Arnold Select Sandwich Thins Scare Me!
Posted by admin in Food, Healthy Eating on July 13th, 2009
I am digging the Arnold Select Sandwich Thins, but one thing that scares me is I bought these like 3 weeks ago and I see ZERO signs of mold. I mean, yeah, good these things last, but on the other hand, what the hell is in the ingredients that don’t cause these things to mold up?
I guess I am used to buying shit from Whole Foods that barely lasts 2.3 days - LOL. Too bad these Sammich Thins can’t be organic. I really wish there were better options for organic breads. Seems like organic bread is usually dry and not tasty…I need to research some more options…
And I just had a random thought: Will mold grow faster on white bread or wheat bread?
Healthy Snack? Arnold Select Sandwich Thins - Seedless Rye
Posted by admin in Food, Healthy Eating on June 16th, 2009
I was shopping for sandwich bread, excited to make a Dagwood sandwich for dinner, and I came across Arnold Select Sandwich Thins.
I copped the seedless rye. It looks promising. Thin, 100% whole wheat, 100 calories a serving and 5 grams of fiber. (20% of recommended daily intake.)
See, I am down for any kind of bread that can boost my fiber intake, while being low in calories, and THIN. I am not a thick bread kind of cat. And even better, the bread is supposedly pretty good for grilling an toasting. And a hot, grilled sandwich is the truth.
Anyway, I made my first sandwich on some simple shit - Salmon burgers and grapeseed oil, vegetarian mayonnaise. I grilled the bread in the pan with my salmon burgers and kept it quick and simple. I think a jailhouse iron would have been just as good as the job I did, in regards to grilling the bread. HA!
Bottom line is, this was a quick and dirty attempt to make a sandwich, and it came out ok. I wasn’t putting any heart into hooking it up, and the salmon and mayonnaise angle may not have done this bread justice.
I need to try something more classic - Like a ham and cheese, grilled on the Foreman grill. THAT might be a test worth checking out!
