As I recall, they found white breads to be cheaper and more nutritious than wheat bread. I think the artical indicated(implied) that bran in whole wheat bread tends to tie up some of the nutritional value (vitamins and minerals) somehow. It is probably worth looking up the article as it compared many brands of bread including white and whole wheat amoung other types. They also included a home-made white bread (with recipe) in their sample. The later did well on all counts; cost, nutrition, and taste. - Charlie Ball
