Yeah they aren't the tastiest desert, but it does the trick

I also just remembered another brand name for a bread. It's Sara Lee's whole grain white bread. 30% whole wheat flour, 70% white flour. There's also probably recipes for breads on the recipe index where you can use 1/2 whole wheat flour and 1/2 white flour. That way you know the breads don't have any added ingredients.

A little bit of a SF cushion, yes - I posted somewhere else in this discussion, I think, that whole wheat bread does still contain some white flour. It pretty much has to, for the light texture that commercial breads tend to have.

Mind you, it still might not be enough SF, which is why I suggest trying (for example) a sandwich made with 1 slice of wheat and 1 slice of white for a start. Once you know you're fine with that, you can try all wheat.

There's no good trick for finding bread without HFCS, but a quick way to find dairy-free bread is to look for the Kosher mark "Parve". Bakery breads won't have that, but commercial breads will.

Yep, I eat the plain ol' regular Grape Nuts - the stuff that's like gravel. LOL! I love it. It's definitely not something I could have tolerated even a year ago, but I've gotten to a point where I can handle a LOT of IF, so I'm taking advantage of it!

Do you just buy the jarred fennel seeds in the spice aisle of the local grocery store? Are they "potent" enough, ya think?

If I do this, I'm still eating my "real" dessert too!

Thanks for the suggestion on the brand bread too. I'll have to check it out and look at the ingredients.

I read that "flourless" breads may be easier to digest...but I don't know. They look really high in IF, even for a Cer.

I think you've already asked this question under Augie. If you do a search you might find it.
