That's disappointing. What's the logic in that?

 

I don't know, but the ingredients are:

WHEAT BREAD Enriched flour (flour, malted barley flour, niacin, iron,

thiamin mononitrate, riboflavin, folic acid), water, whole wheat flour, high

fructose corn syrup, wheat gluten, contains less than 2% of the following:

wheat bran, yeast, salt, soybean oil, dough conditioner (acetylated tartaric

acid esters of mono-and diglycerides, ammonium sulfate, calcium sulfate,

ascorbic acid, azodicarbonamide, potassium iodate, amylase (enzymes)],

cracked wheat, sodium stearoyl-2-lactylate, caramel color (contains

sulfites), dried honey preparation (honey powder, invert sugar, wheat starch

soy bran flour, silicon dioxide [anti-caking]), mineral oil. Contains soy

and wheat.

Aargh! Enriched flour is always a problem and the fact that corn syrup is the

fourth ingredient is also bad - both from a general health perspective. Guess

I'll cross them off the list, not that I eat there so often. Really, it's not

so much wheat bread as glamorized white bread.
