Lowish carb bread

I found a sorta low carb bread at my grocery store (Metro)in Quebec. It's called "Bon Matin" "Double Bran" (http://www.multimarques.com/en/index.html#) and has 8g per slice.

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.

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...) Shaun "Shaun Brandt" wrote in message ... Jim Marnott wrote: I found a sorta low carb bread at my grocery store (Metro)in Quebec.

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.

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 - Leah in Quebec "Jim Marnott" wrote in message news I found a sorta low carb bread at my grocery store (Metro)in Quebec.

They might import it if they see some interest. It is quite good. martin |
