Oh, boy howdy, gee. Back-to-BACK posts that are on holidays can you believe it. Can you believe it. Last month's post was posted on the Halloween Holiday and this month's post was posted on the Pilgrim Holiday for Pilgrims. Unbelievable. What next? Santa? 😕 Well, another holiday bread review featuring a bread that has nothing to do with the holiday that the review is being posted on. Shocker! This month, we have the POWERSEED variant of the Dave's Killer Bread brand. Talk about a doozy.
Now, I purchased this bread because the packaging just REALLY caught my eye. Not only is there a large, muscular, mustache faced man on the bag, he is also playing what SEEMS to be a GUITAR of AMBIGUOUS MODEL. Now if that's not a reason to purchase a bread, I don't know what is. Also the name: POWERSEED. I imagine it's in reference to guitar power chords which some people may or may not be familiar with, but I like to think that the name really resembles the Socioeconomic Status of the person who purchases this bread. This loaf is six dollars.
This was honestly a pretty good bread. I admit, the packaging is what sold the product for me, but the bread is definitely nothing to scoff at either. Also, it includes the best ever danger label: Now THAT'S a POWERFUL SENTENCE. Perfect for the POWERSEED model of bread that this is. "Contains: Wheat." What an absolute power move. Also on the nutrition label, it says that the serving size is "1 ea," and it's anyone's guess what the crap that's supposed to mean. I assume it means 1 serving for each slice of bread, but then just below that it says "Servings Per Container 17," Now Wait Here Just A Gosh Darn Minute. You mean to tell me that there are 17 slices of bread in this package? I KNOW that's a false statement because I PURCHASED this bread and made EXACTLY nine sandwiches with this bread. I KNOW THAT. Now, I admit there could have been one or three or some other odd number of instances where I got up in the middle of the night in a coma-induced haze and ate a slice of bread without committing those actions to memory. So, either there is one slice of bread that has zero calories, or I'm a liar. Both are equally likely.
Now, let me tell you something right here and now. This bread is DENSE. This is a dense bread. There's a lotta bread in there. Each slice packs a particularly Dense punch of bread. "There's a lot of bread in that there slice," I would often think to myself while eating this bread. Ever eat a Popeye's biscuit and you take a small bite it basically fills your entire lungs with freaking biscuit. Well, it's kind of like that only not as dry. This is a dense bread.
Overall, I enjoyed this bread. It's got quite a bit of seeds littering the top of the loaf, as the name POWERSEED suggests. It's got 'em! The bread is pretty tasty, despite being dense. The color is what most would generally consider to be Bread Color. And the logo is just Great. Just Great. Should you wish to try this bread for yourself, I must warn you: Wheat.
Overall bread rating: 9.59/10
Thanks.
