I see Costco has started carrying it.  A question that has often baffled me is why would anyone buy it 2 months before Christmas?  Do you freeze it?  If so, why not wait until a day or two before Christmas so it's reasonably fresh?  Assuming it hasn't sat on a store shelf for weeks, that is.

So we can EAT it.     We don't consider it only a Christmas bread, but a breakfast and tea bread.     I remember a French hostess near t4e Italian border serving us panettone at breakfast during the summer.
