    I think that depends on the size. A small wrap?

    10" Low Carb Whole Wheat Tortillas has about 200 calories....
    6" Low Carb Whole Wheat Tortillas has about 70 calories...

    My whole wheat bread (from Trader Joes) has 100 calories per slice. However, I have seen whole wheat bread slices that have around 70 calories.

    So, I guess which is better for you depends on which one you prefer. Also, I think what is more important is what you are putting on it, sauces, etc.

    it depends! both are good for you if they are whole wheat and filled with fiber! often times, i find regular white wraps contain way more calories than traditional white bread, but stick to whole wheat, and high fiber and you should be good!!!

    You have to consider too that you usually only use one wrap and 2 slices of bread, unless its only half a sandwich

    If they are made with whole wheat flour, then it doesn't matter. Just go by the cals.
