Slicing bread with belly band
Every week I pick up a sourdough loaf and ask for it to be sliced at the deli counter. This week, the assistant at the counter refused, stating that they can’t cut loaves with a belly band on them.
Is this true? When I questioned this, they said this has always been policy. I can’t help but think they might be misinterpreting a “remove the belly band before slicing” rule or something. Are they correct, or just gaslighting me? 😂
