- Going through the supermarket aisles, you may have noticed Dave's Killer Bread and wondered how it got its name. Founder Dave Dahl actually spent 15 years in prison.
Dahl's father had his own bakery, NatureBake, in the 1980s, specializing in handmade organic and sprouted grain loaves. Dahl says he wasn't interested in the family business in his teens. He dropped out of high school, started taking drugs, and turned to a life of petty crime, according to the Deseret News. He spent the next 15 years serving out sentences for various offenses, and worked at the family bakery between stints.
In the early 2000's, Dahl rejoined his brother Glenn at the bakery for good. He developed a cornmeal-encrusted bread that he took to Portland-area farmers markets and named "Dave's Killer Bread." Here's the full story of why he went to jail, and how his company is giving back.

Have you tried Dave's Killer Bread? How did you like it?
absolutely wonderful delicious...wow...
It is amazing as toast, esp. Good Seed. Great way to start your day!
Too sweet
It's the only loaf I purchase because of it's honest high quality ingredients and great taste.
I liked it.
I think his brother deserves at least half the credit for keeping the bakery going while Dave made his mistakes and served time. I think Dave's brother is probably the stable rock that the company was built on.
Yep.

That is a good point. Perhaps his brother realizes that it's good marketing to have Dave out front. I'm not taking anything away from either of their accomplishments. I love his Bagels!
Dave helps convicts better than the justice system.
That because the justice system is neither meant to help nor provide justice more often then not. In some states a dime bag can get you more time then killing someone with various BS setups to increase time served.
The *Capitalists' Just-Us System* is fine with incarcerating the innocent along with the guilty. Each inmate makes money for the private prison industry paid for with your tax dollars, and they use them as a slave labor pool to make garments for the fast food industry. Win-Lose-Win-Lose! And win-lose again if you eat the food.
Not that I disagree overall but Dave did seem to have a life changing experience with the drafting classes in prison. He said he used those skills to build the company.
@->Galiley Kwong- he helps convicts better than American Christian churches!
The justice system works as long as the people in it make decisions based on what's best for both society and the accused. A lot of the time, these decisions are politically motivated and done in order to "win."
Let's all give some claps for Glen for keeping it straight and narrow so his brother had a life to come back too
Can I get an AMEN?!
@@spillinthebeans4354 Amen!!
AMEN and AMEN!!!
Amen💒⛪⛪⛪🌈🌾🌾🌾🌾🌾🌾🌾🌾🌾🌾🌾🌾🐑🐑🐑🐏🐏
👏👏👏👏👏
Dave is the marketing strategy, his brother is the diligence behind the scenes, without his brother the bakery would’ve closed during Dave’s 15 years of troubles
And without Dave the business wouldn't be this successful
Yea baby
It takes two hands to clap
@@MonochromaticBlues i can with no hands
Pretty low thing to try to diminish a mans accomplishment to being a brand mascot even after he sold his company for over $200 million and then set out to help others when he could have just sat around with no worries.
My dad did that back in the 70s & 80s. His funeral was full of men my dad helped get back into society by giving them a second chance. He was a good man.
Thank goodness for people like your dad and Dave. The US has regressed in terms of how prison was based reforming inmates so they could reintegrate back into society. Now it's all about punishment and society throwing up so many roadblocks where they can't get a job, can't find a place to live, etc...and blame on them for not trying hard enough. All because of prejudices and being afraid of getting sued if something happens and they blame it on them hiring an ex-con.
This is amazing!!
@@VideoCesar07 i know if they just let them out they can't get back in their feet again! Just like my Grandmother on my dad's family she took my brother out of school when he was young. To work on her farm. But he ended up hanging out with motorcycle gangs I know he can't read and write he can't even sign his name. He has been in Jail more then out? He might be there now? He is on disability! And age 71 if my grandmother would have left him in school he may have turned out different? He could have made a good living! 💰 i always wondered about that? I don't know why my dad wasn't watching him instead of my grandmother? Maybe bc he was in the service & my brother his mother is not my mother! He is my half brother! But that's life. See decisions we make today make the difference in the future!
