Summary
This wholemeal pitta bread is made primarily from wholemeal wheat flour, which is a positive aspect due to its higher fiber content compared to refined flour. However, it contains calcium propionate, a synthetic preservative, which slightly detracts from its overall healthiness. The product is moderately processed, which limits its score despite having a relatively clean ingredient list.
