Thomas Light Multi-Grain English Muffins
A half-muffin has 12 total carbs, but a full 4 of them come from fiber, which means that I count just 8, and that makes it very do-able ~ yippee!
They toast up perfectly, and can be found at most any store, as well as in my freezer.
INGREDIENTS: Unbleached Enriched Wheat Flour [Flour, Malted Bailey Flour, Reduced Iron, Niacin, Thiamin Mononitrate (Vitamin B1) Riboflavin (Vitamin B2), Folic Acid], Water, Modified Food Starch, Yeast, Wheat Gluten, Fiber (Soy, Sugarcane), Polydextrose, Farina, Cornmeal, Toasted Corn Germ, Natural Flavor, Preservatives (Calcium Propionate, Sorbic Acid, Potassium Sorbate), Salt, Cracked Wheat, Rye, Grain Vinegar, Whey (Milk), Leavening (Monocalcium Phosphate, Sodium Acid Pyrophosphate, Baking Soda), Datem, Malt Extract, Ground Corn, Soybean Oil, Dextrose, Cellulose Gum, Brown Rice, Oats, Mono- and Diglycerides, Xanthan Gum, Ethoxylated Mono- and Diglycerides, Soybeans, Triticale, Barley, Flaxseed, Millet, Sucralose, Sodium Stearoyl Lactylate, Citric Acid, Sodium Citrate, Natamycin (A Natural Mold Inhibitor)
Things I wondered about and had to go look up:
So, what the heck is Sugar Cane Fiber?
It is said to have insoluble fiber properties, speed bowel transit time, and contribute to the multiple fiber "matrix" for healthy colon function, as well as assisting with the mechanics of digestion. (There is no sugar in sugar cane fiber.)
And how about this “Datem”?
Datem is just an emulsifier primarily used in baking, to strengthen dough. It is an acronym for Di-Acetyl Tartaric Ester of Monoglyceride.
