Welcome to our group!

Yes, I very much agree. It's frightening to find out
what is in some of the stuff that typical American
supermarkets and many restaurants are serving us.

One of the shocking things that I learned from the
WAPF conference this year, is that, if an ingredient
is considered an "industry standard" it doesn't have
to appear on the label of the food item. So for
example, many commercial ice creams contain propylene
glycol (the same chemical used in antifreeze) but it
doesn't show up on the label. I was really annoyed by
this, having spent years carefully reading and
interpreting labels.

Anyway, I'm glad you're here. Have you tried any of
the bread recipes in Nourishing Traditions (NT)?
