Bread of Life...

I know, I'm not always good at including cultural/culinary Alaska stuff here, but when I read this story in the ADN yesterday, I figured I should share it with my lower 48 pals...

Alaska staple is safe: Rumors of Pilot Bread's demise are false

Seriously. I'd never even heard of the stuff before moving here. At least, not in a context other than Civil War soldiers used to complain about hardtack. Now, I eat it pretty much every day! I found myself craving it this summer, back in Wisconsin...it's the ultimate random foodstuff. The edible equivalent of a blank canvas.

Whenever we move back to the midwest, I think I'm going to have to figure out how to order the stuff...
