5 Things You Must Know About Bread Before Taking The Next Slice! by unuane1(m): 6:19am On Dec 13, 2014 |
Here are valuable points about bread. 1. Putting bread in the fridge will actually make it go stale quicker. Bread from the grocery store will stay fresh for 2 to 4 days if you leave it on the counter. Bakery bread, which usually has fewer preservatives, will keep 1 to 3 days. If you want to store bread for a longer, put it in the freezer. It will stay fresh for 2 to 3 months. 2. Eating too much bread can raise your BP. If you eat toast in the morning, a sandwich at lunch, and a roll with dinner, you're not just loading up on carbohydrates. You're also eating a lot of salt. A single slice of bread isn't high in salt. But eating bread several times a day adds up. Too much salt raises blood pressure. It can put you at risk of heart attack or stroke. 3. Do you see green or black fuzzy spots on the piece of bread you're about to throw into the toaster? Toss out the whole loaf! Don't just throw away the pieces with the mold. That's because the mold may have spread to other parts of the loaf. There are a few different kinds of mold that pop up on bread. The blue-gray- green fuzzy mold is the same fungus that can produce penicillin. 4. Fiber from whole grains helps reduce cholesterol and may lower the risk of heart disease. Nutrients in whole grains help your body form red blood cells and keep your immune system healthy. 5. Eating whole-grain bread can help you manage your weight. The fiber in whole-grain breads can make you feel full longer and help you control your weight. But that doesn't mean you can have as much bread as you'd like. To lose weight, eat less, exercise more, and eat healthy foods. |

Bread 511...lol thanks op esp the freezeer part. How about when I see some black spots on the bread? Why should bread from grocery last more than the bread from bakery. Always thought otherwise |

unuane1: So long as I can't see the mold everywhere, my bread is still fresh. All I just have to do is cut off the fungus-infested area. Grandpa has been doing this, and he still plays golf. Lmao |
