So true! Australia is bread hell. As a German I cannot stand the white spongy stuff they're selling by the metric ton. We used to buy Helga's Schinkenbrot, but haven't seen it on the shelves (Woolworths or Coles) for months…
Coles' online store still lists it, but I haven't tried ordering it there.
We sometimes resort to buying the very expensive (but good) German breads from the Lüneburger bakery chain. Maybe I need to go back to making my own. I bought a pack of Laucke's sourdough rye mixture the other day, we'll see how that goes…
