Whole grain bread


Question Posted Monday December 14 2009, 7:00 am

I've been trying to be healthy so I switched to whole grain. I got brownberry bread and it is the health nut kind. I looked and saw it has 120 calories in 1 slice. In the white valutime bread there is 80 why so much less?

When you buy whole wheat bread (that's the most common kind) you have to look for the words
"100 % whole wheat" on the front of the package. If your bread doesn't say 100%, you probably are getting "not as healthy" white bread that has been colored the color of wheat by the company adding caramel color (and a bunch of other stuff that they think helps it sell as "healthy," but it is not.)

The 100% whole wheat that I have in my kitchen has exactly 80 calories per slice. And you don't have to buy an expensive brand, either. The one I buy is by the store....it has the grocery store name on it. It is the cheapest of all of the "100 % kind" and is just as healthy.

I hope this helps! Good luck!
