Hi! Extremely strange request but does anyone know of any grocery stores around Providence/Southern Mass that sells canned bread? My dad and aunt were reminiscing about it recently so I thought it would be a fun little gift for Christmas. Thank you!

Baked beans and canned brown bread was one of my favorite lunches as a kid.

The only time I've had canned brown bread has been with baked beans. It's an old New England thing, and B&M makes both.

Brown bread is almost always near the baked beans. they go fantastic together!!

goes great for breakfast too w eggs.

open the cans at both ends, slide the bread out. we slice in half the long way, lay flat then slice like 3/8"-1/2" thick and butter and brown /toast in a pan like you would a muffin. friggin delicious!

You mean brown bread. Canned. We used to heat it up with hot dogs and beans on Saturday night. Yummy. Stop & Shop or Market Basket has it.
