Somethings not quite right
I bought 2 loaves and they had 5 days until use by date but when opened they tasted stale and the bread felt tougher in texture so not sure what's happened but not the nice soft fresh bread we are used too. Please don't go the same way that awful Kingsmill went, it ruined their reputation and many shops stopped stocking the 800g white sliced as the bread was well below consumer standard.
Not that fresh. A bit tough until a few slices in.
Not that fresh. A bit tough until a few slices in. Sticky dry texture. Same goes for the last few slices. Fine for toast though.

I noticed a reviewer mention it developing a sweet taste. I bought a loaf this morning and made a sandwich for my lunch. It honestly tasted and even felt like I was eating sponge cake. Very off putting. Might have to go back to the King
My 'go to' loaf
If I'm having sliced white bread then this is the only loaf I'll buy ... Lovely big thick slices & keeps fresh for several days Makes wonderful chip or fish finger sammos lol! I usually keep one in the freezer for toasting too Scrummy with a generous spread of butter... It's perfect from frozen ... Tried a couple of other brands like Kingsmill but their 'thick' sliced is like a 'medium' sliced Hovis loaf & smaller slices... I also liked the 'extra thick' for toast but haven't been able to get that for a while ...

I got this bread delivered as I was fed up with throwing bread away and it had 4+ days on the page. It came on the 10th, best before the 13th! Thanks Tesco, more bird food!
ok...but says its thick, but it isn't Grrrrr
very disappointed, much proffered the EXtra Thick Hovis, why do you not stock it anymore? Have been ordering the Extra Thick for years now, so very very disappointed.
Wont buy anything else. Lasts a week too

If you use your loaf you won't lose your loaf.
A fantastic product !!! Initially I keep it in the fridge before I need to use it. Once opened I keep it on the worktop 'spiral-closing' and turning it upside down to ensure closure after each use. This way, a loaf can last me up to a fortnight and the last slice will still be as fresh as the first. Not a crumb of wastage - brilliant.
Poor
Does not keep well. Develops strange sweet taste after a couple of days.
Nice but doesn’t stay fresh long
Love hovis bread, however, I’ve stopped buying it now as it goes mouldy very quickly, and often before the best before date, not sure why this is as I don’t get this with other brands that I buy, all stored the same way, it’s a shame as it’s nice bread when eaten on the day.
