Re: Clearer food labelling plan 'to bring an end to waste'
I notice bread lasts an awful lot longer if it's kept refrigerated, so my loafs of Warburtons tend to last well past the use by date, heh.

I was told you should never put bread in the fridge.

DON'T KEEP BREAD IN THE FRIDGE:
Contrary to popular belief, placing bread in the refrigerator doesn't extend the life of the loaf as it will go stale quicker.

Re: Clearer food labelling plan 'to bring an end to waste'
it also makes it taste horrible.
bread and moisture do not go well together

it's one of the things I hate about shop purchased sandwiches.
That and their need to put tomato in them

Re: Clearer food labelling plan 'to bring an end to waste'
We've tried keeping both home-made and shop-bought bread in the fridge and in a bread bin. The fridge wins hands down. Bread stays fresh longer, stays as moist as when new, tastes better. Keeping the bag air-tight seems to be the key.
But everyone to their own judgement.

Eh? Well, I find it tastes the same when it's from the fridge, heh.
I usually buy say, 5 loaves at once, put 4 in the freezer, the rest in the fridge, they all taste fine.
