission and 25th has the same damn bread. I end up walking all the way to Cala just because I wanted to make a sandwich.
