A short history of white bread
In ancient Egypt, bread was a symbol of prestige, while the Romans sieved their flour to produce a finer, whiter bread. However, throughout the Middle Ages, white bread remained a luxury, accessible only to the wealthy due to the labor-intensive process of milling flour and sieving it.
The Industrial Revolution marked a turning point for white bread. Technological advancements in milling made flour refinement more efficient, making white bread accessible to a broader population. The invention of the roller mill in the late 19th century significantly increased flour production, leading to mass-produced, affordable white bread.
By the early 20th century, white bread became a staple in many households due to its affordability and longer shelf life. It was heavily marketed as a symbol of modernity and cleanliness, contrasting it with the coarser, traditional whole grain bread.
However, as time progressed, criticisms emerged about the nutritional deficiencies of white bread compared to whole grain varieties, leading to a resurgence of interest in whole grain and artisanal bread in recent years. Today, while white bread remains popular, there’s a growing awareness of the nutritional benefits of whole grains, influencing preferences and consumption patterns.
The nutritional benefits of our low-carb bread
It's occasionally pointed out that our low carb slices are a little smaller in 'size' than regular bread slices. But, they weigh much the same and, more importantly come well-packed with protein and fibre, which will satisfy your appetite and keep you fuller for longer than any regular slice!
So it's not just what we've taken out (the carbs)... it's that we've added ingredients that boost and enrich our bread's nutritional composition, giving you a healthier, more wholesome slice.
Why is your white keto bread more expensive?
