Vogels original grain or the Ploughmans rye loaf (you don't specify rye so hope it's okay to mention it) is pretty nice for a change but you're right, the range is huge. I'll be interested to see what others suggest and might look at trying something new myself.

I second that about the Ploughmans Rye Loaf.Its great stuff. I found that Freya looses its shape too easily

If you're eating the Vogels original mixed grain it contains 24% whole grains - wheat and rye.
Here's the website if you want to check out what's in their breads -
Like the Signature Soy and Linseed like Vogels only a lot cheaper. and the Freya's Quinoa and Flaxseed

Was looking at the factory produced breads the other day out of interest. I noted that there appeared to be good grainy breads but most had linseed and soy added as an extra health benefit. I try to never eat flax (linseed) seeds because in my opinion it is just the basis for a particularly unhealthy furniture polish nor would I eat unfermented soy.

Yes they are. I never, as a rule bother with the bread aisle so I was quite intrigued by the range of breads that are now available. I was also put off by some of the ingredients as well.

I bought the Countdown instore bakery four grain bread last week - only $2 and it was delicious - very like the five grain bread you get in cafes.

I have observed this too. But on purchasing this loaf from a few different Countdown stores find some have no seeds inside and other have seeds both inside and outside. Possibly the individual Bakery Managers building his bonus by leaving seeds out of the actual bread. Surely Countdown have a NZ wide standard for their bakeries. Complain to Head Office
