Default What bread do you use?

I've been sticking mostly to the Arnold brand, their whole wheat, fiber, and multi grain breads are yummy, and seem to be a good fit diet wise; lower calorie and sugar, whole wheat, extra fiber etc. Is this a good brand to stick with?

Are there healthier options available at most grocery stores? What kind of bread do you use?

I've given up eating a lot of breads, but when I absolutely have to have a piece, I eat pita bread.

I have pretty much omitted bread from my diet but when I really want bread I get my favorite Oroweat Winter Wheat , delicious, Oroweat Rye with Dill is very good, too.

I use the Arnold pita breads occasionally, but the only bread I really eat anymore is Flatout Flatbreads, if at all.

There are 3 brands of light wheat bread that I switch between, depending on the store I'm in and the prices. Sara Lee, Pepperidge Farm and Weight Watchers are all brands that make a 45 calorie per slice wheat bread. So two servings of that and I can have my sandwich.

I like the Nature's Own High Fiber bread. 50 calories a slice, AND 5 grams of fiber PER slice. Best bang for your buck!

I vote with JudgeDread and WAHMto5, all of the Nature's Own breads are good ( and the fiber one seems more substantial when eating it, more than most low calorie breads). I also just came across two new and fabulous options: Flatout Flatbreads (huge, and light options are very low calories, good for making "pizza" too ) and Toufayan bakeries pita breads (for those counting points, only 1 for the entire loaf.... I am in love).

I really like Silver Hills. I switch between their Max Flax (which also comes in a gluten free form), Steady Eddie (flourless) and Little Big Bread. They sell all of these at Costco in 2 packs.

I've been using Sara Lee 45 multigrain when I really want a sandwich. I also like Trader Joe's Multigrain British Muffins for breakfast.

Flat-outs taste like mold to me, I don't even know why. I've found that if I search through the tortillas in the tortilla section, I can usually find one brand that is between 60-70 calories per tortilla though.

I really like the Arnold's Rye, Dill-Rye, and Pumpernickel breads, and they are low in calories (50 cal/slice) while still being tasty. They freeze well too.

Also, for a treat, some bagel places make bagelettes, half-size bagels that otherwise taste like real bagels.
