wheat bread verses white bread

[Liquidfire_43]

Wheat bread has a lot of nutrition as opposed to white bread... White breads are usually bleached  (remove the natural oils of the wheat grain) to have longer shelf life but less nutritional value than wheat

It doesn't matter to me, either bread is fine with me.

I have always heard that wheat bread is better for you thank white break.  I like the Nature's Own White Wheat Bread.  It does not go bad as quick as some bread does.

if it's a whole grain wheat bread then they say it's healthier for you but who really knows. It seems like everytime they tell us something a few weeks later they say something different.

Fiber content is considerably higher in wholewheat breads and other whole grain breads are even higher. This is what the 'health' issue is about. Now we have gluten to hear about and though some have a sensitivity to it and just can't tolerate it, the more I hear about it indicates that the 'gluten scare' is more hype than reality.

I like the white/wheat breads but I really favor pumpernickle varieties.
