Plain Jewish Rye

Breakdown

5 ingredients to avoid

Bowl & Basket Plain Jewish Rye scores 15/100 on Tallow — our avoid band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

Bowl & Basket Plain Jewish Rye lists 22 ingredients, starting with Enriched Wheat Flour, Water, Rye Flour, Yeast and Ground Caraway Seed. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 15/100 Bowl & Basket Plain Jewish Rye scores worse than most bread we have scored. A higher-scoring option in bread is jovial 100% Organic Einkorn All-Purpose Flour at 100/100.
