I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my bread crumbs turned out really dry and crumbly.

These bread crumbs were just okay. They weren't bad, but they weren't anything special either.

I was a bit disappointed with these bread crumbs. They didn't have much flavor, and they didn't hold their shape very well.

These bread crumbs are a bit more expensive than store-bought, but they're definitely worth the extra cost.

These bread crumbs are a great way to use up leftover bread. I always have a bag of them in my freezer, just in case.

I was really impressed with how well these bread crumbs held their shape. They didn't get soggy or mushy, even after being cooked.

I love the versatility of these bread crumbs. I've used them in meatballs, meatloaf, and even as a topping for mac and cheese. They always add a nice touch.

These fresh bread crumbs were a game-changer for my meatballs! They added a wonderful texture and flavor that store-bought crumbs just couldn't match. I'll definitely be making these again.
