Overall Rating: 2.5/5
Summary: ah, this bread was very grainy but not in a good way. It was difficult to swallow at times. It wasn't very flavourful and was missing the complexity that my usual non-gluten-free breads have (e.g. ACE Bakery) but it didn't taste horrible. It had a slightly slimy taste but it didn't taste rancid or spoiled. For 100 calories, each slice is very, very small and the nutrition isn't impressive. I won't be buying this bread again.
Where to buy: Fortinos
Ingredients: water, gluten free flour mix (potato starch, whole grain brown rice flour, potato syrup solids, guar gum), potato flour, flax seeds stone-ground, sunflower oil, salt, gluten free yeast.

So the ingredients are fine -- no issues to report. But...the nutrition is lackluster. There's only 1g of protein and 2g of fiber and scant amounts of iron and vitamin C. Nothing exciting to report.
The texture was missing some fun! There were no bits of crunch or chewiness or nuts or anything. It was very plain. It was also kinda tough and this made it difficult to eat without a drink at hand. The flavour was equally unimpressive. There was no heartiness, savouryness or sweetness. It was simply an average bread.
I definitely wouldn't buy this again.
