Following on from the comfort food thread. Bread was a favourite for many when ill .
What's your favourite bread?
Where's the best crusty bread to be found?
I discovered lidl crusty cobs over Christmas. On a mad dash to Sainsburys extra i stopped at Lidl instead and discovered this crusty treat. My family thought it delicious too.
I'm a suckered for local bakers sourdough as well.

Home baked wheaten soda bread, fresh from the oven, slathered in butter and raspberry jam. Oh drool and Oh my waistline! Good job it's Lent and definitely off limits (for now).

Granary (sorry that is a protected trade name). The granary type bread specifically made by our local village baker. Expensive, yes, but worth every penny and I do not waste a crumb.

I buy Jackson's wholemeal bread, unfortunately this brand only seems to be available in Waitrose, which is annoying because I also buy a fair bit at Sainsbury's, so as I can't get it there I go for Allinson's wholemeal. Bread is my downfall, I particularly love artisan flavoured breads, crusty white french loaves, but only buy those if we are entertaining. If I could only eat one food it would probably be bread, which wouldn't be a very balanced diet sad but nevertheless delicious.

DS1's home-made focaccia with rosemary. He trained as a chef and his breads were very popular.

We have Hovis Granary Original sliced for our day to day bread. It's the only brown bread I've ever managed to like and it's really nice.

For a treat it's Lidl sourdough which is ridiculously cheap but only lasts about 5 minutes.. spread thickly with Yeo Valley organic slightly salted butter... mmm..

Of course, a loaf from any french bakery is delicious
