Review of 'Dimpflmeier' 100% Rye Bread with Flaxseeds

Dimpflmeier' 100% Rye Bread with Flaxseeds (vegan)
Overall Rating: 4/5
Summary: okay, so I'm fairly new to rye bread...and I love it. I can't get enough of the savoury, tart, sourish taste. Who woulda known!? I really like the denseness of it and it's really very filling. I enjoy toasting it and pairing it with cheeses and meats (or cheese and meat alternatives). Smoky flavours are awesome with this bread. Go buy this! The only thing to watch out for is the high sodium content.

Where to buy: Foodland, Dimpflmeier Bakery Onsite Retail Store, Freshco, Metro, Sobeys, Fortinos



Ingredients: Organic Rye Flour, Natural Spring Water, Sour Dough (Organic Rye Flour, Natural Spring Water, Bacterial Culture), Organic Flaxseeds, Salt.

I love when the ingredients are kept to only two lines :) ...just 5 ingredients! *And* it's an organic product. The nutritional profile is just okay...unfortunately. One slice is 110 calories, which is a little high compared to other breads like Stonemill. And, the sodium content is verrry high for just 1 slice. If you make a sandwich, you're up to 420mg of sodium and that's without the spread or deli/cheese slice. That's going to add up quite a bit. The fiber and protein content isn't great...I prefer it to be at least 3g. And there are no significant vitamins/minerals to report. For these reasons, I wouldn't buy this bread regularly. Perhaps once in a while when I have a rye bread craving. But if sodium is not a cause of concern in your diet, then by all means, enjoy!
