Ancient Grain Bread

Breakdown

Ultra-processed · 3 ingredients to avoid

Nature's Own Ancient Grain Bread scores 6/100 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.

Nature's Own Ancient Grain Bread lists 20 ingredients, starting with Unbleached Enriched Flour, Water, Brown Sugar, Sourdough and Yeast. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 6/100 Nature's Own Ancient Grain Bread scores worse than most bread we have scored. A higher-scoring option in bread is The Essential Baking Company Organic Heritage Sourdough Artisan Bread at 100/100.
