Is this sentence grammatically correct?

Hi there

Currently having a debate with a colleague about the 'correctness' of the below sentence. Can anyone shed some light?

"Would you like a slice of granary bread?"

Any answers/comments would be appreciated!
Thanks.

johnwesleyharding"Would you like a slice of granary bread?"
"granary" (lower case) is a building for storing processed grain.
Granary (capitalized) is a trademark for a specific brand of bread.

So, in writing, the word should be "Granary" if you mean this brand name.
As for speaking, it is something that a native speaker would ask.
