    Just get some that say Amish or Ezekiel. Or Greek. Yeah. That's the ticket. Greek Amish Ezekiel Flat Organic Pitas with Flax Seeds. Gluten Free of course. May contain nuts because nuts are Gods way of separating the weak from the strong. YMMV. Check your local TJ's.
    La heim!

    Can someone please explain to me how bread is not clean? I'm really confused on this one. I thought whole wheat bread was considered clean.

    I'm not a clean eater so I really don't know much about the do's and don'ts

    Because "clean eating" is an arbitrary term, and no one really knows quite exactly what it means, since it means something different to everyone.

    I use arnold sandwich thins, because they have 100 calories. They are probably covered in filth, i have no clue.

    But flour is processed. So is yeast. And sugar. etc.
    Plus effort.
    Kneading. And letting it raise.
    Then there's the argument of bread machine vs oven vs crockpot

    I understand what you mean when you say clean but want to warn you are probably going to get a lot of responses asking what is clean and a bunch of responses that vary from humorous to sarcastic to borderline rude. "Clean Eating" is a touchy subject here. See the forum below for an example. Groups are a better place to ask this question.

    Here's one clean eating group.

    Ahaha!

    I like how the first non-flippant response with information got flagged 3 times.

    Are there any brands of wraps or syrian bread that are considered clean? I wanted to find some items that are hopefully available in mainstream grocery stores (ie Market Basket, Hannaford, Stop and Shop). Thanks!

    The word "clean" makes people a tad mental here.
    That said: Ezekiel is a very healthy brand of both breads and wraps.

    healthy is subjective.
    Ezekiel tastes like cardboard to me.

    And note that the moderator left all the adolescent off topic comments (which he has referred to as "trolling") when providing his own "contribution".... What a goofy board.

    Another way to help identify how clean the bread is to investigate the hygiene policies and practices used by the bakery / supermarket where it came from.

    everything is subjective.
    Would you be happy if I added a superlative, such as "healthier"?

    perhaps the only answer to any question on the boards is: is it tasty and does it fit your calories.
    but, oh, wait, tasty is subjective too.

    lol what a nut house.

    The bonus about not having pets is the 5 second rule can be extended to a good 8-10 seconds. I can be like "Aww, look at that, peanut butter side up. Win!", and then I grab my bread off the floor.

    Yes but isn't it one of the laws of physics that the bread NEVER lands peanut butter side up? Or is your house some magical alternative universe where the laws of physics don't apply? I bet you can eat more calories than you burn too...

    Make sure you don't open the bag upside down, it'll fall to the ground and get dirty... no longer clean. :cry:

    Yes, I've had this experience :'( lol

    Anyway, OP, If you're concerned with "clean", why not use huge romaine leaves/lettuce leaves and put whatever you'd put on a sandwich in the leaves?

    I'd rather eat my own feet than lettuce so a lettuce as bread option sounds like something you should be sent to the stocks for. Whats your definition of clean?

    It's just making up for the fact that I spill my coffee once a week, and when I drop toast it's always buttered side down. :grumble:

    Oh, believe me, I would never give up my delicious, wholesome, REAL bread for a lettuce leaf. But I have friends who will do this sometimes (Celiac's disease). I don't buy into this whole "clean" thing, but from what I understand, it's extremely plant based with minimal processing when it comes to the food itself.
