Anyone who tells us real women to not eat carbs can bite our juicy round tushy’s! We eat bread and we love every bite. Optimal is a fresh, hot, gourmet ciabatta bread from Fairway, but once in a while a pre-packaged bread is a consolation prize when you can’t get to the bakery. Though we eat our share of Ezekiel bread, there is nothing that comes close to the delicious, almost cake-like texture and taste of Rudi’s Bread. We aren’t going to lie to you, the soft divine slices totally contain some brown sugar and molasses, but the rest of the ingredients read like a health food manual, and every bit of it is organic. It’s definitely a special occasion bread, and it’s not something I keep in the house regularly (because it would be gone by noon,) but it’s the ultimate replacement for fresh bread when popping in to Whole Foods or the health food store for some basics. And it’s certainly a lesser evil for kids over sugary cereals for breakfast or lunch sandwiches.
Try it: The Rudi’s Whole Wheat with a slathering of faux gras, fresh tomatoes, and a smattering of fresh basil.

Most of Rudi’s Organic breads are vegan with the exception a few varieties that contain honey and egg whites, so be sure to check the ingredients to be sure you are buying the right one.
