White Wheat Bread ?

I'm not a big fan of whole grain / wheat. But I like white, white wheat, potato and oatmeal.

What's your opinion on white wheat ?

    You shouldn't be eating wheat in general. I'm a hypocrite when it comes to that as of now though. Lol.

    I love all bread. Oatmeal bread is my favorite, I'm making some right now. :heart:

    I love Texas toast white bread (for my french toast), but if I could have only one bread for the rest of my life, that would be potato bread.

    Why not? Assuming a person doesn't have a gluten allergy?

    I used to buy it for my kids before I got them to agree to upgrade to at least honey wheat. It does have a little more fiber in it than regular white bread at least, but there are no other advantages. I got freaked out about the preservatives when I realized that the brand I used to buy never molded.

    Eat what you like. Bread and wheat is just the latest victim of the internet fear-mongering hype machine. It's perfectly fine for the general population who do not have a sensitivity to it. Your white bread may not have as much fiber as the whole grain variety but hopefully you're eating enough vegetables that it should matter. Same goes for white rice, white pasta, etc.

    I am not biased towards any bread, unless it's made with cauliflower.

    Ha! I do buy white Kaiser rolls from the bakery sometimes, and they only last a very few day before turning moldy. And the whole wheat bread I eat regularly only lasts a week and a half at the most. Keep an eye on yours ;P Wish I had the time to make my own all the time.

    Why not? Assuming a person doesn't have a gluten allergy?

    One reason is that it contains gliadin and if you aren't familiar with what that is I suggest you look into it.

    I know what it is. But again, if a person has no gluten sensitivity and doesn't have coeliac disease then why should they be concerned about it?

    Yeah, totally... that's why lots of people are overweight. Wheat is in almost everything processed today.

    Gliadin? It's a protein. One half of gluten. It's usually the protein associated with an allergic reaction to wheat. If you aren't allergic to wheat, there's absolutely nothing wrong with it, and thousands of years of consumption bears that out quite nicely.

    Why, what do you think gliadin is?

    ummm yea…people are overweight because they eat too many calories, not because of some random ingredient in wheat…

    I eat about 30% of my intake from carbs and have had no issues with losing, and keeping weight off …I also maintain about 12% body fat...

    Yeah, I am sure that it has nothing to do with overeating. Must be wheat.

    Corn is in everything too. And sugar.

    When given the choice, the Roman legions voted to have bread instead of gruel to fuel the army.
    They're all dead now so, maybe it was the gliadin!!

    LOL. No it isn't. the reason people are overweight is because they overeat/eat at a calorie surplus.

    Oh, there's the problem. Wheat Belly. That book is basically fiction, as it completely ignores science, relying on confirmation bias to scare people into buying books.

    I never said overeating wasn't apart of it. Actually Giladin sends your brain addicting signals which cause you to overeat.
