yea, and another annoying thing happened at work today. this is second time someone's asked me this too. this lady comes up and asks where the fresh garlic bread is. we do not have "fresh" garlic bread. at no point in time can any of the garlic bread we have be considered fresh (unless you're talking about the pull-apart or artisian garlic bread). to tell you the truth, we make all the garlic bread outta day-old french/italian/confused bread. so there. stop asking me for fresh garlic bread. THERE'S NO SUCH THING! hell, why would you be asking for fresh stuff at 7 o'clock at night anyway? the only stuff that is baked in the afternoon is the french/italian/confused bread. and that's the second batch of the day (they make it in the morning too).
what the hell does she mean by french/italian/confused bread, you ask? well, i'll tell you. we have this bread, it's our most popular stuff. when you type in the PLU and print out the label it reads "french bread", but the bags we put it in read "italian bread". to top it all off the boxes the bread comes are labeled "italian bread", but the sign on our display cart reads "french bread". o so many times have i had to explain to confused customers that it's all the same bread. you see, we have "original french bread" which is long and thin, similar to our "french baguette bread" and we have "french bread" which is packaged in "italian bread" bags and shipped in "italian bread" boxes. to tell you the truth, it's just plain white bread. why do we have to call it "french bread"? do they think that adding a foriegn adjective in front of "bread" makes it sound more exotic and special? the french don't even like us!!!
