I was wondering if the white whole wheat bread such as Sara Lee brand is legal for SB? Can this flour be purchased now at any store?
There actually is a white whole wheat flour. It's made from a variety of wheat that is white but it is whole grain and acceptable on SB. King Arthur is one of the brands I have used. It's very good.

Since the white whole wheat flour is whole grain I imagine the GI is similiar to any other whole grain wheat flour. It is light in color but coarser than the refined white flour. I use it to bake with and most people don't realize that it's whole grain (except that it tastes better than the processed stuff).

Molly,
You are right, I have used it when I lived in the states.
I used the King Arthur brand as well, and it bakes great!
Not available here though!
I guess that is the trade off for living in paradise!

Well, Ed, you surprised me here. Since we usually think on the same wave-length, I expected a different answer. But, I certainly do bow to your experience and knowledge. I have no idea about the white ww flour, but it did bring to mind another food crop - the hybridized corn which turned so many American Indians into diabetics.

Chana,
Nice to see you, I haven't been around for awhile.
But, I must say you are just as knowledable on these issues as me, (if not more so) I just happened to have used the flour! I thought at one time it was not processed anymore than sgww, but just bleached. Then after research fopund out different. But, a good thought about the corn, you are always on your toes my friend!
Take care,
Ed
