You'd have to check with the bakery to be ABSOLUTELY SURE, but with about 98 percent certainty you can figure that starter consists of flour, yeast, sugar, and water. Maybe no sugar, but probably sugar, but not very much, and the yeast eats it up. Most starters (almost all) do not contain dairy, though MY starter often contains "potato water" or water left over from boiling spuds. This is not likely with the bread your DB bought, but it would account for the "heaviness" (spuds do that to bread).
