I bought the plain sourdough bread to snack on before going to a winery and it was so DRY and STALE. My sister and I took a couple of bites and threw it straight in the garbage. I wasted $7. A lot of their breads have food additives. Customer service wasn't that great either, the lady was stand-offish until you purchased something and once she started talking I rather she just shut up because she was kind of tactless.

The blueberry lemon cake contains not a single visible blueberry, IN THE MIDDLE OF MICHIGAN BLUEBERRY SEASON!It did have better than 100 processed food ingredients beginning with “cake mix”. Artisans buy cake mix and sell at art festivals? The only thing blue was the drizzle of blue #1 food coloring on the top. If you’re keeping score, it also contains yellow #5&6 and red #40.The Asiago bread was dry and contained not a single visible spot of cheese or cheese flavor.The festival organizers should do some prudent research before allowing this scam into such an event.

I ordered the asiago artichoke bread, but there wasn't a hint of either ingredient in it. Instead, it was overly sweet and just unpleasant. The chocolate chip banana bread was disappointing too—it contained only one chocolate chip in the whole loaf! I got this at an art festival, and after reading the reviews, it seems they prefer to set up in places where no one is familiar with them. This was some of the worst bread I've ever tasted, and I'm convinced they're misrepresenting their offerings. Additionally, the ladies running the stand were quite unfriendly.

Although the person selling them was very friendly and spoke highly of The Great Bread Company, I feel it was a waste of money.
