Bread Is A Dessert
The caloric content of the Snicker’s Bar is much higher, but the rate of the spike in blood sugar is actually slightly lower. The faster it shoots up the more insulin is produced to process it.
There are low-carb breads like Paleo Bread which is made from either almond or coconut flour. If you HAVE to have bread you can order this. I tried the almond variety right from the bag. I found it gooey. I enjoyed spreading peanut butter on it but not really the bread. I decided my sliced apple was a better vehicle for eating peanut butter. Then I tried the Paleo bread toasted. It worked fine but all I got for satisfaction was some crunch.
There are also recipes out there if you want to make your own low-carb breads.
Truth is, we can eat a meal with a knife and fork. We don’t have to carry it around in a tortilla or eat with our hands in between two pieces of bread. So we don’t need those carbs.
Here's a recipe for something you can have instead of that sandwich. These mini meatloaves are delicious and really easy to pack as a lunch.
Now that we’ve had this discussion I’ll leave it up to you.
Cheers,
