Even though health food has become fashionable (for perhaps less than rational reasons), I believe that greater awareness of what you eat is extremely important and I'm glad it's becoming mainstream. Now if only they would stop putting so much sugar in bread...
- Vendan 11y agoas much as I hate the anti-GMO stuff, cause in reality, we've genetically modified everything we eat through thousands of years of forced selection, I am all for better bread. I bake my own with minimal sugar and gluten, and it is soooo much better then store bread, and really makes a sandwich amazing(note, when I say minimal gluten, I mean no extra gluten, not gluten free flour).
- Kurtz79 11y agoI believe you, but I really think that has absolutely nothing to do with GMO, raher than the simple fact that fresh, homemade food is intrinsically better than store bought food, which is usually tuned for aesthetics and long shelf life as opposed to flavor.
- JoeAltmaier 11y agoNot really true! All of our grocery stores hereabouts bake every day, in-house. And don't assume a restaurant does a worse job than you of managing their freshness. They buy from the same grocery most likely. In fact, the grocery you buy from is a store; their fresh food is managed quite well. In fact everything you make is worse than that, because you have to buy it from them, THEN make something out of it. So its not as fresh.
- Vendan 11y agoSorry if it seemed like I was linking them, but I wasn't in any way. All the grocery store bread where I live, unless you go to the bakery, is this insanely soft sweet stuff, like Wonderbread and such. It feels like I use less sugar then there is in 2 slices of that stuff.
