Ranking Store-Bought Garlic Bread From Worst To Best
BY SARA KLIMEK
17. Stop & Shop
This bakery offers a garlic loaf encased in an aluminum sleeve topped with garlic butter but lacks instructions on how to cook it.
The crust is pleasant, but the inside is filled with an excessive amount of nearly rancid margarine, resulting in a mushy, unpleasant texture.
16. Pepperidge Farm
Pepperidge Farm has a 10-ounce frozen garlic bread loaf that bakes in eight to nine minutes at 400 F, with instructions to pry open the two halves for toasting.
Despite its soft bite and decent margarine, the loaf lacks garlic and herb flavors, making it more suitable as "buttered bread."
15. Bridgford
The garlic and parmesan-coated monkey bread has unclear instructions. While the top gets toasty, the underside is mushy, and it doesn't taste like garlic bread.
14. New York Garlic Knots
Their garlic knots lack garlic flavor, and the cheap bread disintegrates easily in your mouth. It leaves you craving something salty on top.
13. New York Texas Toast
The toast combines dried parsley and garlic, but the bread is cheap, the margarine is very oily, and there isn't any "garlic" flavor (or any flavor).
