Summary
This classic sourdough loaf is made with unbleached enriched wheat flour and whole wheat flour, which provides some nutritional benefits. However, the use of enriched flour indicates a moderate level of processing, and the presence of added vitamins and minerals suggests it is not entirely whole grain. The product is processed, which limits its potential score, but it avoids harmful additives and seed oils, maintaining a relatively clean ingredient list.
