  • The cinamaon raisin ins great, its kinda like cake!! I usually get the low - sero sodium because I watch sodium intake, it is good as well, Trader Joes, or grocery in health food section - look in frozen helath food section.

    I eat Ezekiel 4:9 Sprouted Grain Bread by Food for Life. It comes frozen and I get it at a local health food store although they may carry it at my local supermarket. I haven't looked. They also make other types. You can see them here:

    What I tried was really nasty. It's located in the freezer section with the vegetarian stuff at my store.

    You can get them at most groceries stories in the organic freezer section. I have 4 different grocery stores nearby and they all carry a few products. I really love them and they are very filling! Here is a store finder link for you http://www.foodforlife.com/about-us/store-finder , several of my family members did not like them the first time they tried it but now they love them and eat them all the time. I always keep it in the freezer, pop it out and put it in the toaster and then make toasted sammys and what not with them. I love them toasted!

    ooo, you all so lucky. I can't have it because it uses grain sprouted from seeds, and I have sensitivities to all of that, so enjoy it for me, and I'll just watch and drool....

    Sprouted bread is about 75% of the bread I eat. Shop around - it can be expensive - I get mine in whole foods - what I eat depend on what is on sale. Most often I eat the low sodium.

    You can buy it online at the Ezekiel store http://foodforlife.elsstore.com/

    Ok, I'm a little behind on the bread thing, I've seen Ezekiel bread, but what makes it so special?? Please! I know where I have seen it and wonder why people talk about it here so much on MFP!
  • Trader Joe's - it is awesome!

    I can't get it to work for anywhere in the world. It constantly just says no results? Is this thing working?

    I was at Domionion (loblaws) the other day and down in the "health/specialty food" section in the freezer they had a sprouted bread. I didn't buy it cause it was way to expensive I think it was 5-6 something a loaf. And I was afraid I wouldn't like it.

    I'm wondering if they're anywhere else for this reason lol. Plus some of the stuff at the health food section at Dominion has been there gazillion years. Sometimes I go there and the ice creams are freezer burned from the inside out and I've bought a couple things that were gone bad. Not enough healthy people here to get rid of it :P

    Well, if you can't find a satisfactory store-bought version, you could always try to make it yourself:

  • I like the regular and 7-grain. I get it at my local health food store for just under $6. While that IS expensive for a loaf of bread, it is worth it to me (besides, I used to blow that much for a meal at Taco Bell or Sonic!).

    For those of you who didn't like it, what kind of bread are you used to eating? If you are a white bread baby, that's a pretty big jump. Also, it is good lightly toasted, as warming it up makes it a bit softer.

    When I get home I pop it in the fridge and eat it within a week. I also tried their cereal, but didn't care for it too much. Kashi has some amazing cereals though!

    If you are diabetic or even pre-diabetic, I would highly recommend this bread!

    I just started eating it a couple weeks ago. I love the sesame seed bread toasted. I lived in Canada and I buy it at the frozen section in the health food area at sobers or superstore.

    I love the cinnamon raisin toasted with Artisana coconut butter or peanut butter or made into stuffed french toast with cream cheese but I would not go so far as to say it tastes like cake, lol

    I live in Atlantic Canada and get my Ezekiel bread in the frozen/health food section.. it's near where the Liberte greek yogurt is and the gluten free frozen stuff. Both Sobey's and Superstore sells it!

    I absolutely must pick up some of this bread! I have been reading good things about it, and since I eat the same PB&Banana sandwich everyday, might as well have tbe healthiest bread :P

    I found the bread at my local Superstore frozen in the freezer section. I really like the stuff - though, hopefully the Trader Joe's bread is cheaper? I am only having bread every 2-3 days. Just the full english muffin. (Can't bring myself to have 1/2 an english muffin.

    It is quite good - I don't miss white bread at all having it.

    I'd try to find a local baker that makes it. I did in my area and it's the best thing I've had in my life, blows any commercial brand straight out of the water.

    I eat the regular sprouted seed toasted with almond butter every day. I don't like it as sandwich bread but I don't eat a lot of sandwiches anyway. My regular grocery store has it in the frozen section near the frozen garlic bread. It's about $5 a loaf so I'm gonna check out that allrecipes recipe to make my own!

    Ok, just checked out the recipe-I will continue to buy it lol!

    Wegmans and Trader Joe's here. I haven't got it in a while... but I like that it keeps a long time in the fridge.

    I am also eating Food for Life sprouted but I have been removing the crust and I only eat one slice every few days, until finish the loaf. I also have sensitivities (diverticulitis), so I can over do it or I get into big trouble. I love that bread but I don’t like pain!
