Guest guest Posted December 12, 2008 Report Share Posted December 12, 2008 I believe it is stated on the label of Nature's Own bread that it is not bromated, which is the reason I buy that bread. But if your grocery store has a bakery, their stuff may be bromated. I shop at Ukrops and they have a fabulous bakery, but I noticed on their pizza dough label they use bromide as a conditioner.

Guest guest Posted December 13, 2008 Report Share Posted December 13, 2008 I started to read the labels too, Pepperridge Farms does not use bromine in it's products. I don't know if it's all their bread or just some types, so far what I bought does not contain bromine. Also I just read that Gatorade and Mountain Dew/soda also contain bromine. > > > > I have read many articles on the web and people writing about all > > bread is tainted with bromide, so I decided to find out for myself if > > they do.

Guest guest Posted December 13, 2008 Report Share Posted December 13, 2008 they often use "bromated iodine" and also hide sugar and high fructose corn syrup. linda rn Re: Bromide in bread I started to read the labels too, Pepperridge Farms does not use bromine in it's products.
