This here is a list of ingredients from an elementary school lunch. Look what we are feeding children. Michael Pollen said if your grandparents wouldn't recognize it as food, you probably shouldn't eat it. Oh...and by the way, this is the "recipe" for peanut butter + jelly.
By the way, one of the funny details about this PB Jamwich Thing, aside from all the ingredients, is that it has NO CRUST. Yup. Bread without crust...it's like fruit without seeds...oh wait, I think we make that, too. Here's the thing. Crust is an essential part of the whole bread making process. Just like seeds are a natural and essential part of fruit. So getting rid of it is just plain weird. Will we raise a whole generation of kids who can't eat crusts?

Even though the main ingredient is "white whole wheat flour" I don't like the sound of some of the other stuff in the jamwich. Take azoidicarbonamide -- it rhymes with cyanide. While maybe the bread isn't poison, the line between healthy and unhealthy should be drawn just this side of things that rhyme with poison.
