Taste Test: Tampa Bay Sourdough Bread

If I was stranded on a desert island and offered only one food item, I would likely pick sourdough bread. I love a hot, crusty slice slathered in salty butter.

Our judges love a good sourdough loaf as well.

Lately, we have been seeing sourdough loaves on the bread shelves of local grocery stores instead of only in the bakery aisle. We wanted to know if those prepackaged loaves could stand up to our beloved freshly baked offerings. We found a couple that would work for a sandwich or as part of a casual dinner.
