It's probably easier for you to try and get hold of some pumpernickel. Legolas Send a noteboard - 21/03/2012 10:22:34 PM
I have no idea how it compares to pumpernickel-style bread, but the rye bread I eat definitely has flavour. I eat whole grain bread with my lunches (mmm), and my rye bread has even more flavour than that. But it definitely seems to be different from what you and Celia are describing. I'm thinking it might be a dumbed-down Canadian version of rye bread that's easier on the taste buds.

Nah, it's not as if you can't buy rye bread here that's brown instead of black and doesn't taste vile. It's just when someone makes a controversial post like that (yes, Jen, I'm looking at you!), one is inclined to think of the controversial kind of rye bread, the kind that is vehemently loathed and equally vehemently defended - which is the pumpernickel-style bread.
I want to mail you all stale pieces of it to show you that I'm not crazy, but the very act of mailing you bread would disprove my hypothesis.

I believe you. :P Do try to eat pumpernickel sometime, and then try telling me it's not vile.

How do people not like rye bread? - 21/03/2012 03:50:15 AM 1316 Views
I know! - 21/03/2012 03:53:19 AM 906 Views
Exactly! - 21/03/2012 03:56:34 AM 964 Views
If you eat tuna salad, you have lost any credibility to comment tastefully on culinary matters. *NM* - 21/03/2012 05:00:29 AM 455 Views
Don't be silly. *NM* - 22/03/2012 05:04:45 PM 460 Views
I'm not. *NM* - 22/03/2012 07:48:52 PM 435 Views
Maybe it was a one-time thing. *NM* - 22/03/2012 09:51:23 PM 435 Views
It tastes like I imagine sweaty socks would, that's how. - 21/03/2012 04:59:14 AM 889 Views

It depends on the rye bread. - 21/03/2012 01:40:07 PM 870 Views
Isn't that super dark and dense? - 22/03/2012 09:52:23 PM 847 Views
Ehh. I don't like most... "darker" breads, maybe? - 21/03/2012 02:01:17 PM 872 Views
Weirdo. - 22/03/2012 09:53:37 PM 994 Views
I don't always like it because it can be dry and I hate dry food - 21/03/2012 02:47:35 PM 897 Views
I think you've had bad rye bread. - 22/03/2012 09:54:22 PM 908 Views
do you have any suggestions? *NM* - 23/03/2012 12:01:14 AM 477 Views
Try it from a nice bakery? - 23/03/2012 12:46:29 PM 789 Views
Because they're crazy. - 21/03/2012 03:04:26 PM 893 Views
Exactly. - 22/03/2012 09:54:40 PM 803 Views
It's not that rye bread is bad... - 21/03/2012 07:13:18 PM 879 Views
Um... - 22/03/2012 09:55:01 PM 806 Views
Because it tastes revoltingly? - 21/03/2012 07:32:55 PM 926 Views
Did you have it there? - 22/03/2012 09:56:32 PM 1157 Views
Huh. Looks like there are actually lots of types of rye bread. - 21/03/2012 08:01:11 PM 973 Views
That just looks like very ordinary bread... - 21/03/2012 09:35:20 PM 888 Views
It has a lot more taste than white bread, at least. - 21/03/2012 09:46:53 PM 846 Views
It's probably easier for you to try and get hold of some pumpernickel. - 21/03/2012 10:22:34 PM 910 Views
i actually really like the TASTE of pumpernickel. - 21/03/2012 11:07:27 PM 849 Views
This is what I think of. Denser. - 22/03/2012 05:09:31 AM 921 Views
That looks like what I would call rye bread too. *NM* - 22/03/2012 07:54:52 PM 456 Views
Meh. *NM* - 21/03/2012 08:36:12 PM 430 Views
Because they don't pair it with the proper flavors. It needs to go with something that has a kick. - 22/03/2012 12:03:40 AM 860 Views
The only time I have liked rye is when it was part of a reuben. - 22/03/2012 12:56:33 PM 957 Views
They have now been educated. - 22/03/2012 10:00:15 PM 863 Views
Good question - 22/03/2012 12:10:30 AM 809 Views

The one thing I can say with definitiveness... - 23/03/2012 12:35:34 AM 886 Views
Put a burger and some cheese on it with fried onions and its good - 22/03/2012 01:20:48 PM 977 Views
A patty melt? - 22/03/2012 10:05:01 PM 895 Views
Taste buds. The answer has something to do with having taste buds.... - 22/03/2012 08:02:24 PM 873 Views
I've seen you eat rye! - 22/03/2012 10:04:37 PM 823 Views
Did you promise him sex? I'd eat a spoonful of mayo if my wife promised sex as a reward. - 22/03/2012 10:14:46 PM 950 Views
How on earth can you hate mayo? - 22/03/2012 10:31:08 PM 815 Views
I'm with TMJ on this one. - 22/03/2012 11:45:00 PM 899 Views
Re: I'm with TMJ on this one. - 23/03/2012 12:05:42 AM 927 Views
I'm with him on the general idea but not eating mayo for sex. - 23/03/2012 12:40:57 AM 784 Views
I didn't say you should put it on your sandwiches. Put it on your fries. - 23/03/2012 07:30:59 PM 760 Views
Not a good idea... - 23/03/2012 09:36:16 PM 850 Views
You must have missed my "good" (i.e. Belgian) qualifier. - 23/03/2012 10:24:43 PM 864 Views

Mayonnaise is revolting. *NM* - 23/03/2012 12:38:34 AM 455 Views
I also detest mayo. *NM* - 23/03/2012 09:04:37 PM 431 Views
Don't you remember - 23/03/2012 09:23:47 PM 900 Views
i've had homemade mayo and I still dislike it - 24/03/2012 03:51:26 AM 706 Views
I suspect.... - 24/03/2012 01:52:48 PM 870 Views
this is possible, as I'm also very finicky about eggs. *NM* - 24/03/2012 02:51:59 PM 420 Views
Why would I want competition for the bread? - 23/03/2012 12:39:28 PM 908 Views
No idea what you are on about. - 22/03/2012 10:37:39 PM 974 Views

That looks awesome. I wanna try it *NM* - 23/03/2012 07:28:10 AM 460 Views
Huh. - 23/03/2012 12:37:35 PM 899 Views
It's good that you are positively predisposed towards this bread - 25/03/2012 03:14:50 PM 1020 Views
I *think* I've already had it. Or something close. - 26/03/2012 02:02:30 PM 949 Views
Your rye bread is all wrong - 23/03/2012 06:46:01 AM 920 Views
Orrrr, "my" rye bread is really awesome. - 23/03/2012 12:43:54 PM 849 Views
