The exception is bakery breads like French or sourdough...which sounds really tasty right now! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/wheat-or-white#post-2495191 Tue, 15 Mar 2016 11:53:24 +0000 oliviaoblivia 2495191@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Brown everything.<br /> I miss carby white bread but have grown accustomed to 12 grain bread. It's all the kids have known. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/wheat-or-white#post-2495156 Tue, 15 Mar 2016 11:31:19 +0000 Ms maths 2495156@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A mix, mostly following the parent preferences. So we eat multi-grain sandwich bread, multigrain pancakes (we have a great muesli pancake recipe!), a mix of brown and white rice, white pasta and couscous, and a bunch of other grains for side dishes (quinoa, farro, barley, etc). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/wheat-or-white#post-2495126 Tue, 15 Mar 2016 11:02:24 +0000 KT326 2495126@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We buy the Dave's Killer Bread (Good Seed) because LO will actually eat the crust on that one. For pasta I buy veggie pasta, we don't really eat pasta that much because LO doesn't like it, we also don't eat much rice. When I bake (or make pancakes) I use whole wheat flour. I don't think it tastes that much different. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/wheat-or-white#post-2495121 Tue, 15 Mar 2016 10:58:00 +0000 avivoca 2495121@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wheat everything, but white pasta. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/wheat-or-white#post-2495117 Tue, 15 Mar 2016 10:57:06 +0000 gingerbebe 2495117@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS isn't really into sandwiches yet so he doesn't eat a whole lot of bread. On that front, we tend to eat whole grain.</p> <p>Rice, we eat 50/50 white and brown, sometimes with some black Japonica mixed it. Mostly because I like sticky rice and brown rice isn't as sticky. If its jasmine or basmati, then its all white.</p> <p>Pasta is white.</p> <p>Breakfast foods like pancakes and waffles are still white, mostly because I buy the frozen kind.</p> <p>I try to make up for it with other whole grain sources, like oatmeal, whole grain cookies and snacks, brown rice cakes, homemade popcorn, adding whole wheat flour, oatmeal, flaxseed meal and chia seed meal to baked goods. </p> <p>But DS is such a light eater, I really just want him to eat anything! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/wheat-or-white#post-2495050 Tue, 15 Mar 2016 09:58:00 +0000 winniebee 2495050@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I only buy wheat bread so it's all they've ever known - except if we have a baguette or something. I don't buy wheat pasta though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/wheat-or-white#post-2495047 Tue, 15 Mar 2016 09:56:47 +0000 lovehoneybee 2495047@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wheat/multigrain bread, white everything else (occasionally wheat pasta, but not often). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/wheat-or-white#post-2495043 Tue, 15 Mar 2016 09:56:05 +0000 tinyperson 2495043@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>wheat/multigrain only, unless the in-laws are around.

Pasta, bread etc...</p> <p>We tend to eat a lot of white pasta and bread (store bought and homemade) but I just picked up whole wheat bread and they actually ate it. I actually prefer white bread, rice, pasta myself but that's just more of a craving thing. </p>
