I started out emailing companies to see if their bread had animal products when I wasn't sure from the label, but the answers weren't very satisfying. So I switched to a fancy "natural" line of breads with short ingredients lists like flour, salt, water, sugar, etc. Glad you found a bread that works better for you! :) It's very easy to overindulge in fresh bread!

Like ...How does bread end up not being vegetarian?<br /><br />Like Liz, I stopped eating bread when I had digestion issues regularly. Since starting on the 'weight loss' program, I've followed her recommendations, and using very high fibre 'fancy' (pricey) bread, and haven't had any trouble. I don't know if I'm over my issues, or it's better bread. In the past, I made fresh bread with a former BF, it was such a delight, but so easy to overindulge (at least I do!)SarahN @ livetolisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01429385342825413879noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3151457747314880879.post-73154638887602475182014-03-25T19:52:29.516-04:002014-03-25T19:52:29.516-04:00Thank you!
