What You Should Know

Schmidt Old Tyme Bread, Honey Wheat (20 oz) is a familiar, packaged sliced loaf you’d find on the supermarket bread aisle among other sandwich loaves and whole wheat offerings. It sits on the middle or lower shelves near family-size breads, honey or enriched wheat varieties, often close to lunch meats and deli spreads for grab-and-go sandwich building. The product reads like a hometown brand story — Schmidt Baking Company emphasizes a long family-owned history and a straightforward, value-oriented offering aimed at practical shoppers and multigenerational households who value tradition. Label copy leans on natural-sounding claims (“No artificial preservatives, colors or flavors,” “No high fructose corn syrup”) and references to whole grains and USDA dietary guidance, which create a wholesome health halo despite the product being a conventional commercial bread. There is no organic certification; ingredients include enriched flour, whole wheat flour and additives such as emulsifiers, enzymes and dough conditioners. In plain processing terms, this is an industrially made, sliced sandwich bread formulated for consistent texture and shelf stability. Sensory-wise the loaf delivers a soft, fine crumb with a mild honey sweetness, light chew from wheat bran, a thin golden crust and even pre-sliced pieces in a plastic bag and twist tie — designed for quick toast, school lunches, peanut-butter-and-jelly sandwiches, or everyday toast rituals. It’s positioned as an affordable, reliable staple for households that want a traditional, slightly sweet whole-wheat-style bread with predictable performance.