We need more good men like this ❤️
Bless your father. He must've been a man of understanding and commitment. Well done.
I've never seen anyone look so different in every mugshot.
Like a true sociopath
I do. You can see my decline in the photos.

@@carynmartin6053 what a idiotic statement you made
@@carynmartin6053 go take your meds, Karen! Before I notify your caretaker!
I met Dave in Seattle at PCC natural markets when I was an employee there in the early mid 2000s. He was in the bread aisle merchandising his product in our store. I was already a fan of his bread and when I got a closer look at him I said " You're Dave!" He looked just like the drawing on the package. He was incredibly humble , sweet, and real. He took time out of his day to talk to me, and I could tell with his positive attitude, humility, and amazing product , he was going to go far. I am very happy to see he has found success and helps others to overcome thier past and do the same.
Yeah but it's a shame he sold the company and then corporate greed took over and it started to get expensive and then ...
... well now his bread ... a lot of it smaller than ever before and yet even pricier and it cannot all be blamed on supply chain problems because it has been proven that most corporations doubled their profits in the past year or two .
And now with the Ukraine which is the Bread Basket to the world and supplying more wheat than anybody to the planet ...
... and guess what , last month it was in the news that's something like 200 million tons of wheat was being held captive by Putin in a cargo ship in the Ukraine .
And so watch how crazy expensive everything made with wheat will get and that includes a lot of the beer out there ... not just bread or pizza dough .
...... And then you went home and noticed that he had Pickpocketed your wallet. 🤭😜🫡
Wow, I didn’t know this about the company, bread, or guy. I’m going to buy me some Dave’s killer bread, right now!!
This is such a wonderful thing. I had a squeaky clean record, and a simple mistake got me in trouble with the local law in the late 40's. Even though I'm well educated and very intelligent, I couldn't get a job in my small town for over 3 years. A nonprofit finally took pity on me, and it's the best job I've ever had! I thank God for people like this.
You got in trouble in the 40s? You must be over 100 now!
Dave Dahl's latest project is a line of breakfast foods called:
*Dave's Cereal Killers*
I see what you did there lol
😉
Lol haha clever
You should be a writer!! Great
Clever reply indeed
Imagine going down the bread isle and you see the dude who robbed your house, all over the packages
😄😁😆🤣👀
That’s called life shouldn’t be so shocked after all crazy shit you’ve seen on earth
LOOOOOOOOOOOOOL
I'm sure 21 savage would know that feeling.
The person who robbed my house got his shit together. I'm happy for him, doesn't mean I want to see him.
"He began using drugs, dropped out of highschool, and baked his neighbors into a loaf of bread."
Haha
Coincidentally bought my first loaf of Dave’s bread just yesterday, now that I know the story I’ll gladly be buying this regularly and feel good about it
Dave's killer bread is the best bread in the aisle. Dave is an inspiration, people can change for better if they want to. Dave proved that. 🍞👍👏
If you live in the northeast the best bread in the bread aisle is hands down made by the Heidelberg bread company, especially their Jewish rye, if you like rye bread you have to have it
@Making America Great Again - TRUMP'S DUMPED! and the My pillow guy... he did well too
I've never heard of Daves killer bread. Im in Texas.
@@Starboy-mp2ci they sell it at Costco in California..and the regular msrket
@@MyChannel-nz1tz Lol I've been to California.
I buy this bread and honestly had no idea... I guess I never read the package.
Same here, I love the bread, but never read the story in the package; it’s actually the only bread I eat besides Thoma’s bagels (sometimes when my supermarket doesn’t have Dave’s bagels)! Now that I know the story it makes the eating the bread even better.
Yep! Same here. The bread is actually flavorful, unlike most brands in the stores.
Me too. I buy it every time and had no clue. I just read the ingredients and nutritional info.
I bought it because of the story. I keep buying it cos the bread is really good 😋
Is it because you can't read
Been eating this for years, it’s a favorite. Had no idea the story. Bless this man. My dads in wasco, this hits home.
