They have some items that I will never buy anywhere else. I have been spoiled by their three seed sourdough bread and won't buy bread anywhere else, and it's only $3.99. It is so good. Trouble is, sometimes their products disappear and never come back. My sister makes her own sourdough bread, which consists of just flour and water. It's delicious, but it seems to be a big effort.
