Does the weight of the bread have any bearing on its healthy attributes?
Often times, whole grain bread feels slightly heavier and denser. Most refined flours are fluffy and light. As a general rule of thumb, if you can roll it into a ball and it melts in your mouth it usually contains refined flour. Whole grains have a better mouth feel, are higher in fibre and have to be chewed a little more. The signature taste of a whole grain is often described as a pleasant “nutty” taste.
