What's the healthiest sandwich
What's the healthiest sandwich bread for me
Look for the whole-grain bread with the fewest ingredients and follow this four- step process.
1. Read the ingredient list.
A whole grain such as wheat, oats, corn, rye, amaranth, or spelt should be listed first.
2. Don't judge the bread by its name. Some "multigrain" breads contain refined grains and flours but very little whole grain.
3. Check the fiber content.
Whole grains should provide at least two grams of fiber per 100 calories.
4. The shorter the ingredient list, the better.
Get as close to "whole-wheat flour, water, and yeast" as possible.
