Soy Bread Now On The Market

Soy Bread Now On The Market FARM HOME Food 28-6-30 Researchers at Ohio State University have accomplished something no one else has been able to do: create a patent-pending process that uses 52 percent soy in a 2-lb. loaf of bread without it having a "beany" aftertaste. Healthyhearth bread may be coming to a grocer near you soon. It's already on the market in Columbus, Ohio. Cory Ballard, president of Bavoy, Inc., the company that markets the bread, says it has a similar texture and flavor to Brownberry Natural Breads. It also doesn't "go bad" as fast as other breads. "It'll last around 14 days and then it molds before it stales," he says. Although made of soy, it's not a low-carb bread. It does come with the FDA's heart-healthy claim, which reads "Diets low in saturated fat and cholesterol that include 25 grams of soy protein a day may reduce the risk of heart disease. The bread sells for $3.79 per 2-lb. loaf and comes in original soy, soy multigrain, and soy cinnamon raisin.