So sorry, hon. Must be hard. 😢
Dave’s sprouted whole grain bread is such a healthy option compared to other things on the shelf. Really grateful this company exists and to think it was created by an ex criminal. Anyone is destined for greatness. We also can’t denounce the hard work that the brother put in so Dave could have a place to come back to.
Dave’s bread is absolutely wonderful. My favorite is Good Seed. But all are so delicious. Best supermarket bread out there. I never heard of Dave’s background - he has done an amazing job helping ex prisoners be successful.
My favorite was good seeing too, until flowers bought the company & changed the integrity of the bread . .
My favorite is the rye bread, that is perfection.
I believe each State should pass a law requiring businesses, if possible, to insure that at least 10% percent of their employees be ex-cons.
People should be given a chance to succeed. Where I work there are many ex-cons and they are hard working dependable people that appreciate
having the opportunity to build a stable future for themselves.
@@donmiller2908 regrettably most corporations do have real cons working for them except they never went to jail and I'm talking about a lot of the scummy CEOs are the real criminals
@@donmiller2908 they do ! You have to know the ex con ! You may get Ripped off too !
He literally confirms and demonstrates the age old question....am I my brother’s keeper? Awesome story✊🏽
Dave looks wildly different but equally cool in each mugshot.
Make no mistake though, a mug shot is nothing good
The whole wheat is my favorite bread and I had no idea he was a convict and helps so many people being a convict myself who turned it around this is inspiring and heart warming.
Low life
@@dabbking Well he used to be, but now he's done more good for others than you or me
Bread is sold in all super markets now...
@@dabbking stfu lowlife
@@AB-pr4uc How’s That ?
Fun fact: Dave owns more African art than any other private owner in the world. He owns a company called Discover African Art in Eagle Creek. It's massive. If you ever get the chance to talk with Dave, he's got some pretty crazy stories. Really nice guy. Terrifying, but a real nice guy.
Why was the "African art", part necessary?
I see his truck all of the time... now with that African part, I will stick to white bread.... thanks for the information... no Dave bread for this white guy
Cultural appropriation
@@ScoobieDoobie197474 please tell me you're joking. It is really hard to tell these days.
@@FlaMan991 ....Are you Racist is why you said white bread only, & you found out about the African art?
This is why prison is supposed to be a rehabilitation. I've never understood why society continues to punish people after they've done their time
Oh I don't know, maybe because they caused pain to others that can't be fixed with a few years of prison.
Because the US is backwards, twisted, and racist. Look at other first world countries and how they handle the prison system. They make us look like a bunch of neanderthals.
@@ccc-fd3ls Shunning them and denying them employment forever doesn't fix anything either, though. If anything, it encourages people to go back to a life of crime, which results in even more people getting hurt.
@@JellybeanPinkninja racist? Every country has racism. You can't compare the US with other countries because it's way more diverse & if we are honest statistics do not lie.
@@MrL1193 while I do i agree with you to a certain extent, the reason why many don't give second chances anymore is because it hasn't worked in the past. Most people are too broken to be fixed.
Oh wow this made me cry. I know that there is hope for my uncle today. This is so powerful that he followed in his dad's footsteps and is now a father figure to men of all types
It's refreshing to know that his bread isn't the only good thing about him.
3rd to last mug shot of Dave looks exactly like Dr. Shepard from Greys Anatomy. The man got supermodel genes and he spending his time getting glam shots at the penitentiary instead of the studio lmao
Ok? I knew I wasn’t the only person that thought Dave should have been a model - he fine, fine!
