What kind of bread do you enjoy? To some of us, it's that soft feeling of white bread while others like the whole-grain goodness of 100% whole wheat bread. There are significant differences nutrition-wise; do you know what they are?

White bread is often made with bleached flour (not the best thing for weight control) along with "enriched" somewhere in the ingredient list (enriched with what?). Generally, you'll find cheap sweeteners like high-fructose corn syrup in many bread varieties as well.

Try 100% whole wheat bread if you get a chance. Look for varieties that have no cheap ingredients (brown sugar as a sweetener, for example), no bleached components and a low calorie rating per slice. Me? I stay far away from white breads, because once you get used to the whole wheat variety, nothing quite tastes like it!
