Bread

If your like us then you probably thought eating "Sarah Lee 45 Calorie Delightful" bread from the supermarket was a healthy option. Sure, the calories are low, but at what cost?

Leave a loaf of this bread alone for a couple weeks. You won't see much of a difference. Here is why:

Ingredients

Water, enriched flour [wheat flour, malted barley flour, niacin, reduced iron, thiamin mononitrate (Vitamin B1), riboflavin (Vitamin B2), folic acid], cottonseed fiber,wheat gluten, high fructose corn syrup, wheat protein isolate, cornstarch, contains 2% or less of the following: yeast, salt, calcium

propionate (preservative), yeast nutrients (mono-calcium phosphate, calcium sulfate, ammonium sulfate), natural flavor, dough conditioners (may contain one or more of the following: mono- and diglycerides, sodium stearoyl lactylate, calcium peroxide), soybean oil, sucralose, guar gum.

Try baking your own bread. It's relatively easy if you buy any of the "Bob's Red Mill" bread mixes, and you don't need a bread maker machine. The end result is whole, nutritious, and tastes great.

They sell these bread mixes almost everywhere. There is a large selection at HyVee on 40 hwy and Noland.