He should have done more time for the mullet look in pic #4 and whomever gave him the “prepped for neurosurgery” cut in pic #2 has hopefully changed careers. 😊
@28th_St_Air I was wondering, did he get arrested mid head shaving? 😂 "sorry bud, we're gonna have to stop you there. Drop the clippers and put your hands behind your back"
Did i go out and buy some of Dave's bread? "Yes I did"
As an old mentor told me
Everything has to have a gimmick, unbreakable combs, amazing ginzu🔪 etc. Only this one's real with a catchy namebrand. Best of luck 🍞
The very term "Industrial Incarceration System" tells you all you need to know.
exactly
@Bravo Halo how right you are. And I’m not saying that prisons don’t serve a purpose but, at the very least, the prison system in this country needs a major & significant overhaul. The first thing that needs to change? The whole for-profit system the majority of prisons run on today. It being a for-profit system is such a conflict of interest, it blows my mind that it’s allowed and that people aren’t more up in arms about it. That for-profit prisons have certain quotas, for states to keep them occupied to a certain point is outrageous. That’s why people get thrown in prison for petty crimes, for a first crime, for almost nothing because they need to fill those beds. And that’s why certain prisons hand out infractions for the tiniest misstep, to keep you in there. I’m surprised more people aren’t angered by this.
@@sarahwatterson5706 sounds like you need some " hard " time in prison.
@@sarahwatterson5706 A system where the prison has a vested interest in encouraging recidivism.
@@sarahwatterson5706 That is complete bullshit. Sounds like some libtard fake news story
Dave is a visionary. He helps so many people, not to mention, makes healthy and delicious bread. He does it all in his own quiet way. He isn't bragging about being a rehab, but he is doing that better than a halfway house or parole officer. I am not sure what he did to wind up in prison, but I buy the bread because I like it.
Well said
There's a video about it and it says he did drugs, a lot of petty crime , thieves ... robberies .
Much respect all it takes is a mustard seed of information to turn a person around.
I didn't even know there was a story on the back of the bread. His bread is awesome. Good for him. Great hiring convicts. Employment plays a big factor in cons keeping out of jail. Many of them work harder than non cons! Awesome story, awesome company, great product. I will continue to support them.
I’m glad he turned his life around.
Why?
@@sweetsongstress7398 Why? Because it's better than being another criminal?
A B are you asking me?

We need more of Dave's energy in the world!
I will give you some energy baby
@@masterofpuppets5072 that’s what he was afraid of !
So proud of your success and helping those who need the support from past mistakes! Thank you!
Yay! This is the story I needed today. Thanks so much!
I mean it’s called “killer bread” I just assumed he was a murderer
If you ever tried his bread, you would know that “killer” meant “great” not that Dave was necessarily murderer himself. BTW, I never thought he was. I thought it was fantastic that he was employing those who had been incarcerated. He and his family are fantastic. I wish more companies were like them.
"killer" is a slang term for "excellent".
@Deify Samurai It's a double entendre. You are supposed to read both meanings because that's the joke. Killer means "great" and it is a type of criminal. That's the point.
came here looking for this... initially to write it but realized right away someone would have written it already
@@paula889 sad that this has to be explained ... oh to have the good ol days back... what id give
Sometimes you need to make a difference in someone life, and gave them a helping hand, to have a better understanding of things and life.
I love the bread and how the company pushes for the fact that ones past doesn’t define ones future potential. Respect to those actively throwing away the seeds of their own destruction.
Short and sweet! Great video!
Wow!
What a testament to a great idea and a person who overcame their background, became successful and is helping others to do the same.
You go Dave.
The fact is, Dave Dahl represents all of those who really do embrace rehabilitation. They exist, but he also isn't going to pretend there aren't those who never will. The poetic idea he took a drafting class that made that much impact proves education does help, and that there is truth to the idea that lack of education and criminal behavior are linked with some.
Id say its more accurate to say that he represents those who are ABLE to embrace it. Many people who come out of prison don't have anywhere to turn, hence why he hires felons, to give them the same opportunity he got. While he did do the work to get to where he is, he did also have luck on his side by having the bread business and his family to turn to so he had a platform many do not have.
@@anonymouscoward2491 , well, a bad joke isn't at all a bad sign. It isn't like he told someone years after he did it "What does it matter now?"
My mom exclusively buys this brand of bread. I will now try to do the same. Rock on, Dave!
I didn’t know this!!! going to support this brand more now :’)))
Always love to hear a good comeback story... good for him!
Very cool story and hope they keep up the great work. As someone with a checkered past it’s nice to see some companies give people another chance
This put a smile on my face. I'm an even bigger fan of Dave's bread now. People deserve second chances.
