OMFG! I didn't buy three packages at once. And it wasn't even three
packages. But I had to throw out three whole packages.

I think the first two I bought went moldy when there was one slice left in
the package. 5 slices are in a package. The bread had an expiration date
of either that date or the day after. So I just figured they went moldy a
little early and didn't think anything more of it.

My daughter is on the South Beach diet. She was at the point where she
could eat 3 servings of whole grains per day. Since I myself can eat 5
pieces of bread in a week, I decided to buy TWO packages at once. I was
about to open one to make a hummus wrap when I noticed that all of the
pieces of bread in the unopened package were moldy. Very moldy. So I
looked at the second package and it was all moldy too. I don't remember the
exact date on the package now but I am pretty sure it was at least 5 days
until the expiration date. I just assumed that it had to be some sort of
fluke because as I said in my previous reply, I have been buying this same
brand of bread but in the white as opposed to the whole wheat (which this
bread was) and it never went moldy. I wound up eating my hummus on regular
whole wheat bread which is not something I can recommend. It just wasn't
very tasty.

So... I bought another package and it too went moldy before it was even
opened and there were several days until it expired.

I did *not* buy this same bread again this week but I did buy this same
brand in a pita bread, but again, whole wheat which is not what I normally
buy. I normally buy white pita bread. I will see how the whole wheat pita
holds up.
