Well... not really that much rye actually DomA Send a noteboard - 24/03/2012 09:56:39 PM
So, what's your point? The "other kind" is still rye!


The kind you're talking about is the type used by delicatessen - either light chocolate brown, golden brown or usually white, seasonned with seeds? (it is really good. I agree with you - my city is even famous for it)

It's called "rye bread' on our side of the ocean, but it's made mostly with wheat flour with a small percentage of rye flour, mostly for flavour. There's a bit more in the chocolate brown type, but really not much if you're talking about the white type.

Real "rye bread" is the very dense black bread type. People of French descent/culture hate it so much that we still have this expression "(you) have to eat (your) black bread" which means an euphemism to say someone is copping with extreme poverty/misery. :)

How do people not like rye bread? - 21/03/2012 03:50:15 AM 1190 Views
I know! - 21/03/2012 03:53:19 AM 769 Views
Exactly! - 21/03/2012 03:56:34 AM 824 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 383 Views
Don't be silly. *NM* - 22/03/2012 05:04:45 PM 389 Views
I'm not. *NM* - 22/03/2012 07:48:52 PM 382 Views
Maybe it was a one-time thing. *NM* - 22/03/2012 09:51:23 PM 374 Views
It tastes like I imagine sweaty socks would, that's how. - 21/03/2012 04:59:14 AM 742 Views
- 21/03/2012 11:10:01 PM 766 Views
It depends on the rye bread. - 21/03/2012 01:40:07 PM 735 Views
Isn't that super dark and dense? - 22/03/2012 09:52:23 PM 712 Views
Ehh. I don't like most... "darker" breads, maybe? - 21/03/2012 02:01:17 PM 740 Views
Weirdo. - 22/03/2012 09:53:37 PM 842 Views
I don't always like it because it can be dry and I hate dry food - 21/03/2012 02:47:35 PM 755 Views
I think you've had bad rye bread. - 22/03/2012 09:54:22 PM 775 Views
do you have any suggestions? *NM* - 23/03/2012 12:01:14 AM 416 Views
Try it from a nice bakery? - 23/03/2012 12:46:29 PM 649 Views
Because they're crazy. - 21/03/2012 03:04:26 PM 757 Views
Exactly. - 22/03/2012 09:54:40 PM 680 Views
It's not that rye bread is bad... - 21/03/2012 07:13:18 PM 750 Views
Um... - 22/03/2012 09:55:01 PM 667 Views
Because it tastes revoltingly? - 21/03/2012 07:32:55 PM 791 Views
Did you have it there? - 22/03/2012 09:56:32 PM 1016 Views
See below - if it's not the really dense type, I'm not sure what the controversy is. - 22/03/2012 10:29:05 PM 850 Views
So, are you saying you might like rye if you don't think about the one you hate? - 23/03/2012 12:35:20 PM 779 Views
I'm saying the kind of rye bread that "people" don't like is the black one, in my experience. - 23/03/2012 07:28:31 PM 669 Views
But that is not all rye, by a long shot. - 24/03/2012 08:09:50 PM 810 Views
Well... not really that much rye actually - 24/03/2012 09:56:39 PM 741 Views
Huh. Looks like there are actually lots of types of rye bread. - 21/03/2012 08:01:11 PM 821 Views
That just looks like very ordinary bread... - 21/03/2012 09:35:20 PM 746 Views
It has a lot more taste than white bread, at least. - 21/03/2012 09:46:53 PM 711 Views
It's probably easier for you to try and get hold of some pumpernickel. - 21/03/2012 10:22:34 PM 784 Views
i actually really like the TASTE of pumpernickel. - 21/03/2012 11:07:27 PM 718 Views
This is what I think of. Denser. - 22/03/2012 05:09:31 AM 774 Views
That looks like what I would call rye bread too. *NM* - 22/03/2012 07:54:52 PM 401 Views
Meh. *NM* - 21/03/2012 08:36:12 PM 369 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 724 Views
The only time I have liked rye is when it was part of a reuben. - 22/03/2012 12:56:33 PM 802 Views
They have now been educated. - 22/03/2012 10:00:15 PM 719 Views
Good question - 22/03/2012 12:10:30 AM 677 Views
Got one? *NM* - 22/03/2012 10:03:48 PM 405 Views
The one thing I can say with definitiveness... - 23/03/2012 12:35:34 AM 745 Views
Put a burger and some cheese on it with fried onions and its good - 22/03/2012 01:20:48 PM 777 Views
A patty melt? - 22/03/2012 10:05:01 PM 752 Views
Taste buds. The answer has something to do with having taste buds.... - 22/03/2012 08:02:24 PM 737 Views
I've seen you eat rye! - 22/03/2012 10:04:37 PM 689 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 815 Views
How on earth can you hate mayo? - 22/03/2012 10:31:08 PM 684 Views
I'm with TMJ on this one. - 22/03/2012 11:45:00 PM 768 Views
Re: I'm with TMJ on this one. - 23/03/2012 12:05:42 AM 790 Views
I'm with him on the general idea but not eating mayo for sex. - 23/03/2012 12:40:57 AM 685 Views
I didn't say you should put it on your sandwiches. Put it on your fries. - 23/03/2012 07:30:59 PM 630 Views
Not a good idea... - 23/03/2012 09:36:16 PM 712 Views
You must have missed my "good" (i.e. Belgian) qualifier. - 23/03/2012 10:24:43 PM 738 Views
Re: You must have missed my "good" (i.e. Belgian) qualifier. - 24/03/2012 03:08:03 AM 647 Views
Mayonnaise is revolting. *NM* - 23/03/2012 12:38:34 AM 393 Views
I also detest mayo. *NM* - 23/03/2012 09:04:37 PM 371 Views
Don't you remember - 23/03/2012 09:23:47 PM 768 Views
i've had homemade mayo and I still dislike it - 24/03/2012 03:51:26 AM 605 Views
I suspect.... - 24/03/2012 01:52:48 PM 734 Views
this is possible, as I'm also very finicky about eggs. *NM* - 24/03/2012 02:51:59 PM 363 Views
Why would I want competition for the bread? - 23/03/2012 12:39:28 PM 765 Views
No idea what you are on about. - 22/03/2012 10:37:39 PM 833 Views
This is what Dutch rye bread looks like - 23/03/2012 05:23:28 AM 750 Views
That looks awesome. I wanna try it *NM* - 23/03/2012 07:28:10 AM 399 Views
Huh. - 23/03/2012 12:37:35 PM 770 Views
It's good that you are positively predisposed towards this bread - 25/03/2012 03:14:50 PM 870 Views
I *think* I've already had it. Or something close. - 26/03/2012 02:02:30 PM 820 Views
Your rye bread is all wrong - 23/03/2012 06:46:01 AM 781 Views
Orrrr, "my" rye bread is really awesome. - 23/03/2012 12:43:54 PM 725 Views
