Things you wish you could say

[BigBlueHen53]

For the loaves of bread I find in the store, if the package says "100% whole wheat" in big letters, the ingredients do not list other kinds of flour. If exceptions exist, I have not seen them (and yes, I have looked. I look at the big label and then I check the ingredients before I decide about buying it.) I have assumed this was caused by the laws about how things must be labeled, but I do not know that for sure.

For recipes online, I could easily believe any combination of terms going with any kind of bread.

Then I am misinformed, thank you.

I honestly thought the same thing. Maybe we're thinking of whole grain?

I’ve held this in for a while lol. If you post a question and I have to read twelve paragraphs about how you named your bird poppi and about his parents and cousins and how it follows you to the mailbox every other Friday I’m not going to make it through your post. Just get to the point about what’s wrong with your bird. I don’t care if the coop was painted blue last July or if your neighbors cat crapped in your flower bed.

@BigBlueHen53 I would be interested in some of your bread recipes. Do you have a post somewhere on here with some of them?

We are of the same mind.

When someone's taking time out of their day to try and help you, and you follow up with a Queen of Melrose meme-style response... c'mon. Respect people's time and stay on topic.

I thought I was the only one! I was afraid everyone would tell me I was a jacka**

I'm honestly a pretty patient person, but it bothers me quite a bit when someone's presenting something as an emergency. Do you want help for your suffering animal, or do you want to shoot the breeze? Because we have other forums for that where I'm more than happy to indulge you!

Of course I'd never want to hurt someone's feelings, but it drives me nuts (and it makes me reluctant to want to help in the future.)

Thanks for your interest! Tomorrow I'll post my favorite 33% whole wheat bread recipe on my thread, hang on, I'll post a link!
