Weight Watchers Whole Wheat Bread
By: | Mar 1, 2009
Arnold Bakery Light Wheat Bread has been rocking my world lately, but I'm still always on the lookout for low-calorie, delicious bread - they say variety is the spice of life. When I saw Weight Watchers 100% Whole Wheat Bread, I decided that it was worth trying - mostly because it had the Weight Watchers name associated with it, and I was eager to compare it to my beloved low-calorie, high-fiber bread staples. And the 11-serving loaf was $3.99, only $0.10 more than the Arnold brand.
Oh, this Weight Watchers bread was deliciously yum 
. Each sizable slice was pleasantly wheat-y and soft, and the bread was perfect for PB&J and grilled cheese alike. I liked this brand even more than the Arnold bread, as the slices seemed bigger and softer. I bought the loaf on Monday and used it throughout the week for fresh, tasty sandwiches and French toast (breakfast, lunch, and dinner!), even using the ends for a sandwich so as not to waste anything. Yes, it was that good.
Each 2 slice serving (41 grams) of Weight Watchers Whole Wheat Bread provides 90 calories, 1 gram of fat (none of it saturated or trans fat), 7% of the daily value for sodium (180 mg), 6 grams of protein and 17 grams of carbohydrates including 5 grams of fiber (20% of the DV) and 2 grams of sugar. There is also 10% RDA of calcium, iron, and folic acid, along with 6% RDA for thiamin and niacin, in each serving.
I think this is now my favorite low-calorie bread, and I definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a yummy, healthy bread fix.

Thanks for the review on this! I have been tempted to try it. I am so sick of 35-40 calorie breads that are so flimsy they can't even hold up for a sandwich, and rip apart when I try to spread PB on them. This bread sounds like it stacks up.
It definitely stands up to my PB&J! Let me know what you think :)
I use Healthy Life bread, but it's so small! It's flimsy, just as Emily was talking about. I'll have to try weight watchers.
does it have hfcs in it?
Yeah, what are the ingredients like?
I'm always on the lookout for low-cal bread, but I try to limit my processed food intake.
Ezekiel owns my bready heart and soul, but two slices is sometimes tooo much for me.
If this WW bread isn't too chemical, it's an amazing find!
Agreed! This is my favourite low cal bread!
he ingredients are whole whea flour, water, wheat gluten, HFCS, sugarcane fiber and inulin.
