I ordered a "baguette" from Panera for $2.89, and this is what I got:

This isn't a baguette; it's a piece of bread! Un morceau de pain!!!
Almost $3 for this chunk of fugazi bread. LOL.
It looks yummy, though. Few things better than bread and butter. But yah, it shouldn't cost more than a bagel.
shareAgreed I love bread, maybe a little too much. It was pretty good, but I really was expecting the "whole" baguette lol.
Oh well back to whole foods. That's the only place around here I've been able to find decent bread.

That's the CEO of Panera laughing all the way to the bank
And great pizza by the slice too!
shareWhole Foods? I haven't tried their pizza yet, but maybe I'll give it a shot. I don't eat pizza often, but I always appreciate a good slice when I have it.
shareA Panera just opened up not far from me. Brand new store construction. I have to check it out.
shareI was disappointed; I was hoping for a more European-folksy style bread bakery, or even an east-coast style Italian/French/Portuguese bakery. They're what I miss most about back east. Instead, it has more in common with Starbucks, which isn't necessarily bad, just more of the same. The bread is good though, just very overpriced.
shareGot it. I will adjust my expectations accordingly :)
shareBargain! Lol.
shareThat looks like the free piece that comes with some menu items. Sometimes they make you pick up bakery stuff like a full loaf of bread at a different counter.
share$2.89!!!! Were the workers able to keep a straight face when they gave that crumb to you?
