... wholemeals breads can be. The texture is not too rough either which in my opinion all goes towards making it the wholemeal bread of choice.
It lasts really well too. I can buy a loaf at the beginning of the week and can still get soft sandwiches out of it by Friday. It's never gone mouldy on me either which is great as it says it contains no artificial flavourings or preservatives. I often freeze a loaf too and find that it thaws well and you can't tell it's been frozen.

This is my sliced bread of choice. Hovis wholemeal bread is soft but not cloying.

I have never really liked white bread, and have always eaten brown or wholemeal bread since I was a child. I like my bread to be good quality, and I have tried many a bread over the years, but I keep on coming back to Hovis Wholemeal.

It is even the perfect size for a random slice of bread and butter now and then. The texture of this bread is lovely. Nice and soft, but without being doughy or tough, and even the crusty ends are soft enough for a sandwich. I have never had any problems spreading anything on this bread, no tears or clumps. ...

Hovis began in 1886 when a miller - Richard 'Stoney' Smith changed the way flour was milled. He believed that wheatgerm was good for people and found a way to separate the germ from the flour, lightly cook it then add it back to the flour without it losing any nutrients. He then teamed up with the owner of a large milling business (Thomas Fitton). They registered 'Smiths Patent Process Germ Flour' in 1887. In 1890 they held a competition for a new name, the winner got £25 and the name 'Hovis' was found. My favourite bread is thick white warburtons but I decided we need to be a bit more healthier so when I spotted Hovis wholemeal on offer 2 for £2 I ... Read the complete review
