Even so, its still difficult to avoid sugar in normal foods like bread. Even the nicer bread brands still have some amount of added sugar and I can taste it
Have you tried whole grain breads from brands like Dave’s Bread? Those don’t seem sweet to me. That said, my friend who grew up here and then moved to Europe told me that our sandwich bread would be considered cake in Europe.
Yes I have tried whole grains and they still taste sweet to me
As an American who has only eaten bread in the USA, Canada, and Mexico, I can’t really relate. I always buy the breads with the least sugar in them, and that’s good for my pallet, but I haven’t been to Europe yet - unfortunately - so I can’t compare. I do agree with you though that sugar usage is excessive here, which leads to me being meticulous about reading nutrition labels for both myself and my dog.
