Processed white bread is bad. People haven’t been eating refined grains forever. The more we have refined certain foods, the more it has created a offset problem.

Yeah but they’ve been eating whole grain bread since forever and it’s 60 to 70 percent as bad as white bread in terms of effect on blood glucose.

And while people haven’t been eating white bread for nearly as long, they’ve been eating it since well before the fairly recent problems of obesity, diabetes, etc. Which indicates to me that white bread isn’t the problem.

So what? It is not for you or the government to tell me what to eat. If I want to eat something unhealthy, let me eat it, no matter the consequences. I have a mother; do I need another?
