Pages: 1 SPELT Bread...one for Heather?       #113690 - 10/18/04 03:43 AM Edit Reply Quote Tim G Reged: 08/07/03 Posts: 95 Loc: NSW, Australia Hi Heather Sorry to have been away for a while; things have finally settled down and, whilst I still have occasional bad days I am a lot more in control and am certainly a lot happier. I have a question for you though, there has been a lot of press in Australia recently for Spelt bread which is supposed to be a return to the old ways of making bread and touted as good for things like IBS, as it reduces wheat intollerences etc; have you heard of it? is there anything to it? I have sent the attached link to one of the more recent stories. http://seven.com.au/todaytonight/story/?id=16402 It's certainly a very nice tasting alternative, and hasn't caused any problems, but is quite espensive so I'd be interested in finding out whether there is anything to the claims. I promise I will check in a bit more in the future. Thanks and best regards -------------------- Tim -A poor man's Jamie Oliver...without the attitude!
