When I first moved to the US, I found it very difficult to find a good quality, freely baked bread. I went to the supermarket and everything I saw was in a plastic bag and tasted artificial. I was so disappointed. I missed my crusty, warm bread from the bakery around the corner, in my hometown in Poland. Even regular grocery stores had a good quality fresh, crusty bread. | When I first moved to the US, I found it very difficult to find a good quality, freely baked bread.
