One of the reasons I make a trip to Marks & Spencer is to pick up a loaf of their Wholemeal High Bran bread. Unfortunately, on my most recent visit, the shelves where High Bran should have been, were empty. Rather than leave with no bread, I decided to grab a Wheatgerm loaf instead.
M&S Wheatbran bread is a 400g loaf made with Hovis flour and enriched with wheatgerm. It's thinly sliced giving each slice a calorie count of just 50 calories.
Although the slices are small, the texture of this bread is quite dense and chewy which helps make it seem a bit more substantial. It has a slightly nutty taste which personally, I find tastes better when toasted.You can find M&S Wheatgerm loaf in larger Marks & Spencer Foodhalls.
Suitable for vegetarians.
Nutrition Information per slice: 50 calories, 2.2g protein, 8.1g carbohydrates, 1.0g sugar, 0.7g fat, 0.2g saturates, 1.0g fibre, 0.19g salt.
4 daily visits to M&S Prestatyn and no wheatgerm bread. Come on M&S you can do better than that.
ReplyDeleteI have been trying to find it, but I have been told they have stopped the line, disgusting of them, love their Wheatgerm bread.
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately, this happens. I've lost count of how many of my favourite breads have ceased production. It's so annoying I agree. I spend ages searching other supermarkets for something similar.
ReplyDeleteCome on M ans S . This is perfect bread. Have been told in our store they have stopped making. Shopping elsewhere
ReplyDeleteI emailed m&s about this bread a couple of months ago and was told they weren't making it anymore, then lo and behold it was in the stores again! Now it's gone again! What's going on m&s????
ReplyDeleteSo sorry this is still happening. I now find the best thing to do, when you have a favourite bread (or anything) is to have a backup. This is because eventually, when you're relying on someone else to make the food, one day they will stop :-(
DeleteI think it was madness to stop selling, this small lovely loaf!!! Who ever thought of it, get you fingers out, and start selling them, in all shops again!!! For people with small appetites, it's the ideal loaf!!!!
DeleteThis was the only bread I enjoyed and so disappointed that I can't find anything similar
DeleteDoes anyone know the recipe for this bread? I would like to try and make it
ReplyDeleteI am so disappointed with M&S this is only bread I really like, I know lots of people who miss it I hope they can see these messages and start stocking it again.
