You Asked Sara Lee Listened, No High Fructose Corn Syrup Bread #Giveaway

by 342 Comments

Sara Lee S&S 100% Whole Wheat and Whole Grain White Last year I went to the nutrition summit with Sara Lee. There I learned about nutrition and feeding my family. I don’t believe that High Fructose Corn Syrup is bad for you, but I know from going to that event that it is an important factor for many of my readers and very close friends. Some of them will not eat food that has high fructose corn syrup added. Sara Lee heard your cries as well and now makes white and wheat bread without high fructose corn syrup. The major difference that I noticed was how soft the bread was. I’m sure that has nothing to do with anything, but it was something I wanted to be sure to mention!

Same great taste in my opinion!

Sara Lee Soft & Smooth Made with Whole Grain White Bread is now a good source of fiber and contains 10 grams of whole grain per 2-slice serving. Also, Sara Lee Soft & Smooth 100% Whole Wheat Bread now gives consumers vitamin D, as well as an excellent source of calcium and whole grain with 26 grams per two-slice serving.

IMG_4337 Sara Lee sent me two loaves of bread so that I could try it out. They also sent me a Bento box with a coupon for another loaf of bread. These are both for me to donate to charity. I’m quite excited about using it as a donation and that I got to see what exactly get to giveaway to one lucky reader.

  1. I know it is not good for you and seems to be in all of the foods you should not eat but sometimes you just need a little bad stuff.

  5. I see high fructose corn syrup on the same level as sugar. In moderation, it’s not going to hurt. But if you don’t need it, don’t use it.

  11. I try to avoid it as much as possible, but I’m not a fanatic. I’m not totally anti-high fructose corn syrup, but if there’s an easy way to avoid it, then I’ll do that.

  19. I am not a fanatic about it but if I have a choice I’ll usually by the version without HFCS. I think it is not good for us to be consuming so much of it. Most things can be made without it so if we ask for it producers will start providing it.

  24. I think it’s not healthy. Recent reports indicate that it may cause or contribute to pancreatic diseases especially cancer.

  190. I try to avoid high fructose corn syrup. I think it is easy to forget unnecessary stuff in processed foods if they are not names that are easy like “sugar.” I always buy bread without HFC, so it is good to hear of another choice.

    Reply

  203. I avoid HFCS just as I avoid white sugar- it may not be as bad as all the hype, but I know that sugars wear down the immune system. I prefer to get my sweets in the form of fruits!

    Thanks for the chance to win 🙂

  205. I think…that I can taste the difference between HFC and regular sugar. Its most noticable to me in beverages and I don’t like that.

    Reply

  206. I think high fructose corn syrup is bad, especially when it’s in products that were sugar free to begin with. What happened to bread being just flour, water, and yeast (with maybe a little salt and oil)?

    Reply

  213. I think all foods should stop adding high fructose corn syrup in their products because I believe its causing the spike in childhood obesity.

    Reply

  216. I think high fructose corn syrup may be getting a little too much hype but at the same time I do believe that it is in too high of a concentration in too many products and tend to look for those with less or none.

    Reply

  218. i prefer to buy things without high fructose corn syrup when possible but if i cannot find an alternative then i will buy the product anyway

    Reply

  227. I think high fructose corn syrup should be consumed in moderation. You find it in alot of foods and drinks now. Sorry but it sure does make soda taste real good.

  252. I think the recent spate of commercials negating the ill effects of High Fructose Corn Syrup are causing people to put their health at risk….we are such suckers for TV misinformation. Thank you. 🙂

  253. Not a big fan of High Fructose Corn Syrup but think a lot of the alternatives aren’t that great either. What ever happened to plain old sugar.

  266. I haven’t any bad feeling about high fructose. I know we do way too many additives and preservatives in out foods and should try to eat more natural base products. Thanks for the wonderful giveaway

  277. I think all things in moderation are fine. It is each person’s own responsibility to monitor what they eat and how much of it. However, I am all for the movement by companies to provide healthier products.

    Reply

  317. We try to avoid HFCS when we can but there are some products that I can’t find good substitutes so it is still a part of our diets.

    Reply

  323. I don’t understand why HFCS is necessary in so many of our foods. I think there presence is unnecessary and if any sweeter needs to be added, it should be sugar.

    Reply

  325. I don’t seek it out, but if there isn’t too much contained within, I’m fine with it. Old saying rings true: Everything in moderation.

    Reply

  329. I have heard recently about how bad high fructose corn syrup is. I don’t know if it is true but I am going to avoid high fructose corn syrup as a precaution.
