WHITE BREAD

Visit The Healthy Living Bookshelf:

Store white bread at room temperature in a plastic bag and use within a few days.

White bread is made with refined white flour that has been stripped of its fiber and most of its nutrients; it is then re-enriched with synthetic vitamins.

Varieties

White bread is available in rolls and loaves of various shapes and sizes.

Buying and storing tips

Buy white bread in the bakery or bread section of most health food stores and supermarkets. Store in a breadbox or plastic bag at room temperature, and use within a few days.

Availability

White bread is available year-round.

Preparation, uses and tips

Although white bread is very popular, it should be used sparingly. Whole-grain bread is a better choice since it provides more nutrients and fiber.
