Ezekiel 4:9 Organic Sprouted 100% Whole Grain Flourless Bread

I was just wondering if this would be an acceptable product. It is supposed to taste good and be good for you. Has anyone else tried it? It is made by Food for Life

Actually ingredients matter more than the nutritional panel for SB purposes (other than fiber for judging breads) but yes that is an acceptable bread for SB purposes. Does it list the # of grams for a slice? The closer it is to 30 grams, the closer it is to a serving size of 1 oz. for grains.

And just where do you get this? It sounds absolutely delightful!!

I was able to find it at Whole Foods, it is located usually in the freezer section

I will try looking in that type of store here. I don't think we have a WHOLE FOODS store here. Thanks!

In the absence of a Whole Foods (we don't have them here either), I was able to find most of this line carried at a local health food co-op. Check or call around at health food / organic stores in your area.

Just for educational purposes, here is why this is a good bread. Sprouted wheat has more nutritional value and every single grain listed has the word "Whole" in front of it meaning all of the grains used are 100% whole grain and there are no refined flours in it all. (I still argue over their use of the word "flourless"!) Fiber is 3 gms or more per slice, a slice is very close to the nutritional serving size of 1 oz (approx 30 gms), there is no HFCS and sugars are less than the fiber. While the presence of honey and molasses appears to be "problematical" there can't be much in there if there is less than 0.5 gms per slice for them to be able to say "0 gms" of sugars on the nutritional panel. Also the corn and millet (not SB friendly grains in general) are so far down the list as to not be a particular issue either.

While the rest of the info is useful in general, I left only those items that are really essential for choosing SB friendly breads and underlined the important values and terms.

Yes, I agree. And don't forget that yeast needs to feed on sugar to grow. Good sugars in good amounts here!

Thanks for the info
