Most supermarket bread contains additives you might not expect (see "Chorleywood Bread process).
if you want real bread from a supermarket, try this. http://www.waitrose.com/shop/ProductView-10317-10001-131221-Crosta+&+Mollica+altamura+durum+wheat+bread Alternatively, make your own, it's easier than you think and you have full control over the ingredients. |

If this doesn't put you off factory bread, I don't know what will.

as said it's easy to make and gets easier as you do it, get a Kenwood with a dough hook and build an outdoor oven this summer.

On the Tescoes website under one of the Hovis loaves:
At Hovis we believe that natural is best, which is why we promise never to use artificial preservatives. This means you get all the great tasting, freshness you expect - just more naturally And then what's in it: Wheat Flour (with Added Calcium, Iron, Niacin, Thiamin), Water, Original Granary Blend (Granary Malted Wheat Flakes (11%), Malted Barley Flour, Toasted Wheat, Wheat Bran, Toasted Rye), Wheat Protein, Yeast, Salt, Vinegar, Caramelised Sugar, Vegetable Fat (Rapeseed, Palm), Soya Flour, Barley Flour, Emulsifiers: E471, E472e, Barley Fibre, Flour Treatment Agent: Ascorbic Acid All that 'natural' goodness, mmm. I wonder when they started putting soya in their bread and - did they ask customers if they wanted it? I don't eat bread of any kind because the gluten passes through the intestinal wall, causes an immune response and sets you up for inflammation, not to mention it's protein's ability to cross the bood-brain barrier and bind with opiate receptors. However, fair enough people like their bread, but what the hell do they want four kinds of flour for in one loaf? |

How can you be so sure the cramps are down to soya zorro?
Even if you have narrowed it down to bread on its own you would have done well. |

the food and drinks industry needs serious regulating imo.
think its scandalous they can introduce stuff into foods without any long term trials. |

I have stopped eating Hovis. I do note that Tescos price for Hovis has been a lot cheaper than usual. Coincidence?
