    Yep, bread has a higher glycemic index than cake. It's true. It's not just about calories. Higher GI foods spike blood glucose.

    Plain french bread has a higher GI index than Chocolate cake with chocolate frosting? (the entries I looked up) I highly doubt that. Could you post a documented source for that?

    White bread dipped in ketchup is delicious.

    Just sayin'.

    Don't overthink it. Stay under your calorie allotment and enjoy your bread in moderation. All these fitness geek number games will make it harder than it has to be.

    Check out https://www.westernbagel.com/

    Their "Perfect 10" bagels are the ones I buy and they are of substantial size and only 150-160 calories but have 19g of protein so they are super filling. I eat them with PB2 or cream cheese, use them for sandwiches, and even made bread pudding with them. They definitely satisfy my bread cravings.

    Treat it like a piece of cake. Very interesting fact: your body have higher glycimic impact on bread rather then on cake. Do u eat cakes every day????

    Most likely bread is going to have less calories than a slice of cake....

    Noop, almost the same. Plus, any bread flour contain phytoglucans which gives more glycimic impuct than any high fat cakes
    May you please post a reputable link to this information @natasor1?

    OP can you clarify why you want to eliminate bread from your diet? Is it that you have difficulty moderating your intake? Are you doing a low carb diet for medical reasons? Did you read somewhere that bread was "bad" or that you can't lose weight if you eat bread?

    Don't buy it if you don't want it. Focus on other foods you enjoy.
    Moderate instead of eliminate. If you feel bread takes up too many calories and prevents you getting enough protein or something try eating it only once per day.
    Put the sliced bread loaf in the freezer and only take out a small amount at a time.

    I've seen some pretty weird claims on MFP. This one takes the cake.

    It takes the cake sandwich!
