About Bread, cracked-wheat
Cracked-wheat bread uses whole wheat flour combined with coarser cracked wheat kernels, giving the loaf visible texture and a slightly nutty bite. The cracked wheat contributes fiber above what plain white bread offers, and the protein level is reasonable for a sandwich bread. Carbohydrates dominate, as expected, but the fiber content makes this a notch better than highly refined options. Holds up well to robust fillings like deli meats or sharp cheese.
