Mestemacher Pumpernickel, 17.6 Ounce Units (Pack of 12) It ain't what I remember, from when I emigrated from good ol Germany in 1976. But it is still better than the caramel colored abomination the bakers over here try to peddle as "pumpernickel". Even though it is a far cry from the real westphalian stuff that used to be baked long and slow with the maillard reaction providing the sweetness and caramelization and not some bottle from the laboratory. <br />Nevertheless, the real stuff from a german noble bakery probably fell victim to industrialization, like so many things in this world. Schade. <br />It will still give you a pleasant source of fibre in your bread, but real Pumpernickel it ain't, more like a very heavy KOMISSBROT. <br />Kuechenmeister Kuntze. Reader Reviews This stuff is absolutely delicious toasted! Here is how you eat it: toast it 2 or 3 times on the high setting in your toaster watching it carefully until it just caramelizes on the edges, not burning it. Then put butter on it which dissolves beautifully when it is very hot and sprinkle with a little Splenda or your favorite jam. It's out of this world! And, 7 grams of whole soluable fiber per slice. Four slices of this and you can quit for the day, it has so much fiber. I have it for breakfast every day that I do not have steel-cut oatmeal. That way I start the day off with my fiber. Fiber has the ability to suck up 15% of the fat in your diet. It's like natural Alli Weight-Loss Aid, Orlistat 60mg Capsules, 90-Count Starter Pack (prescription Xenical) without the pricetag. Brenda Watson and her book The Fiber35 Diet: Nature's Weight Loss Secret has a whole line of fiber products that Amazon carries. She should just adopt this bread and put it into the diet instantly. McCann's Steel Cut Oatmeal, Traditional, 28-Ounce Tins (Pack of 4) has much more fiber than regular oatmeal. You just need to soak it overnight or cook it an extra 5 minutes. |
