I've had a ZOJIRUSHI bread making machine for about 25 yrs and use it here in LB all the time; in fact, it is in process AHORITA!
But, when it is humid, such as now, I have to take it into my bedroom and run the A/C for awhile, to get the air such that it rises properly and
doesn't totally cave in. Even then, deep into the summer, even with A/C, it still falls.
Also, another consideration is whether the electricity goes off during the cycle.......then just a bunch of wasted ingredients, as my only oven is a
Convection Microwave.
For ages we've used the Linaza Multigrano as a back-up, for sandwiches, when I don't get my own baked, or when I run out of bread flour; but for sure,
not only does it keep a long, long time inthe heat, the wrapping does melt and that yellow color gets all over everything!! I have to remember to
take it off, but usually don't remember......life CAN be muy dificil!!

Just give me a pone of good Mexican cornbread. You can have all that whole grain/mixed nut stuff you want. Once you try Mexican/Southern USA cornbread
you'll feed all that doughy stuff to the goats.

Dennis,
With my perennial tan(from teenage in SoCal, to now in Mulege) , I blend with the shadows and become invisible. Sorry, but the photos you were looking
for didn't turn out. I am incognito wherever I go.  I will say that I can get away with a lot without any incriminating evidence.

French ladies are probably a little desperate when it comes to certain things.

Bimbo Linaza really is almost as satisfying as Wheat Berry, a pleasant surprise. When we lived in La Paz in the '60s, the only Pan Bimbo was a clone
of Wonderbread, and it was really popular. Sandwiches made with it were served at practically every party we were invited to, and a proud Mexican
hostess almost always singled me out to say, "This is just like your American bread!" Had to smile and down it, while wanting to say, No,that's not MY
American bread, I'd rather go hungry.

Well, I guess that all the senses get engaged when you are having a delicious moment.

Maybe bad spellers were thinking "bred."

Not to get too far off the subject of bred... But I bought a bag of bimbo hot dog buns this morning cus a friend left me with a package of Ball Park
"all beef" hot dogs. So for breskfast/ lunch I grilled up a couple of dogs and really enjoyed just a simple dog with mustard, onions, dill relish
& catsup (sp). In fact I enjoyed them so much I just had 3 more and added some sharp chedder. So... here's the jest.... When did they but enough
buns in a bag to accommodate the numbers of dogs in a package? Oh yeh, I had some great potato salad my neighbor brought by too. If I wasn't so full
I'd do it again and finish off the dogs & buns.

I have to admit my error here. The Bimbo MULTIGRANO Linazo bread is not the bread I thought we were talking about. Previously, I had had a simple
Linazo bread from Bimbo that was NOT multigrano. It was the usual wheat bread with seeds on top that has basically the same texture as their white
bread.
A close inspection of a loaf at the Mega in HMO today reveals a bread very different than the one I had. I actually thought I saw wheat berries in
there!!! OMG!!!
I just didnt need a loaf of bread, though, so I will have to wait to give it the ultimate test.

We've noticed that some loaves labeled Multigrano have lots more granos than others bearing an identical label.
Inconsistancy, of course. But isn't that what makes life in Mexico an adventure?