I love this so much. Its good to see people like me getting much needed help! Its good anyone at all is getting help. Bless this company for essentially saving lives.
i literally was in the store today had never heard his story but always saw the bread on the aisle i stared at the bread wondering to buy it i'm getting a lot more serious about what i'm really putting in my body the junk thats in most foods, for 2 weeks ive been thinking of what changes i'm trying to get my focus on better quality food being more intentional .I've just found my new bread and i will share his story and what a awesome mission.
Regrettably he sold the company and the ones who took over were greedier and now the price is really high and the bread has gotten smaller and skinnier .
Pretty soon I'm just going to go back to baking my own bread like I used to do it's just not worth paying those prices when the truth is a lot of the corporations are lying about the supply chain problems when the truth is most corporations doubled their profits in the past year or two
This is the best bread there is! I eat it exclusively. Love all the varieties and sizes! Wish he would make a 'killer' gluten free bread too!
Love, love, love his bread! I remember the first time I picked up a loaf and read his story. It was the reason I bought the bread!
This is such an amazing story.
Dave's killer bread is the best bread on the market
I love it! Good job Dave! thank you!
I didn't know this story. I've loved Dave's bread from the first time I bought it. My fav is the thin sliced super seed. Even my picky assed chef brother loves it! Learning the story, I love it even more!
Dave's killer bagels at Walmart is the only bagel I eat and it's amazing. Thanks Dave. Keep up the great work.
What an awesome guy! Dave doing more to improve the world and reform people than the justice system. Would love to see many more businesses follow this story line.
*I love the bread*
Dave himself is inspirational!
I did not know the story behind the brand. It makes me feel even better about buying this brand. Look at the ingredients. It is probably the healthiest choice on the store shelf, and it is delicious.
Damn good job bro, and story. Sitting here eating the “Raisin the Roof” one now. Very good with Bonne Maman Strawberry Preserves.
This is a great story of rehabilitation via daddy’s money and business. Still good stuff from Dave and helping to rehabilitate ex cons that definitely have a hard time finding an honest job. Cheers Dave. 🤙🏼
Dave's Killer Bread is...KILLER! Good for Dave. Never read the back of the bag.
It truly is a killer. Seeds and whole grains destroy our intestines over time. This bread kicks ass tho.... I like it...
Dave's Bread was killer until Flowers bought the company & changed the integrity of the bread. . . Also, seeds & whole grains work wonders for our intestines .. it's that pesticides are being sprayed on the majority of seeds & grains that is the problem. Also the agricultural pesticide runoff is poisoning the world's water supply . .
@@donnad7426 that's sad. I only had it a few times about 3 years ago. It was delicious.
Wish there were more Daves in the world. Hope I can get a job. New Zealand.
Wonderful story. I have often thought how difficult it must be to finish prison and then be able to get someone to hire you so you can support yourself
Thanks for posting! My mother-in-law buys this bread but not sure if she knows the story. Will have to ask her about it and try the bread myself. Great story! Glad Dave was able to turn his life around and his brother was able to keep things going while Dave was going thru his stuff. What a voice! It reminds me a bit of Danny Trejo (a non-Latino sounding version). Hope the new owners keep up the quality and the social service aspect of the business. ❤☮🌎
Daves story is inspiring and I have been eating his bread for many years....love it! Keep it up Dave!
@0:43,,, business in the front & rock star party in the back - The mullet ! LMAOOO !!!
It's all good intent...dont let the grammar nazi bother you....we understand.
Very cool! More help is needed for all who are down and out!
I love his transparency and his amazing story of turning his life around and inspiring others!!
I do like this bread. I m like a fan of The white bread done right. When toasted it has a great bite to it and I will only us e for my toasted cheese sandwiches. I have shared my preference with others. That the story behind the product is awesome and Dave’s vision and passion lives on is a really big plus.
For the longest time, I saw the long hair, the mustache, the guitar, and the name Dave in the logo, and I genuinely thought this was David Crosby's venture.
I just bought this yesterday from Trader Joe’s. Nice work Dave.
