I found this and thought you'd all enjoy it!:
*More than 98 percent of convicted felons are bread users.
*Fully HALF of all children who grow up in bread-consuming households
score below average on standardized tests.
*In the 18th century, when virtually all bread was baked in the home,
the average life expectancy was less than 50 years; infant mortality
rates were unacceptably high; many women died in childbirth; and
diseases such as typhoid, yellow fever, and influenza ravaged whole
nations.
*More than 90 percent of violent crimes are committed within 24 hours
of eating bread.
*Bread is made from a substance called "dough." It has been proven that
as little as one pound of dough can be used to suffocate a mouse. The
average American eats more bread than that in one month.
*Primitive tribal societies that have no bread exhibit a low incidence
of cancer, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's disease, and osteoporosis.
*Bread has been proven to be addictive. Subjects deprived of bread and
given only water to eat begged for bread after as little as two days.
*Bread has been proven to absorb water. Since the human body is more
than 90 percent water, it follows that eating bread could lead to your
body being taken over by this absorptive food product, turning you into
a soggy, gooey bread-pudding person.
*Newborn babies can choke on bread.
*Bread is baked at temperatures as high as 400 degrees Fahrenheit. That
kind of heat can kill an adult in less than one minute.
*Most American bread eaters are utterly unable to distinguish between
significant scientific fact and meaningless statistical babbling

for those in the know (the first ingredient has to be whole wheat), and rye bread, and my favorite sour dough rye bread. But only in small quantities, not that often. I feel better, but thats because of all the weight I've lost (still need to lose a fair amount yet).
