Sprouted Grain Artisan Bread — TREAT
Munch or Dump rates Sprouted Grain Artisan Bread by King Scoppers TREAT — score 45/90.
Branded as sprouted grain, but refined enriched wheat flour is the #1 ingredient, ahead of the cracked-grain blend. It's a mostly-white bread wearing a whole-grain costume.
Why this verdict
- Enriched (refined) wheat flour is the #1 ingredient, ahead of any whole grain
- Cracked 10-grain blend adds genuine fiber and whole-grain nutrients, but it's secondary
- Refined flour spikes blood sugar faster than the sprouted/whole-grain name suggests
- No artificial colors, flavors, or stacked emulsifiers — relatively simple list
Ingredients (5)
- Enriched wheat flour (moderate) — Refined flour with synthetic vitamins added back after milling stripped the real ones.
- Malted Barley Flour (safe) — A flour conditioner that aids browning and rise. Harmless in these amounts but contains gluten.
- Water (safe) — First ingredient by weight; this pudding is mostly water, not milk.
- Cracked 10 grain blend (purple wheat, barley, red wheat, buckwheat, brown flax, millet, triticale, amaranth, kamut khorasan wheat) (safe) — Genuine whole and cracked grains plus flax — fiber, minerals and some plant protein. The best thing in this loaf, but it ranks behind the refined flour.
- folic acid (safe) — Added folate fortification.
