Soreen Fruity Malt Loaf 150g (3 Pack)

I grew up on malt loaf... so did my children. Now I'm introducing another generation to the delightful squishy, fruity loaf. The sell by dates are good, so no need to eat in a hurry. Great value for the money.

Today (15/04/2021) I opened the second of three loaves that I purchased. All three had the same sell by date 11/2022. I always make an effort to closely look at the packaging to ensure that it's still sealed and all appeared to be good prior to opening. As you can see from the photo the loaf was moldy. The first loaf consumed several weeks ago had been perfect, as was the third one opened after discovering the bad loaf (I didn't eat all of it, just had 2 slices, but I could easily scoff the lot in one sitting). I do not have a problem paying the high price for these loafs, as they are normally always of the highest quality and delicious. But I do have a problem with paying top dollar and throwing them out. Not acceptable.

Love malt loaf which is not easy to find in the USA, I am from the UK. It came well packaged, not squashed, which it has a tendency to do. I like the fact that the expiration date in not for another 9 months which means I don't have to eat all 3 of them quickly.

Wow, good luck eating JUST a slice. Had this when in England so bought it over in States, fanbloodytastic.

A. Touch of home with this malt loaf love it will order more very very tasty just like home..

Tasty, and reasonably priced.. It lost points as this is the third time of ordering from this company and each time the items are so poorly packed they arrive flattened. So you don't get a loaf as pictured, you get a flat bread and no amount of stretching returns it to it's "normal" shape. Takes the enjoyment out of it.

Although the loaves were WELL before the expiration date they were all covered in mold! Never seen that before. Well, the birds got a good feed!

Delivery and packaging were good, and they taste great. But note that each loaf had a 'Best Before' sticker '03-14-22' - many months away - but don't believe it - in the UK they have a shelf life of only a couple of weeks - distributors in the US keep it frozen, and I'm sure this date is to help them manage their freezer stock. So eat within a few days, or re-freeze (it freezes well). Also they are listed as 150g per loaf, but are actually 190g. You can see both the date and the weight in the photo.
