Seedy as HELL.
As you may have guessed, my wife is German. And as a German, she has a powerful taste for hearty bread — tough, dark and heavy — with as many seeds crammed into it as humanly possible. She calls it her, “Seedy Bread,” and during the summer of 2011, she discovered a whole new brand: Dave’s Killer Bread. She loves all of Dave’s Killer Breads, including Good Seed, Powerseed and Good Seed Spelt, but her absolute favorite is their seed-covered mini-baguette* (depicted). While at a Fred Meyer supermarket in Northeast Portland, I pointed to one of these baguettes and asked what she thought it was called, to which she replied…
THE WIFE: “It is a peace stick.”

Not only is your wife German, she’s also apparently a bird. ;)
Ja, ja the Germans and their bread! I haven’t found good bread in my area yet so I just checked Dave’s website and found a store nearby that carries their Bread. I will check it out! Hope to find the Peace Stick :)
…hilarious
Nice!! Please come back and let us know how you like it!
All hail the “German peace stick”! Lol. Loved it.
Thank you, Sweetmother! Have a wonderful day!
Somebody should hit Bashar al Assad over the head with a peace stick…
That should be the world’s peace organization’s logo.
Totally. :)
Whole grain rye … bread that is, not “Schnapps” :) with “Thueringer Mett” :) on it … yummy, I think I’ll have some rightaway … Thanks, you made my day … your blog is so refreshingly funny. Love, cat.
Thank you Cat! We love it when you stop by!
OMG I didn’t find exactly the same but seedstick but something else.
Dave’s Killer Bread – Sin Dawg

I ate that d*** all at once … my stomach hurts from that sweet overkill …. but it was sooo good. :)
Einfach ‘schweinemäßig lecker’ Danke für den Tipp. Will go back there and get some more :)
Schön! We haven’t tried the Sin Dawg yet, but now we clearly must. :)
Which will you try next?
Well, I’m not sure. The variety was not really big. The store carried only a hand full of the sticks but a couple of different loafs of bread. That is good too.
The cinnamon sticks really took me by surprise. I love cinnamon rolls and have a hard time to stay away from it. The cinnamon sticks are a welcome healthy alternative. :)
your wife is awesome. and i use to live right by that Fred Meyer~ i miss that area. !
Thank you! Where did you live exactly?
right off of Glisan… near 28th. So not like, right beside Fred Meyer, (we shopped there). You know Red Flag? We went there all the time- also, Dave himself is killer, killer cool, super nice! everyone buy his bread. !!
I love seedy bread as well. One time I bought spelt, which is looks like a big brown brick and weighs about the same. It was incredibly dense and the slightly tangy flavor was not bad. Another win for German bread.
My grandmother was German; your work evokes some wonderful memories…
Right on! We love it when that happens! :)
The peace stick is delicious, I speak from experience.
