Is there such thing as canned bread?

Question

Just wondering! :-)

Answer 1

Yes. Besides the brown bread already mentioned bread was supplied to the US military in cans for field rations. Don't know if it still is or not. But I hope not, I have had that when I was a kid and Dad was a Marine. Nasty, horrible stuff. I don't want our soldiers subjected to that.

Answer 2

Boston brown bread is typically sold in cans. It is a sweet bread made with molasses. It was common among the whaling culture in New England in the 1800's. Since the show SpongeBob uses a lot of New England seafaring imagery, I wouldn't be surprised if they meant Boston brown bread.

Answer 3

The only canned bread that I know of is brown bread.

Answer 4

There is the kind you get at the refrigerator section of the supermarket that comes in a can that you pop open and then bake- but I don't know if that's what you mean!
