Logging Rye Bread: what to know

USDA's portion is one regular slice of 32 g, so a thick bakery slice weighs more and is best weighed. Rye reads 5.8 g of fiber per 100 g, against 2.3 g for white bread. Rye loaves range from light to dark and seeded, so a bakery loaf may sit away from this standard entry.
