The history of Bread dates back to 10,000 years BC when the first simple bread was made with water and flour. In 3,000 BC the Egyptians were the first to bake leavened or raised bread. We each eat an average of 150 lbs. of wheat flour a year. Wheat is primarily made up of complex carbohydrates which provide a source of time-released energy. Since 1990, the U.S. Dietary Guidelines have recommended that Americans eat 6 to 11 servings of bread and other grain foods every day. |
