Before learning about UPFs, I thought in-store baked bread was perfectly fine, even considering it better than long-life bread without much thought. However, after gaining awareness about ultra-processed foods, I scrutinised the ingredients and was surprised. Despite its fresh appearance, many loaves of in-store baked bread are far from being non upf bread, containing emulsifiers, treatment agents, and preservatives, deviating from the basic ingredients expected in a freshly baked loaf.
This page is a dedicated to upf free bread options in local supermarkets.
