My New Favorite Gluten-Free Store-Bought Bread!

Recently I went to the Gluten-free expo in Sandy, Utah.

There were so many gluten-free items at the expo that I would like to feature.

First–I want to mention my new favorite bread!

The bread is Mrs. Hewitt’s Bread.

It tastes just like I remember bread tasting.

It doesn’t crumble, it doesn’t taste like cardboard.