You thought it was "Dave's Killer Bread" when it was really "Killer Dave's Bread". 😂
If I were to recommend any store bought bread purely by taste, it’s anything from this brand.
Dave's was the best until Flowers bought the company & changed the integrity of the bread.
Great story. And I am glad that he is raising awareness to help the incarcerated and giving a second chance.
This dude put his mugshot picture on millions of loaves of bread. What a turnaround story 🎉
I had no idea… this is awesome. I am a firm believer that everything happens for a reason, the good with the bad.
Great work!!!!
Being diabetic, it is the best option I have, as some that are maybe better for us, but do not taste good, so not worth eating. So, Dave's is the only kind I purchase now, both bread and buns. Interesting to know his/ the history. Just like Tony Robbins says, the past does not equal the future. He is the perfect example!
I bought Dave's until the Flowers company took over & changed the integrity of the bread. You mentioned being diabetic .. did you choose this bread because Dave used fruit juice in place of sugar? If so, you may want to revisit the list of ingredients . . .
Wow, I don't know what's worse: Dave's dry killer bread or a person quoting a charlatan like Tony Robbins. Are you Tom Brady in disguise forcing it on that lunatic Antonio Brown?
@@jbjacobs9514 If you do not like the bread, why are you even looking at this? Secondly, I bet Tony is a damned site more successful than you, and lastly, I do not know the the F Antonio Brown is. Why do you waste you time insulting people like me who are just saying, trying to help and maybe in info. This is why I have stopped posting on FB and I guess now YT. AND, you do not have the balls to even show who you are, just a JB. Have a nice day! OH, and no! I am not Tom Brady, not that that has anything to do with it.
What an amazing story. One of inspiration and love for one's fellow man. I was a General Manager of a manufacturing company and hired a lot of felons. When I sat down with them for an interview and offer of employment I said the same thing to each. I'm giving you an opportunity - it is up to you to change your situation. Most of my employees were top notch and really moved the company forward. Only one reoffended. While it did not impact the compact financially it hurt me personally. I told that young man so when I saw him in the later. Jesus came here for the sick and afflicted - and the down trodden. We need to get past our bias and give people more chances. God bless you Dave Dahl.
It really is wonderful bread! And I feel so much better supporting people who are supporting people rather than the huge corporations!
Wow. Glad for him!
Inspirational. I always used to try to hire unemployed folk at my oyster farms here in nz
I really respect this man. Through all his trials and tribulations, he always kept an epic stache'... Well played sir. Well played!
Thank you to Dave and everyone involved!
The bread taste really good!
The English muffins are the better than any other brand.
Am now CERTAIN to buy Dave's Bread...
It's really good bread
Ezekiel is way better
Taking his drawing principles from the inside to make his business is deeply inspiring
I just started eating this bread and now after hearing this story I know now why I liked it so much. Thank you Dave.
Stories like these remind me that criminals released from prison have paid for their crimes. They are allowed a normal life.
I’ve been eating Dave’s for several years and have never read his story. Good for you Dave!
Good work!
I always buy this when I can because I love this work he’s doing.
This guy needs to be an Audible reader. I his voice is phenominal. With that deep and gravelly a voice, he could put me to sleep through ASMR.
I just bought my first Dave's Killer Bread a few wks ago. First, very good tasting bread. Second, mold got to it before I could finish it. Which tells me the ingredients are true food. You gotta wonder about food that can sit on your shelf for weeks and not rot.
I put my bread in the freezer after a few days to prevent it from getting moldy. To defrost I just toast it. Tastes the same.
I keep mine in the freezer too!
I love this bread. Learning about his story and how Glen was so compassionate, I want more. More reasons to eat bread, yay!
Oh my God. I had no idea... I have tears streaming down my face. Bravo, Dave. I've been eating your fabulous bagels & breads for YEARS
Ironically, Dave actually seems like a really killer dude.
Love Dave's Killer Bread! Great stuff!
Shared to encourage others ❤
I had no idea, amazing work and his bread is delicious! Thank You, Dave wish you the best.
