How Healthy Are Burnt Toasts And Buns?

Hi, I don t eat toast regularly, but when I do or when I eat hot cross buns, crumpets, etc. I always like to eat them properly cooked with a good covering of blackness over the surface. I have always wondered if I was doing myself any harm eating burnt toast, etc. Is it healthy or is it really bad for me.

Hi.

I am happy that you ate thinking along healthy ways of life.

Bake products containing glutens and preservatives should be avoided. Its not bad to eat good roasted toasts etc but if you eat only burnt carbon, you are only filling your guts with junk.

Better to adopt coarse grain products, leafy veg and fibers inside such buns etc.

Hope my hint suffices for your curiosity.
