Yes, I use it. I'm not overly convinced by the coloured/flavoured versions, but it stays on the hook very well.

I've used if on and off for while now (but never tried the flavoured versions) but it catches fish, can also be hair rigged to a small band and cast to a distance without coming off.

Yep, for long range work, I band it, either with the band on a hair or on the shank of the hook.

Make sure it's not stale or you may have to cut off a slice with fishing line, or Sensor......................

I was using it a lot last season floating on top for summer carp it stay on the hook well BUT don’t make it to soggy did find it a bit of a ****** to cut with line as they tell you to do the line would break or the bread would crack. I found that it cut better without cracking the bread with a half of hacksaw blade.
I have also tried (CHAILLOU 1 BREAD) that works well

Not used the stuff myself but a mate has and he has managed to keep it attached in some reasonably strong Trent flows.
It didn't set his world alight but did offer him a way into bread fishing which he refuses point blank to do with conventional flake and crust where there's a flow.

Not used it myself but based on last Wednesday's experience I reckon that's what the service station at Dorking makes its sandwiches from. ! You could roof a shed with the ham too !

How can you tell if its stale?

Part of an ongoing banterfest.
Magic bread won't go stale so long as it's kept dry. Once you've soaked it, it will moulder in time, but you can freeze any leftovers, and get a second (at least) session out of a slice.

Add a drop of flavoured liquid Scopex, betaine, molasses, CSL to the hooked bread I use a syringe without the needle to add 1 drop of whatever flavour I fancy on the day the bread soaks it in like a sponge and makes a good attractor. Roll some small 8mm size balls of the bread and put a drop of flavoured liquid on them and use as free offerings

Oh ye of little faith! I will report back in due course. I reckon Melba toast would be similar and if the fish didn't like it you could serve it with some nice comté , fois gras or pâte !
