What it is

Bread is a common food made by baking a dough of flour, water, and usually yeast. It has been a staple food for thousands of years in many cultures around the world. The basic process involves mixing ingredients, kneading, allowing to rise, and then baking.

Why it's used

Bread is primarily consumed as a food itself, often as a side dish, or as the base for sandwiches and toast. Manufacturers use bread as a key component in prepared meals like sandwiches, frozen French toast, and various appetizers. It provides texture, flavor, and carbohydrates to these products.

Health notes

Bread is a food product and not regulated as a food additive by the FDA. Its nutritional content varies widely depending on the type of flour used (e.g., whole grain vs. refined). Whole grain breads provide dietary fiber, which is beneficial for digestive health. The Dietary Guidelines for Americans (2025-2030) recommend making at least half of your grains whole grains.

Allergen info

Bread is most commonly made from wheat, which is one of the nine major food allergens identified by the FDA. Individuals with wheat allergies or celiac disease must avoid wheat-based bread.
