Ever since my post on the problem with bread manufacturing, I’ve bought a few more loaves from different manufacturing plants and I tested the waters making my own.

I am happy to report that making allergen free bread by hand is not particularly difficult, it’s just time consuming. I made a Whole Wheat bread that the family liked a lot. But, I don’t have time to just whip up a batch during the week. It’s just too time consuming when you work full time.

So I am making a few calls to Pepperidge Farms and  Flowers Bakeries of Thomasville GA  to find out how they handle food allergens including sesame. And my investigation of bread machines continues.

I spent my first year out of college working as a newspaper reporter. And it occurred to me that I am trying to report my way out of food allergies here. More on that another day!
