Potato bread

Breakdown

3 ingredients to avoid

Sara Lee Potato bread scores 46/100 on Tallow — our okay 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.

Sara Lee Potato bread lists 22 ingredients, starting with Unbleached Enriched Wheat Flour, Non Fat Milk, Reconstituted Potatoes, Yeast and Sugar. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 46/100 Sara Lee Potato bread lands mid-scale — below the typical score in bread, but clear of the bottom band. A higher-scoring option in bread is jovial 100% Organic Einkorn All-Purpose Flour at 100/100.
