I bought a loaf of low fat bread that was made with wood as part of their high fiber content that I did not know at the time. The bread in my toaster caught on fire not to mention the bread made a terrible sandwich. The the thought of sawdust in food is a turn off. Companies love to fool people with pushing the truth to the limits if not lies. I want truth in labeling. Is it unreasonable to go to a restaurant and ask for a chicken sandwich or a hamburger that is 100% Chicken or 100% Beef.

With obesity what it is these days, high fiber foods "may" give satisfaction without the calories. Presently, my preference is to put extra lettuce (garden grown to be sure) on my BLTs. Soon I'll be able to add thick slices of garden tomatoes to that combo. -- - Billy America is not broke. The country is awash in wealth and cash. It's just that it's not in your hands.

I use whole wheat and all-purpose unbleached flowers. I make my own bread, pancake mix and biscuits from the basics. Some day I will get a grinder and make my own flour from wheat berries. I am not sure but the berries i believe have a much longer self life than the flour itself. I have seen organically grown fifty pound containers of wheat berries for sale but I do not remember the cost. http://www.amazon.com/Peter-Reinhart...0422524&sr=8-2 I have this book. Now that my garden and yard is shape and I am maintenance mode until harvest I have more time during the day to do other things. it is a good time and get a new sourdough mother starter going again. During the winter my home is not warm enough for the mother starter to grow. Now it is warm enough and I have thine. -- Enjoy Life... Nad R (Garden in zone 5a Michigan) |

When Walniut Acer's was alive I'd purchase wheat berries and grind my own with I think it was called a corona wheat mill which had metal plates. Just about the same time 1986 some genius discovered that if you added cement to cattle feed they put on more weight. The world of quantity became ascendant and quality declined in many commodities. -- Bill S. Jersey USA zone 5 shade garden http://honest-food.net/ |
