Lowish carb bread

They're pretty much a regular size slice of bread. Bon Matin has other
ones as well, but they are a bit higher in carbs.

Each slice of Double Bran of 33g has:

65 Cal
3.3g protein
1.3g fat
12g Carb - 4g fiber = 8g carb/slice

For any LC'ers living in Oregon (and possibly elsewhere in the Pacific
Northwest), Franz Bakery introduced their own low carb bread last week.
It's called 'Smart Nutrition 7-7-60', and despite the claim of 7g of
carbs per slice, they don't subtract the 4g of fiber, so the net carb
count is only 3g. The slices are smaller than a 'normal' slice of
bread, but not too much. In my opinion, it's pretty good (especially
toasted), though I can't offer any comparisons to other LC breads since
I haven't tried any yet.

OOO OOO me me me, I live in Oregon. We have quite a few bread choices at my
local nutrition store including a nice sourdough garlic from Pangratto from
Lake Oswego
Total fat 2g
sat fat1g
cholesterol2mg
sodium 60mg
Total carb 3gm
Fiber 1g
sugars1g
protein 8g
Ingredients. Water, proprietary blend (Soy flour, wheat gluten isolate)
Canola oil, sour base(wheat flour, Vitamin C, enzymes, Niacin, reduced iron,
salt, wheat sour, rye sour, fumaric acid, bunch of other acids and enzymes,
modified food starch, eggs, yeast, garlic salt.

Then there is Joe bread from Portland 2.5g per slice, not bad for dunking
toast, finally there is Food for Life low carb bread plain and herb found in
Fred Meyer health food freezer 3 effective carbs per slice, ok for
sandwiches, yukky for toast.

Where does Franz Bakery market their breads?

I know that you can find Franz bread in Oregon and Washington, but I'm
not sure if they sell it anywhere else. If anyone is looking to find
some of the 7-7-60, the only store I've seen it in so far is Albertsons.
Costco is supposed to sell it in two loaf packages for ~$5, but I
haven't been to a Costco in the last few weeks.
I'll have to get some of the other breads you mentioned and try them.
It's always good to have more options (and more sandwiches...)

Those low-carb breads do, indeed, have smaller slices. I have
been buying low-carb bread for my daughter recently, taking
advantage of the fact that the bakery that made her favorite
high-carb bread closed.

I think the reason the slices are smaller is that they are more dense.
Maybe the dough doesn't rise as much or something, but my low-carb bread
comes in two sizes. One sizes is clealry meant to have slices that are
half the size of normal bread, but the other size is only marginally
smaller than normal bread. But of course the bread is more dense, owing
to the fact that, in my case anyway, it has whole sunflower seeds in it
and no flour.

It is very good bread though. The brand I use in Norway is called
Linberg Bread. Here is a link to Dr Lindberg's web site.

It is written in Norwegian, but you can figure out enough to see the
nutrional values and such.

I buy Bon Matin from time to time. I also use IGA 100% Whole Wheat. It's
cheap and relatively low in carbs:

Per 2 slices:
energy - 113 cal
protein - 5.6 g
fat - 1.9 g
carbohydrate - 20 g
dietary fibre 3 g

OROWHEAT LIGHT : 9 gms carbs minus 3.5 fiber = 5.5 grms carbs PER SLICE.
I get mine any of local grcery stores in CA for about 3.99 and it freezes
well. I keep what I currently use in the fridge (not required)

The bread I am getting for my daughter is anything BUT dense! It
is very squishy. Ugh. I'd rather find a nice chewy LC bread for
myself, if I ever eat such a thing again. Luckily, I do like
whole grains and seeds.

You might try asking at an IKEA store, if there is one near you, if they
carry Lindberg Bread in their Scandinavian food department. They might
import it if they see some interest. It is quite good.
