Sandwich Bread

Breakdown

2 ingredients to avoid

Sara Lee Sandwich Bread scores 44/100 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 Sandwich Bread lists 24 ingredients, starting with Wheat Flour, Malted Barley Flour, Niacin, Reduced Iron and Thiamin Mononitrate. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 44/100 Sara Lee Sandwich 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.
