15 Grain Bread
Ingredients for the Pepperidge Farm 15 Grain Bread I purchased yesterday:
Whole Wheat Flour, Water, Sugar, Crushed Wheat, Wheat Gluten, Sunflower Seeds, Yeast, Contains 2 Percent or less of: Soybean Oil, Oats, Honey, Salt, Kibbled Barley, Kibbled Rye, Kibbled Triticale, Millet, Degerminated Yellow Corn Grits, Datem (Dough Conditioner), Flaxseed, Nonfat Milk (which adds a trivial amount of cholesterol), Distilled Monoglyceridies, Wheat Protein Isolate, Calcium Propionate (to retard spoilage), Soy Fiber, Soy Lecithin, Amaranth Flour, Brown Rice Meal, Buckwheat Flour, Flaxseed Meal, Millet Flour, Whole Quinoa Flour, Whole Sorghum Flour, Whole Spelt Flour, and Enzymes.
I've emboldened the various grains (and the enemy), but I'd like to share a few notes:
1) Most of this is wheat of some variety or another. I've italicized the real cheat which is
2) Each grain is makes up 2% or less of the bread! 2% isn't much and less could be--it could be none! This could just be wheat bread with sunflower seeds in it. It also contains 2% or less of unicorn testicle.
3) Triticale is a hybrid of wheat and rye--two already represented grains.
4) Datem is an emulsifier. It's an acronym for Di-Acetyl Tartrate Ester of Monoglyceride. MMMMMMMMmmmmmm...
5) Amaranth can be used as a cereal, but is, in fact, an herb.
6) To kibble means to coarsely grind.
7) Unicorn testicle isn't a grain, either.
8) Flax and soy aren't really grains.
9) Buckwheat is legit. It's just called buckwheat because it is used in much the same way as wheat.
10) Spelt is just biblical-talk for wheat, if you ask me. And yes, that is how it's spelt.
11) At most, there are only 14 grains here. Really, more like 6 or 7.
More on this later.

i like the spelt pun. you should try and find a way to be paid for your punning skills.
I can hook you up with real bread recipes if needed. Making bread is not so hard.
