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 1376 Views
I know! - 21/03/2012 03:53:19 AM 962 Views
Exactly! - 21/03/2012 03:56:34 AM 1020 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 494 Views
Don't be silly. *NM* - 22/03/2012 05:04:45 PM 479 Views
I'm not. *NM* - 22/03/2012 07:48:52 PM 459 Views
Maybe it was a one-time thing. *NM* - 22/03/2012 09:51:23 PM 455 Views
It tastes like I imagine sweaty socks would, that's how. - 21/03/2012 04:59:14 AM 953 Views
- 21/03/2012 11:10:01 PM 936 Views
It depends on the rye bread. - 21/03/2012 01:40:07 PM 925 Views
Isn't that super dark and dense? - 22/03/2012 09:52:23 PM 892 Views
Ehh. I don't like most... "darker" breads, maybe? - 21/03/2012 02:01:17 PM 922 Views
Weirdo. - 22/03/2012 09:53:37 PM 1043 Views
I don't always like it because it can be dry and I hate dry food - 21/03/2012 02:47:35 PM 977 Views
I think you've had bad rye bread. - 22/03/2012 09:54:22 PM 956 Views
do you have any suggestions? *NM* - 23/03/2012 12:01:14 AM 514 Views
Try it from a nice bakery? - 23/03/2012 12:46:29 PM 835 Views
Because they're crazy. - 21/03/2012 03:04:26 PM 943 Views
Exactly. - 22/03/2012 09:54:40 PM 850 Views
It's not that rye bread is bad... - 21/03/2012 07:13:18 PM 935 Views
Um... - 22/03/2012 09:55:01 PM 860 Views
Because it tastes revoltingly? - 21/03/2012 07:32:55 PM 975 Views
Did you have it there? - 22/03/2012 09:56:32 PM 1199 Views
Huh. Looks like there are actually lots of types of rye bread. - 21/03/2012 08:01:11 PM 1027 Views
That just looks like very ordinary bread... - 21/03/2012 09:35:20 PM 934 Views
It has a lot more taste than white bread, at least. - 21/03/2012 09:46:53 PM 895 Views
It's probably easier for you to try and get hold of some pumpernickel. - 21/03/2012 10:22:34 PM 966 Views
i actually really like the TASTE of pumpernickel. - 21/03/2012 11:07:27 PM 894 Views
This is what I think of. Denser. - 22/03/2012 05:09:31 AM 975 Views
That looks like what I would call rye bread too. *NM* - 22/03/2012 07:54:52 PM 502 Views
Meh. *NM* - 21/03/2012 08:36:12 PM 448 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 911 Views
The only time I have liked rye is when it was part of a reuben. - 22/03/2012 12:56:33 PM 1011 Views

Put a burger and some cheese on it with fried onions and its good - 22/03/2012 01:20:48 PM 1037 Views
A patty melt? - 22/03/2012 10:05:01 PM 945 Views
Taste buds. The answer has something to do with having taste buds.... - 22/03/2012 08:02:24 PM 929 Views
I've seen you eat rye! - 22/03/2012 10:04:37 PM 890 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 999 Views
How on earth can you hate mayo? - 22/03/2012 10:31:08 PM 874 Views
I'm with TMJ on this one. - 22/03/2012 11:45:00 PM 945 Views
Re: I'm with TMJ on this one. - 23/03/2012 12:05:42 AM 985 Views
I'm with him on the general idea but not eating mayo for sex. - 23/03/2012 12:40:57 AM 836 Views
I didn't say you should put it on your sandwiches. Put it on your fries. - 23/03/2012 07:30:59 PM 808 Views
Not a good idea... - 23/03/2012 09:36:16 PM 892 Views
You must have missed my "good" (i.e. Belgian) qualifier. - 23/03/2012 10:24:43 PM 916 Views

I also detest mayo. *NM* - 23/03/2012 09:04:37 PM 465 Views
Don't you remember - 23/03/2012 09:23:47 PM 944 Views
i've had homemade mayo and I still dislike it - 24/03/2012 03:51:26 AM 759 Views
I suspect.... - 24/03/2012 01:52:48 PM 921 Views
this is possible, as I'm also very finicky about eggs. *NM* - 24/03/2012 02:51:59 PM 442 Views
Why would I want competition for the bread? - 23/03/2012 12:39:28 PM 953 Views
No idea what you are on about. - 22/03/2012 10:37:39 PM 1018 Views

Huh. - 23/03/2012 12:37:35 PM 955 Views
It's good that you are positively predisposed towards this bread - 25/03/2012 03:14:50 PM 1099 Views
I *think* I've already had it. Or something close. - 26/03/2012 02:02:30 PM 1011 Views
Your rye bread is all wrong - 23/03/2012 06:46:01 AM 969 Views
Orrrr, "my" rye bread is really awesome. - 23/03/2012 12:43:54 PM 899 Views
