Live Self Sufficient

When I say bread I don’t mean money, I literally mean bread. Have you ever made your own home made bread? If you have made your own bread you would know that after two days maybe three, it goes stale. Have you ever bought bread from the store? Do you know how long store bought bread is good for? It can last for two weeks or longer. Isn’t that just a little disconcerting?

Same basic ingredients are used to make bread be it at home or by a large company accept when made for mass production and sold at your grocery store, it last two weeks thanks to the addition of preservatives and chemicals. These preservatives introduced to the bread do nothing good for you as far as nutrition or health but are applied help the bottom line of the company. Bread that lasts longer on the shelf of the store make more money for bakers as less waste and products going pass their must sell date.

This is why you should do it yourself, especially if you have a family who will go through a loaf of bread in a few days anyways. You won’t have to worry about the short time to go stale and in the end you will save money and be healthier for it. If you think it is a long time consuming process and do not want to get involved buy a bread machine. Bread machines will take you little time, just set it in motion and come back when it is done. Still better then the store bought bread.
