David Wright is a baker, writer and presenter. This thought-provoking book examines bread and its role in society and the economy, its impact on health and the environment and industry challenges (which is particularly strong and draws on Wright‘s own experiences with his family bakery). I wanted more on how gluten intolerance decreases when “proper” bread is eaten and Wright constantly repeats his credentials but it definitely held my interest.

iread2much Have you watched Michael Pollen‘s documentary or read the Omnivore‘s dilemma? They both had some good information on why “good” bread gluten is better for human digestion 😊 1d
