I was introduced to Spelt in my search for a whole grain bread that tastes good. Our local Publix store sells spelt bread in the freezer of the Greenwise department. It is the best bread I have found. It tastes like homemade bread, and my family (who would prefer to eat white bread if I gave them that option) likes it as well. The spelt bread that I get comes from Berlin Natural Bakery in the Amish country of Ohio. They have a great web site (berlinnaturalbakery.com) that has a page which discusses the history and benefits of spelt flour. The main things I like about spelt is the mild taste, lack of pesticides, and higher nutritional values compared to whole wheat flour. I plan on ordering some items from the Berlin Bakery website so that I can try more spelt products. They carry a variety of products such as breads (including sprouted breads), buns, noodles, cookies & crackers. They also sell the flour.

Spelt products tend to cost more than wheat products due to a variety of factors, but I think its benefits outweigh the extra cost. Read about it on the Berlin Bakery's website and give it a try. I think you will like it.
