Results of the poll:
obviously this wasn't the best simple random sample (I'm taking stats okay?) but I still find the results interesting. I kind of expected the "I prefer wheat bread but I eat both" section to be the biggest, but I was surprised to see that the next largest section is "neither, I don't eat grains at all". WHAT?! I thought I was the only one!! haha, seriously though, maybe more people follow the paleo or primal diets than I thought. Very interesting. I'm glad to see that there were only a few responses for "ew wheat bread is nasty, I eat white".
However, according to research I've gathered from several different sources, wheat bread isn't exactly all its cracked up to be. Gluten, in fact, is considered to be a big offender to health by much of the nutrition/fitness world, not just those who are allergic. And in case you didn't know, there's just as much gluten in wheat bread as there is white. More on this later...
Anyway, thanks for participating! It's always interesting to see what different people believe/practice when it comes to food and health! :)
