Why do I get an aftertaste after eating Ezekiel Bread?

Question

How are they baking it to give it such "unique" flavor?

Ezekiel 4:9-12 KJV

{{BONSAI}}

LOL lol lol. 8^P

Answer 1

Those are digestive enzymes (yes you have them in your saliva if you have not cancelled them out by adding Meat and Bread) --- Meat requires Acidic digestive enzymes, Grains require alkaline enzymes. remember your chemistry class. An acid ph less than 7 and Alkaline from 8 to about 15. Acid of 4 plus Alkaline enzyme of 10 equals 14. 14 divided by 2 equals 7 - which is neither an acidic or basic (Alkaline) enzyme. --

So normally you do not taste any enzyme.

Ezekiel bread without meat produces an alkaline enzyme and that is what you taste. -- It is a good thing.

edit: Ironically fresh fruits and veggies come with their own digestive enzymes and they are neither alkaline nor acidic, even though day old oranges and grapefruits taste a little acidic, they are not.

Am I going to spend the rest of the night answering this question? I forgot what the question was?

Edit:

Hello Bobby, how is it hanging?

Answer 2

Ezekiel bread is different in flavor because the grains used to make it are sprouted before they're used, whereas with most bread, the grains are used in their unsprouted form. Because the grains in Ezekiel bread are allowed to sprout first, it gives the bread more of a vegetable taste to it since you're not eating ground seeds, but ground plants (in this case, seedlings).

Also, Ezekiel bread-- at least the stuff you buy in the store-- is made with a variety of different sprouted grains, not just wheat, as most grain is. This also affects the final flavor and texture of the bread.

Food For Life, the company which markets Ezekiel bread commercially, has an information page which may explain why the flavor of the Ezekiel bread you're eating is different than the flavor of "regular bread". You can find it here:

Oh, and if you want another interesting taste sensation, try manna bread (also known as Essene bread). It's essentially unleavened Ezekiel bread, but the texture is remarkably different. Most stores which carry Ezekiel bread will carry manna bread, but they may have it in a different section of the store. You can read up on it here:

Answer 3

Did you take it out of the plastic wrapper before toasting? LOL

I used to get the Cinnamon flavored Ezekiel bread and found it to be much more flavorful than the plain.

((DR G.))

EDIT I believe that the bread is made from sprouted grain rather than mature whole grain and is yeastless,which would also account for the different taste.

EDIT part 2....I think that possibly,"Son of Uncle" may possibly subscribe to the alkalarian vegan lifestyle,as well?

Answer 4

carole, I've had it, but it was not in the freezer section. Probably a different brand? I thought it was a little too coarse, but would make a great hot ham and grilled cheese sandwich. I didn't eat it to feel 'holy'. That would be funny to me. I was curious.

Answer 5

Did you ever stop to think its " 'cause Ezekiel saw the wheel, way up in the middle of the air"---and maybe its axle grease?

Answer 6

Ooooooh!! Eziekiel bread is gross!!

Maybe they put bible pages in it. You never know with fundies.

Answer 7

perhaps Ezekiel was bitter.

Answer 8

Not an aftertaste, afterLIFE baby!

Answer 9

It must be the kosher wheat/grain they use.

Answer 10
