Description
Dense, slightly tangy rye with a hearty, chewy crumb and crisp crust; slices hold up well for robust sandwiches like Reubens or pastrami, and toast evenly for savory toppings. Reviewers often cited authentic, bold flavor, aroma, and sturdy texture, while some noted variability in slice thickness and occasional dryness reported.
Why it's not GERD friendly
- citric acid
- grain vinegar
citric acid
Dietitian noteCitric acid, a common food additive, is a known GERD trigger due to its high acidity, which can directly irritate the esophagus. It can also weaken the lower esophageal sphincter, allowing stomach acid to flow back up and cause heartburn. Furthermore, even small amounts of citric acid can significantly increase stomach acid production, worsening reflux symptoms.
