I read an article stating that the color of the twist tie on bread can tell you how fresh it is.


Blue is Monday
Green is Tuesday
Red is Thursday
White is Friday
Yellow or Tan is Saturday

So, if you are buying bread on Friday,do not pick up the tan or yellow~It's already a week old.

I knew they went by the twist tie color for freshness, but never really knew exactly which days were what colors, I just always look for a different color in the back.
