Dissatisfied with bread product.

Sara Lee 100% whole wheat bread. I have been buying this bread for over two years. The quality has greatly deteriorated. The slices have become smaller and smaller, and there are holes all throughout the loaves. They should review baking procedures with their bakers. Maybe they are skimping on yeast and allowing air bubbles to form. These loaves should not pass inspection. Very disappointed. Barb Westerlund

Southern craft fried flavor chicken breast

I tried a taste of the above and was very disappointed. Doesn't taste like fried chicken...it tastes like pickles. I will never buy it and I make at least 30 sandwiches for my VFW.

Preferred solution: I'm not looking to get anything. I just tasted the product and instead of having a fried chicken flavoring it tasted like pickles which was not very appealing. I just wanted to let you know.

This fried chicken flavor is no where near the taste of fried chicken, in fact it's absolutely horrible. I took the first bite and immediately spit it out, it tasted like chemicals and pickle, just gross. Very disappointed in this one, but like the other flavors of Sara Lee chicken breast lunch meats.

This was my exact experience it tastes like Pickles! Why???

I was eating a sandwich and poked the inside of my mouth with a weird piece of either wood or stick embedded in the bread.. not sure what it was but it very much has pieces of bread in it to show it was inside the slice (saralee honey wheat) bread... Im afraid to even eat the rest now

I agree. I have noticed the holes throughout the loaves and slices getting smaller on 100% whole wheat bread also!

I also bought Sara Lee bread that smells nasty. It tastes even worse!

I contacted the company and they are sending coupons. Probably use them for bagels. Hopefully the bagels will be okay.

They do need the UPC and other info off the package. If people make the company aware, maybe they will correct the problem.

Bad bread

I have been buying your 45 calorie Delightful Multi-Grain bread a long time and have had bad luck on 3 or 4 loaves. The bread has large holes in it.....today I've had to throw away a whole loaf (minus 4 slices). I love your product, but it's way too expensive when it's got holes in it.

I opened up your bread + it smelled awful , so strong , I opened up the sack + let the air go through it for a while. I thought it would help, when I opened it the next day it smelled just as bad!!!! Yuck I can’t really point out the smell maybe ammonia!! It was not out of date, but threw it away anyway, I couldn’t eat it!!!!!! I won’t be buying any more of your products, I get tired of wasting my money!!!!

Bad smell and taste

Sara Lee Deli - Bad smell and taste

I just bought a loaf of bread from local Kroger..... I thought it was the wrapper but the loaf is tainted too! I prefer Sara Lee over other brands but cannot eat this loaf!

Sara Lee Delightful has been my favorite bread, until recently (June 2018). I bought a loaf of the Sara Lee Delightful and it smelled terrible.

Just as the previous person wrote, I too thought it was the plastic wrapper, until I tasted the bread. It tasted just as awful as it smelled.

I threw the entire loaf away. Bought a second loaf and the same thing.I went to a different store and smelled the loaf before deciding to purchase and it also stunk.Sara Lee, what is wrong with your bread?

Sharp Metal Fragment in Sarah Lee Bread

Bought a whole bag of Sarah Lee sliced bread from Ralphs East Carson st CA. Found a sharp metal fragment imbedded in one of the slices.

Immediately called the Ralphs store to check the bread lot lest somebody digests meral fagments unknowingly. Manager of the store was quick to act accordingly. Called Customer Service of Sarah Lee today to inform them of the danger. Sarah Lee was very quick to deny that it was their product and i was asked to call another number.

As seen the attached photos, it definitely is a Sarah Lee product. I will be going back to Ralphs to get another brand.

Defintely will not buy this brand again. Buyers beware!
