We have two other @UKRI_News Transforming UK Food Systems projects https://t.co/Yo2erNaxes looking to make white bread healthier, one through fibre-enhanced white flour, the other through pulses - see Raising the Pulse here: https://t.co/IlgYsOwWgk

[Pallab Ghosh @BBCPallab]

Here’s a plan to make sliced white loaves to be as nutritious as wholemeal. The researchers are adding small amounts of other grains to the flour mix with the aim of keeping the fluffy white taste and texture of white bread the same. https://t.co/M3W4UdFSzs
