How to Buy Fresh Bread

When you go to buy bread in the grocery store, have you ever wondered which is the freshest, so you "squeeze" for freshness or softness.

Did you know that bread is delivered fresh to the stores five days a week? Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday.

And each day has a different color twist tie.
They are:
Monday - Blue
Tuesday - Green
Thursday - Red
Friday - White
Saturday - Yellow

The colors go alphabetically by color:
Blue - Green - Red - White -Yellow, Monday thru Saturday.
Very easy to remember. But I put a post-it note in my wallet when I first found out about this so I would not forget.

Enjoy fresh bread when you buy bread with the right color on the day you are shopping.

How in the world did you figure that out? I wonder if that is true for every store? I am going to start paying attentions now :)

I didn't figure it out. Someone sent it to me and I thought it was pretty interesting.
