Care to tell my how it's garbage?.
This should be part of a show called: Trolling European or actual American?
I know some Americans who would readily call cake "bread". But they know that it's not great and contains too much sugar and/or molasses.
Bread is water, flour and salt; perhaps some oil to keep it moist and maybe fancy stuff like carrots or seeds. But never sugar. There's already sugar hidden everywhere else. No need to add it to a staple food aswell.
I thought it was irony until i read the other comments...that bread is absolute shit, the list should only contain flour, water and yeast
Edit: i forgot salt
Poor Americans are so conditioned to eat garbage to support their "health system" oligarchs, they can't even tell what's healthy what's not.
No matter how many healthy ingredients it contains, it does not negate the bad ingredients. Namely in this case a ton of sugar. You are eating cakes, not bread.
It's called "health halo" marketing.
2g. You're a fucking moron 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣👌👍
4-5 grams of added sugar. A whole fucking teaspoon of added sugar per slice. Enjoy getting diabetes from your "healthy bread".
And next time look up the facts before you shit your pants again and make a clown out of yourself 🤡

Lol get over yourself. The bread is maybe 1-2g sugar per slice, cake is like 15g
Then why is sugar listed as the third ingredient? You do realise the ingredients are listed from the most to the least contained in the product. If sugar is 1-2g, then your slice of bread must weigh no more than 10 grams, LOL
Edit: I looked up your "Dave’s Killer Bread (21 Whole Grains)" and it has 3 to 5 grams of added sugar per slice! Yeah, that's a cake.
Funny how it's marketed as healthy in the USA. Like I said you are conditioned to eat garbage, and you believe the lies they tell you.
Enjoy getting diabetes from your "healthy bread". Gotta support that "health system" somehow, otherwise it would be very unprofitable to have a healthy population.
The bread in my pantry is sara lee whole wheat, 1g sugar/26g slice ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
From memory, a typical grocery store whitebread is 2g for a similar size slice
The ingredient list is a mile long and the third most ingredient is sugar.
Bread needs flour, water, yeast and salt.
2g. Try again. The circle jerk and just imaginary stories y'all make up to fit your narrative is just crazy.
Sugar, molasses (different sugar), probably no fermentation time, probably no crust.
Different point, is that really the average bread? I doubt it.
2g. Try again.

Sweet brown palm oil.
