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 1428 Views
I know! - 21/03/2012 03:53:19 AM 1016 Views
Exactly! - 21/03/2012 03:56:34 AM 1064 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 579 Views
Don't be silly. *NM* - 22/03/2012 05:04:45 PM 507 Views
I'm not. *NM* - 22/03/2012 07:48:52 PM 488 Views
Maybe it was a one-time thing. *NM* - 22/03/2012 09:51:23 PM 485 Views
It tastes like I imagine sweaty socks would, that's how. - 21/03/2012 04:59:14 AM 1034 Views

It depends on the rye bread. - 21/03/2012 01:40:07 PM 981 Views
Isn't that super dark and dense? - 22/03/2012 09:52:23 PM 950 Views
Ehh. I don't like most... "darker" breads, maybe? - 21/03/2012 02:01:17 PM 981 Views
Weirdo. - 22/03/2012 09:53:37 PM 1091 Views
I don't always like it because it can be dry and I hate dry food - 21/03/2012 02:47:35 PM 1028 Views
I think you've had bad rye bread. - 22/03/2012 09:54:22 PM 1005 Views
do you have any suggestions? *NM* - 23/03/2012 12:01:14 AM 545 Views
Try it from a nice bakery? - 23/03/2012 12:46:29 PM 890 Views
Because they're crazy. - 21/03/2012 03:04:26 PM 1003 Views
Exactly. - 22/03/2012 09:54:40 PM 909 Views
It's not that rye bread is bad... - 21/03/2012 07:13:18 PM 989 Views
Um... - 22/03/2012 09:55:01 PM 911 Views
Because it tastes revoltingly? - 21/03/2012 07:32:55 PM 1031 Views
Did you have it there? - 22/03/2012 09:56:32 PM 1255 Views
Huh. Looks like there are actually lots of types of rye bread. - 21/03/2012 08:01:11 PM 1096 Views
That just looks like very ordinary bread... - 21/03/2012 09:35:20 PM 992 Views
It has a lot more taste than white bread, at least. - 21/03/2012 09:46:53 PM 948 Views
It's probably easier for you to try and get hold of some pumpernickel. - 21/03/2012 10:22:34 PM 1027 Views
i actually really like the TASTE of pumpernickel. - 21/03/2012 11:07:27 PM 944 Views
This is what I think of. Denser. - 22/03/2012 05:09:31 AM 1036 Views
That looks like what I would call rye bread too. *NM* - 22/03/2012 07:54:52 PM 537 Views
Meh. *NM* - 21/03/2012 08:36:12 PM 480 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 966 Views
The only time I have liked rye is when it was part of a reuben. - 22/03/2012 12:56:33 PM 1065 Views

Put a burger and some cheese on it with fried onions and its good - 22/03/2012 01:20:48 PM 1085 Views
A patty melt? - 22/03/2012 10:05:01 PM 995 Views
Taste buds. The answer has something to do with having taste buds.... - 22/03/2012 08:02:24 PM 983 Views
I've seen you eat rye! - 22/03/2012 10:04:37 PM 937 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 1055 Views
How on earth can you hate mayo? - 22/03/2012 10:31:08 PM 929 Views
I'm with TMJ on this one. - 22/03/2012 11:45:00 PM 995 Views
Re: I'm with TMJ on this one. - 23/03/2012 12:05:42 AM 1039 Views
I'm with him on the general idea but not eating mayo for sex. - 23/03/2012 12:40:57 AM 886 Views
I didn't say you should put it on your sandwiches. Put it on your fries. - 23/03/2012 07:30:59 PM 866 Views
Not a good idea... - 23/03/2012 09:36:16 PM 951 Views
You must have missed my "good" (i.e. Belgian) qualifier. - 23/03/2012 10:24:43 PM 976 Views

I also detest mayo. *NM* - 23/03/2012 09:04:37 PM 498 Views
Don't you remember - 23/03/2012 09:23:47 PM 999 Views
i've had homemade mayo and I still dislike it - 24/03/2012 03:51:26 AM 830 Views
I suspect.... - 24/03/2012 01:52:48 PM 974 Views
this is possible, as I'm also very finicky about eggs. *NM* - 24/03/2012 02:51:59 PM 467 Views
Why would I want competition for the bread? - 23/03/2012 12:39:28 PM 1007 Views
No idea what you are on about. - 22/03/2012 10:37:39 PM 1074 Views

Huh. - 23/03/2012 12:37:35 PM 1018 Views
It's good that you are positively predisposed towards this bread - 25/03/2012 03:14:50 PM 1171 Views
I *think* I've already had it. Or something close. - 26/03/2012 02:02:30 PM 1060 Views
Your rye bread is all wrong - 23/03/2012 06:46:01 AM 1019 Views
Orrrr, "my" rye bread is really awesome. - 23/03/2012 12:43:54 PM 970 Views
