Who here eats sourdough bread?

I know some of you already want to derail this thread with talk about other kinds of bread. Well, don't, please! 

Sourdough bread is magical. It has live bacteria in it that help you digest the bread - and, not only that - help your digestion in general too. It's a bread that feed the good bacteria, the good guys living your gut to help make you a happier, more capable person.

Three cheers for sourdough bread!

I'm gluten intolerant and even I can eat it because of the bacteria in there. Any other gluten product - pasta, other kinds of breads - give me major issues but not sourdough.

  • agreed, sourdough bread is amazing... technically, it doesn't have live bacteria. they all bit the dust when they bake the darn stuff. but what they do is make the whole wheat more digestible, as the bacteria break down the insoluble fiber. an interesting variant is salt risen bread. that uses the same bacteria that causes .............. food poisoning. for some reason, no one wants any part of my salt risen bread. their loss....
