This probably does not qualify as a crime against humanity, but it is certainly an atrocity.

I am on a low carb diet and it is either no bread or a decent tasting low carb version of bread. This recipe was listed in the forum "Baking for Special Needs".  I would prefer to make and eat artisan bread, but I needed to lose 50lbs.  So far, with the help of this bread and other low carb recipes I am half way to my goal.  I hardly think that is an atrocity, but you are certainly entitled to your opinion.

Just curious to know is that soury smell Carbalose flour or the wheat protein isolate ?  Good texture but nasty smell.  I'm having it as a sandwich with chicken and cheese thinking all that might mask it, but its as strong as it was when I made it last night !
