Bread in a can

[MyName]

I don't think I've had it, and I'm from CT and have lived in the Northeast my whole life.

It sounds like a girl scout project or something. It would probably go well with the butter we made by shaking a jar of cream for an entire troop meeting. lol

ETA:  I have seen this before but never eaten it.

@ello, she can order a case from Amazon if she misses it that much! lol

I have lived on the EC my entire life and have never heard of it.

Same.  I've moved around the east cost, and still never heard of it.

It is so good!

You usually slice and broil or toast.

It's very similar to banana bread, carrot cake, etc. Sweet, not savory. More of a side or even desert if you get it with raisins.

Basically - it's just sold in what it has been baked in, vs. being removed like traditional bread and placed in a bag. Store bought banana breads and other sweat breads are usually told in disposable foil baking pans. Very similar concept.

I'm also in CT, but grew up in Maine. I don't think I've ever seen it in CT. I think it's a very "far north" thing.

Yeah, I lived in Boston for 4 years before I moved to NYC, so that is probably where I saw it.

I don't go here but I saw "bread in a can" on the front page and I knew what you were talking about. I could eat that whole can. Slice it up, toast it, slather it with cream cheese and scarf. It may be a northeast thing, not east coast. I'm in Boston.

ETA: and no one will know wth she's asking for if she asks for "bread in a can." It's "brown bread."

I am going to Maine next weekend, and now I'm going to look for it so I can try it!

[theatre4life]

Lol, I have been in VA my entire life, and up and down the east coast and have never heard of or seen this before.

My mother was raised outside of Boston so I think that's why I'm familiar with it - I was raised in upstate NY but have found this in a Colorado grocery store. And it is yummy!

[lizardesque]

I'm still not sure I understand what it is. Do you take what's in the can and bake it, or is it ready to eat out of the can?

[lizardesque]

That is weird.

[blondemoment123]

Eww.

[acr]

From Texas. I love it - my grandmother would order it from a catalog

[lexxasaurus]

I have never heard of that. I don't know if I could eat bread in a can.

[fairygodmother]

Ditto MixedBerryJam- my Boston relatives served that on the regular... I am not a huge fan but my sister loves it and will buy it when up there, to bring home like a delicacy.

[jennynumbers]

I've had it. Not a fan, but mostly because I don't like the molasses flavor. I think you open and pop it out, if I remember correctly.

MH likes it with baked beans and hot dogs. I like it left on the retail shelf
