Want to buy Oroweat Winter Wheat Bread
I'm living in North Carolina, originally from California. It's my understanding that Oroweat Bread is sold in Texas. I can't find it anywhere out here. Is there anyone out there who would be willing to buy and ship me Oroweat Winter Wheat Bread? I have a PayPal account and would be more than happy to pay for the trouble of having to ship bread to me.

I have to admit that I think asking total strangers to send you a non-sealed food product through the mail is awfully risky for you and anyone who might take you up on it.

Ok, now you peaked my curiosity and I have got to go try this bread.
Someone had contacted me from Canada and asked me to mail them some "o-henry" chocolates...
Needless to say... I sent 5 lbs to them ... enough for a week?

I like to have faith in people and in Jesus...so that thought really never popped into my head. I suppose you could be right about this, thank you for your input.  |

You won't be dissapointed. It is wonderful bread. There was a cafe I used to frequent in California and they made the best little sandwiches with this bread. |

The BEST bread in the whole country !!
I live in California, and even I have trouble finding it at my local supermarket (Raley's). I have to plan my shopping schedule around the stores bread delivery schedule, because it flies off the shelf. I've even asked the manager to stock more of it . . . . . hasn't so far. I normally buy three loaves at a time and freeze!! (I wonder if that's why there isn't more on the shelf ...... everyone else is doing the same thing????)
I have heard that Walmart carries it as well, so you might check out that source if you have a superstore near you . . . if you still have no luck, let me know. I'll stage a hold up, and see if I can score big. Good luck  . . . . . . Grandma from Elk Grove, CA

so now I am tempted to look for this bread the next time I go grocery shopping--
what makes it so great and why is it not advertised as something someone would pay to have shipped out of state--
that seems like pretty impressive customer desire
PS Walmart has it on the web site but can't order on-line so check with your WalMart store--which I try to stay out of for several reasons
but sometimes need drives...
also found this rather interesting research about "healthy" bread
