Sport Whole wheat or pumpernickle?

[shellsy21]

Which bread is better? I always thought, the darker the better?

The pumpernickle bread in this country is just colored bread. Whole wheat is better, but even better is sprouted grain & seed bread. I buy "Genesis" from "Food for Life" in the health food store.

Really?

And here I thought I was making a good choice! I was actually eating it as a bagel. So a whole wheat bagel is better? Also is eggs on a bagel better then on a whole wheat wrap?

I don't think it matters if it is a bagel or wrap - it's how much you want to consume. Try the new whole grain white bread, like four different companies make it now.

Im gonna say it depends on the brand. Whole wheat can be better or worse. If it all possible, post the nutritional labels and ingredient lists.
