(Closed) Rudi's Organic Bakery Review and Giveaway Ends 3/3


Rudi's Organic Bakery generously sent me two loaves of their delicious breads to review. I found both loaves to be very moist, soft and full of texture and quality. The aroma is sweet, the flavor is wonderful, and both the Honey Sweet Whole Wheat and 14 Grain breads are great for lunch sandwiches, toast, and tasty grilled cheese.


For 34 years, Rudi's has been making baking their breads in small batches. They focus on bringing you whole ingredients, and bread that is healthy and delicious for you and your family. A few "Rudi-isms" really sum up what this great company is all about!

My favorite "Rudi-ism" of Rudi's Organic Bakery is the following...

Because the best stuff in life is free. Free of artificial chemicals, preservatives, and dangerous pesticides.

Just straight natural and organic ingredients that certainly make me happy!


I regularly enjoy toast with jam in the morning, so I figured this was a great way to test out "organic" bread and to compare it to the non-organic wheat or whole grain bread we usually buy. It turned out to be delicious! For some reason I expected the opposite. I mean, don't all the crazy ingredients that you can't pronounce make non-organic breads taste better than organic, REAL bread? (major sarcasm!) I already know it's better for my family, I was just NOT expecting it to taste better than "regular" bread too! Needless to say, I was surprised with my morning toast, and went back for a second piece. :)

The Verdict! Considering the fact that we buy organic produce, meat and organic milk for Buddy, it's only natural that we go with organic bread too. Rudi's Organic Bakery has a great selection of chemical, preservative, and pesticide free breads that make me smile. :)

Buy it!
Rudi's Organic Bakery has a large selection of breads, buns, rolls, tortillas, wraps, bagels, and english muffins. Many of these can be purchased at local retailers near you.

 Win it!
 Rudi's Organic Bakery has generously agreed to send one The Reynolds Mom reader 2 loaves of their organic bread (bread varieties to be chosen by sponsor)!
