Landscape with bread
I came upon this pile of stale bread near one of the barns that's still used to house animals. Seems they incorporate it into the feed, which I find a rather good idea as the bread goes unconsumed by people in any event.

Neither man nor animals can live by bread alone, I guess. Happy Sunday to you!!
Interesting photo. I see people collecting stale baguettes from the bakeries. I presume they are also used to feed farm animals.
Great looking bread. Lucky animals!
(I haven't -yet- featured Boston Cream Pies, but this one I found on Flicker looks good, doesn't it?)
I can well remember when some years after the war - 1945-ONWARDS - IT WAS NORMAL FOR pig farmers to come round and collect waste scraps of food (not much was wasted then!!)for feeding to pigs as "pig swill". I don't know what they do these days...seems in Switzerland it's still done.
At first I was going to say it looks good. Then I read your post about it being stale. It goods that it doesn't go to waste.
My first visit and I just wanted to say hello and let you enjoyed looking through both your blogs this evening, I will be back for more.
Interesting. And the photo is a fooler too as I thought it was fresh bread.
It is the unsold bread of the baker; they seem intact
