A Shout-out to Squirrelly Bread

I want to give a shout-out to my local love, Squirrelly Bread. Thank you for existing, ‘o Squirrelly Bread. You make my mornings start out with a jolt of good energy that lasts long and throughout the day. You are organic, and made without flour; only the finest sprouted grains. You taste great with Udo’s Oil too, and a sprinkle of unrefined sea salt. And, you're baked just around the corner – in agricultural Abbotsford, B.C.!

There are days when I get so carried away with Squirrelly Bread that I will consume 3, 4, even 5 pieces, drizzled (or should I say, oozing) with flaxseed oil, Udo’s oil or some other yummy oil. But I never really regret it. Each piece is packed with protein and fibre and all-natural ingredients. In fact, there are very few ingredients in each loaf and all of them are identifiable – this is usually a good sign of nutritiousness in a processed food.

I must confess that any bread made by Silver Hills is good. The entire line used to be called “Squirrelly Bread”, until recently when they decided to update their look and feel. I like how each bread variety comes in a different coloured bag, with a different illustration on the bag and a slightly different theme. Props to Squirrelly for also being B.C. Certified Kosher, GMO-free and for using biodegradable bags.

My mom, a lover of healthy and simple foodstuffs, first introduced me to Squirrelly Bread. In my opinion, it’s far too delicious to add anything to it like jam, peanut butter, or marmalade. And there are so many varieties to choose from; I could live off of Silver Hills bread the rest of my life and feel perfectly complete.

If you are looking for Squirrelly Bread, but can’t seem to find it, you can use their online store locator - you can also take the opportunity to read their story and meet the people at Silver Hills - they all look vibrant and glowy – probably a result of eating their own yummy breads all their lives. There is also a call out on the website for people who want to participate in their focus group. You get free bread if you participate!

No, this blog is not an advertisement, and I am not hoping to earn some pocket cash off of this message. I just want to express my pure and undying love for a bread that I consider to be quite delicious, pure and undyingly unique.
