    Extra thick aaaaaaaall the way! Be it Asda big loaf (fab for french toast!), warburtons (big orange loaf cos the green one, although very tasty, gets stuck in my toaster!), or kingsmill thick toastie yummy!

    My ex bf used to live next to the warburtons factory, made me dribble every time i walked past! The smell was so stong it confused your senses and made you think the bread was actually in ur mouth! so strange!

    Oh yes, and crusts rawk! they're the best part of the bread! yum yum!

    I've been turned to ASDA lately too, you can get sooooooooo much for a £30 shop! and the fresh stuff is reeeeeeeeeeally tasty! Their version of a warbies toastie loaf is about 40p cheaper, and just as nice and fresh and soft and yummy!

    snot round here, they're constantly replenishing the produce dpt here and it's all top notch... MUCH better than the local morrisons where u're lucky to find and unbruised banana and a carrot at mid day on a saturday.

    It's worrying I'm so loyal to some companies.. like ASDA, Orange, Nildram, Natwest and so on..
    I'm sure I've been brainwashed.. I found myself saying "there is another way" to one of my flatmates when he was moaning about his bank... hmm
    We cannot choose what we are.. but what are we but the sum of our choices?

    I've not heard of Invisible Crust before!! What an odd idea... I can underdtand why they did it, but wouldn't have thought it would sell too well... (I'm sure most normal people LIKE the crust )
    Tempted to try it (if it does appear back on the shelves again) just for the novelty factor.

    Mmm... Tiger bread is yummy Should be more of that around!


    I've had a lot of sobering thoughts in my time.... It was them that started me drinking.

    Hahaha, from the Hovis site they've linked to a bunch of press coverage of the loaf, and this is what The Times had to say:

    Great marketing skills.
