I don't know how many times I get frustrated with people who berate me for eating french bread (which I think has way more taste than sandwich bread) saying whole wheat bread is so much better for me. I always think first off, I only occasionally eat white. Second, the french bread I make at home with only unbleached, unbromated bread flour, yeast, water and salt at least doesn't have all the additives in a store-bought package of whole wheat. I see any combination of fat/oils and multiple sweeteners like brown sugar, sugar, molasses, high fructose corn syrup plus other preservatives in those loafs. (Of course the best thing is when some people don't realize they are eating wheat bread that isn't actually "whole wheat".) I admit I'll eat it in sandwiches, but you won't hear me praising them as being extra healthy. If I want healthy whole wheat bread I make my own and those usually still have a little raw sugar/honey added or a 3:1 whole wheat:bread flour ratio. *end rant* Thank you for this article.
