A collective of artisan bakers, millers, and wheat-breeders have banded together to produce a community loaf that follows guidelines established by The Bread Lab. The goal is to produce a whole-grain loaf of sliced bread at a price that will appeal to a mass audience.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/blog.macrinabakery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Bread_Collective_Logo-2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4024\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.macrinabakery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Bread_Collective_Logo-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"750\" height=\"732\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The criteria laid out by The Bread Lab are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Baked in a tin and sliced<\/li>\n<li>No more than seven ingredients<\/li>\n<li>Contains no non-food<\/li>\n<li>At least 60% whole wheat\u2014preferably 100%<\/li>\n<li>Priced under $6\/loaf<\/li>\n<li>10\u00a2 of every loaf sold returns to The Bread Lab to support further research of other whole grain products<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The goal is to provide an alternative to the commodity loaves made from white flour or laced with preservatives produced by national bread companies and that dominate supermarket shelves.<\/p>\n<p>As a long-standing member of Bread Lab\u2019s advisory board, Leslie immediately got to work on an approachable loaf.
