What bread is everyone eating

I know it's probably already been said, but I find this thread a bit too kneady.

As recently diagnosed as Diabetic, I've been trying to reduce bread / pasta , general carb consumption, but the hardest thing was giving up a nice tuna sandwich.

I'm trying LivLife bread from Waitrose which is half the carbs (10.2 per 100g), but it has a few drawbacks. The Slices are the size of a playing card. It looks like bread, but it barely tastes like it and has a chewy heavy texture.

Lastly it's £2 for a 500g loaf (trust me the Slices are tiny). So it gets quite expensive.

Anyone any suggestions for another low-carb bread ?

Mainly sourdough as the misses makes it but love French Sticks, heavy black Rye bread, wholemeal, ciabatta, as long as it’s from a good bakery I eat it all

I think I'd prefer a carpet tile to rye bread. Those Eastern European breads are a little too dense. A slice of boiled ham is much better on a 'springy' slice.

If bread isn't nice don't get it. Have you tried lettuce tuna wrap?

Heylo , get it on amazon , seeded is the best i find but there are several choices in the range , freezes well as well

The sourdough from Trove in town is the GOAT of all breads. Toasted with butter it can’t be beaten. Has to be toasted though.

That's not a sandwich though.

lidls half baguettes freshly baked are lovely for a bacon sarnie

Is the best bread ever made, pretty much end of the thread really, because if any **** comes on here and says it’s shite they’re lying, and they’d have all had it as well

nice when first bought but really once its opened lasts less than a day before it is soft and tender texture turns rough.

it isn't a keeper like say a bloomer

Get a day and following morning out of it for toast yea then that's it, I agree

That's not a sandwich though.

I beg to differ, search Internet "sanwich without bread" there's loads. If the bread is a must, choose the bread that best meets balance of nutrition taste and make an open sandwich. Or keep searching. Good luck. This is good chat as I just tend to get what ever bread is on offer (except s Market white cheapo )

Sourdough and it’s good for your gut.

 

[Slipper One]

Always bought 'better' quality bread, rather than the cheap white stuff (crap) advertised as bread, but have recently started making by own.

Easy to make, tasty and improving all the time, but a while away from what I would consider perfected.

I honestly can't see myself buying grocery store bread again.
