Up here we have Price Chopper and Hannaford. Both have artisan breads with the hard crusty exterior and very textured inside (with holes).....not the fluffy cotton candy bread from the bread aisle.

Even so called "hero rolls" and "sub rolls" in the bread aisle are like "mush in the mouth".........hard to explain what's happened to hot dog rolls, hamburger rolls, etc.............we've started using Kaiser rolls for our hamburger buns.............since they took the trans fats or "something" out of the normal breads, they are all MUSH.

Bread used to be the "staff of life". Not any more.
Publix and Winn Dixie have a reasonable assortment of crusty breads in their bakery section. I don't know what the big problem is. Maybe I'm just not that fussy.
