Health is in the eye of the beholder

Most consumers still perceive tortillas and flatbreads to be healthier than regular bread. However, if they compare product labels, some tortillas and flatbread may have a greater amount of fat, salt and calories per serving than traditional bread. That’s simply because of the density of these products, which are often hot or cold pressed and don’t contain the airiness of sandwich and specialty bread, buns and rolls.
As a result, many producers such as FGF Brands focus on simple, nutritious ingredients for its clean label products. The Toronto-based bakery’s popular Stonefire naan is made with an authentic recipe, including buttermilk and ghee. When baked in the patented tandoor tunnel ovens at high temperatures, it creates the signature bubbles and chars of an authentic naan. Additionally, the bakery strives to provide value and entertainment with its Stonefire brand.
