What should I do with all this bread?

Asked by intro24 (1434points) February 20th, 2012 from iPhone

So though a snafu, we’ll call it, I’ve come into possession of some 56 loaves of bread… What do I do with them? And don’t say eat them. I don’t intend to eat them.

Got a food pantry or soup kitchen nearby?

Well, for a few, let them go stale and make home-made bread crumbs, which you can freeze and use forever. Freeze a few loaves; make a few sandwiches.

The rest, ^^ follow @laureth‘s excellent – as always – advice.

Alright, not bad. I wasn’t sure if they’d take so much. Any sillier suggestions?

Sprinkle them with alka seltzer and feed them to the birds.

Let the who shebang go stale and pulverize to use on icy surfaces.

(How did you end up with all that bread?)

It somehow found its way to being the theme of a Rube Goldberg machine I made with some friends… We had a nice pyramid of bread on the coffee table.

I’d make up 56 pans of my fav breakfast dish and give a pan to each friend/family mamber ;)

Or I’d do what @laureth suggested above.

If you toast it all, you’re bound to end up with one that looks like Jesus or the virgin Mary. Sell it on Ebay and retire early.

Bread generally freezes well. Throw a couple in the freezer for future consumption and donate the rest to your local food pantry as @laureth suggested.

Take them to a homeless shelter. They are always looking for bread and milk.

The homeless will thank you.

I agree, give it to a homeless shelter – and quickly! :)

Donate it to your local food bank, now, before it goes stale.

Make some homemade croutons, throw a few loaves in the frizzer, and donate the rest.

Donate to neighbors, a food bank, or a homeless shelter.
