Well, it is for me anyway. The holy grail for lots of us is "proper bread". Most of us eat Burgen because of the low carbs and GI, although the taste and texture isn't perhaps quite the same as "real" bread.
But I've just found a new bread in Sainsburys.
It's Sainsburys own "Taste the difference soft multiseed wholemeal farmhouse batch", with sunflower, linseed, millet and poppy seeds. It's "Normal" texture really tasty bread, and the carb figures stack up.
Burgen is 27.3 grams carbs per 100, 12 per slice compared with most breads at 40 per 100 and 18 per slice. This new bread is 30.7 per 100 and 14.4 per slice
So a BIT more than burgen, but a lot less than normal. I had a sarnie yesterday, tested, got the same results as with Burgen. So worth a go I'd say.
