Grab the freshest BREAD!

If you're like me...
when it's food shopping time---
it usually goes something like this,
make & have your list, go through the aisles as quickly as possible
and if you have a basket, go to the express lane
and if you have a cart, it's hunting down the quickest line possible.

It's seldom that I go down every aisle to check out what might be new.

Well, with bread- I spend an extra minute-
to find the freshest bread possible according to when it was baked.

Now, I might be organized and have a good eye with certain things
but no, I do not look through all the loaves of bread and check each individual date.

Here is a quick tip I'd like to share with you!

Ok, so you see the bread all lined up nicely?
From the left....

 From the right...


Can you tell which one was baked when and which loaf is the freshest?
Are they all the same?

 

Now, check out their twisty ties. You see some blue ones, green, red, yellow and white.
The date is printed on the bread but you can easily tell when it was baked by the
twisty tie color. Now, are you expected to memorize colors and their respective days?
OF COURSE NOT!  haha



So, assuming our brains aren't too fried from technology just yet...
You can tell what day of the week the bread was made in alphabetical order by color.
Color order meaning, B for blue, G for green, R, W & Y.
Blue-------- Monday
Green------Tuesday
Red--------Wednesday
White------Thursday
Yellow-----Friday


And guess what!?!?  Yes, it is universal with all bread bakers!  Ta-da!
Who said you can't learn something new everyday.
