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 1401 Views
I know! - 21/03/2012 03:53:19 AM 990 Views
Exactly! - 21/03/2012 03:56:34 AM 1037 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 531 Views
Don't be silly. *NM* - 22/03/2012 05:04:45 PM 492 Views
I'm not. *NM* - 22/03/2012 07:48:52 PM 468 Views
Maybe it was a one-time thing. *NM* - 22/03/2012 09:51:23 PM 467 Views
It tastes like I imagine sweaty socks would, that's how. - 21/03/2012 04:59:14 AM 992 Views

It depends on the rye bread. - 21/03/2012 01:40:07 PM 953 Views
Isn't that super dark and dense? - 22/03/2012 09:52:23 PM 924 Views
Ehh. I don't like most... "darker" breads, maybe? - 21/03/2012 02:01:17 PM 949 Views
Weirdo. - 22/03/2012 09:53:37 PM 1064 Views
I don't always like it because it can be dry and I hate dry food - 21/03/2012 02:47:35 PM 998 Views
I think you've had bad rye bread. - 22/03/2012 09:54:22 PM 981 Views
do you have any suggestions? *NM* - 23/03/2012 12:01:14 AM 525 Views
Try it from a nice bakery? - 23/03/2012 12:46:29 PM 861 Views
Because they're crazy. - 21/03/2012 03:04:26 PM 972 Views
Exactly. - 22/03/2012 09:54:40 PM 876 Views
It's not that rye bread is bad... - 21/03/2012 07:13:18 PM 960 Views
Um... - 22/03/2012 09:55:01 PM 887 Views
Because it tastes revoltingly? - 21/03/2012 07:32:55 PM 1003 Views
Did you have it there? - 22/03/2012 09:56:32 PM 1225 Views
Huh. Looks like there are actually lots of types of rye bread. - 21/03/2012 08:01:11 PM 1054 Views
That just looks like very ordinary bread... - 21/03/2012 09:35:20 PM 963 Views
It has a lot more taste than white bread, at least. - 21/03/2012 09:46:53 PM 919 Views
It's probably easier for you to try and get hold of some pumpernickel. - 21/03/2012 10:22:34 PM 996 Views
i actually really like the TASTE of pumpernickel. - 21/03/2012 11:07:27 PM 919 Views
This is what I think of. Denser. - 22/03/2012 05:09:31 AM 1006 Views
That looks like what I would call rye bread too. *NM* - 22/03/2012 07:54:52 PM 520 Views
Meh. *NM* - 21/03/2012 08:36:12 PM 460 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 936 Views
The only time I have liked rye is when it was part of a reuben. - 22/03/2012 12:56:33 PM 1035 Views

The one thing I can say with definitiveness... - 23/03/2012 12:35:34 AM 963 Views
Put a burger and some cheese on it with fried onions and its good - 22/03/2012 01:20:48 PM 1058 Views
A patty melt? - 22/03/2012 10:05:01 PM 968 Views
Taste buds. The answer has something to do with having taste buds.... - 22/03/2012 08:02:24 PM 954 Views
I've seen you eat rye! - 22/03/2012 10:04:37 PM 914 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 1022 Views
How on earth can you hate mayo? - 22/03/2012 10:31:08 PM 901 Views
I'm with TMJ on this one. - 22/03/2012 11:45:00 PM 969 Views
Re: I'm with TMJ on this one. - 23/03/2012 12:05:42 AM 1010 Views
I'm with him on the general idea but not eating mayo for sex. - 23/03/2012 12:40:57 AM 860 Views
I didn't say you should put it on your sandwiches. Put it on your fries. - 23/03/2012 07:30:59 PM 837 Views
Not a good idea... - 23/03/2012 09:36:16 PM 921 Views
You must have missed my "good" (i.e. Belgian) qualifier. - 23/03/2012 10:24:43 PM 946 Views

I also detest mayo. *NM* - 23/03/2012 09:04:37 PM 481 Views
Don't you remember - 23/03/2012 09:23:47 PM 971 Views
i've had homemade mayo and I still dislike it - 24/03/2012 03:51:26 AM 801 Views
I suspect.... - 24/03/2012 01:52:48 PM 948 Views
this is possible, as I'm also very finicky about eggs. *NM* - 24/03/2012 02:51:59 PM 450 Views
Why would I want competition for the bread? - 23/03/2012 12:39:28 PM 976 Views
No idea what you are on about. - 22/03/2012 10:37:39 PM 1045 Views

Huh. - 23/03/2012 12:37:35 PM 977 Views
It's good that you are positively predisposed towards this bread - 25/03/2012 03:14:50 PM 1134 Views
I *think* I've already had it. Or something close. - 26/03/2012 02:02:30 PM 1036 Views
Your rye bread is all wrong - 23/03/2012 06:46:01 AM 992 Views
