    This video is the result of hours and hours of work and I want to thank you for that. My takeaway is that the seeded bread is the best in general since I don't eat burger buns much.

    I have to chime in in agreement with everyone else as to how much I appreciate all the work that you put in to your videos. I'm also glad that you use these products the way you would normally use them. the dry bread tasting, or however a lot of times they get tested doesn't really give us a good answer of how it's going to affect us in everyday life. I really appreciate you, and I am glad that you're sticking in there with us. stay as safe as you can, God bless!

    FYI - Each of these tests was done in a fasted state where my glucose had been stable for several hours, with a blood sugar in the mid 90s or lower. Timing on the test varied a bit from day to day depending on when I felt hungry and when I could film (based on the availability of the kitchen).

      I'm wondering if you have a summary drop-down with all of the bread you have tested. I'm looking for healthy life which is basically what I have found I liked the best but it's not super low carb but then again I don't eat a lot of bread so I'm going to try one of them you mention that takes the gold card to pay for it. And I have to buy four or eight loaves which is a crazy amount of bread for me even if I freeze it.
      But for quick grilled sandwich I'm using this healthy life white or sometimes wheat. It seems all of them have wheat junk in the ingredients, along with the Whey Protein Isolate. Aldi breads have that weird sponge and taste of air because it doesn't have enough normal bread ingredients in it. So I don't care about testing those brands.
      Just the healthy life, if you haven't already. I don't even know how to quickly figure it out honestly. Which is why I'm asking for a list with links back to your videos.

    This review is precisely the reason I trust your opinion over any other Keto You-Tuber. I will probably never buy the bread, since I enjoy making my own (Diedra's yeast buns and Black Tie's pizza crust are my go-to). But, this level of detailed testing really does help the community.

    Thanks so much for this video, Steve! I’ve been eating Carbonaut bread for awhile now. I buy it at Costco and don’t mind the price at all as I only have a slice a day. My favourite is the seeded bread and I agree with you about the cinnamon raisin. It’s a game changer for me for hotdogs and hamburgers as well.

      I was looking up for keto bread recipes, and in Canadian dollars, it would cost me about $15 or more to make only ONE keto loaf at home using ingredients such as egg white powder or different flours and powders (almond, coconut, psyllium husk, etc.).
      At Costco, it's cheaper to buy this Carbonaut bread that comes in a 2-pack at ~$12.50 or sometimes less! That's roughly $6.25 per loaf! 😃 I usually love cooking from scratch, but I don't want to break the bank either for fancy ksto ingredients. XD lol

    I really appreciate your time & work. I'm type 2. I don't really miss bread all that much - with the exception of pizza crust. I've been making the fathead dough pizza & my family enjoys them as do I. Doesn't have the texture but I add yeast and the flavor helps it seem more like a traditional pizza.
    Thank you for all you do. People have to realize they none of us will react the same as you did - even if we all eat identical sandwiches.
    I'm still learning how my body reacts and I've only been doing keto since March so I still have a ways to go. I appreciate all the information you share. ❤

    I eat the Carbonaut seeded bread, but occasionally - it's just too pricey for everyday use. So instead of having toast with an omelette, I'll just have a side of rutabaga hash browns. (Honest, they're really good) bread is for special occasions, like garlic toast with lasagne. I've tried the cinnamon raisin variety and agree wholeheartedly with your assessment. Tha ks for all the work you do on our behalf, Steve. Youre the best.

    Thanks for the testing Steve. This video reinforces what I have been considering for a while. I believe that the best bread that I can put in my body is some that I make myself. I have a lot to deal with before January 1, so my major bread and noodle making will probably have to wait until next year. I'm gotta try the spherification inspired spaghetti noodles and some PSMF egg white bread to get me through the rest of this year. Hopefully January will give me the opportunity to put on my mad scientist chef's hat.

    Thanks for doing all the testing Steve. I've been eating Carbonaut bread for over a year now. I keep it in the freezer and only take out a piece or two at a time. To have the odd sandwich I just don't care how much it costs. Here in Canada a lot of regular bread is $6.50 a loaf so to pay a couple dollars more isn't a deal breaker for me. I agree about the Cinnamon Raisin bread - it just seems to turn to mush. My favourite is the Oat Bread, which they didn't send you and then the Seeded Bread. I find they both need a bit of salt but that is easy to add. The only downside of the Seeded Bread is that no matter how careful I am I find those little black sesame seeds all over the house for a week. It is so worth it though. I'm going to make turkey stuffing with it this Thanksgiving.

    The best "white bread" we have found so far is Sola bread. We buy it at Costco. But Walmart stocks it in our area now. The Sola sweet and buttery version is great.
    I do what I call the Yawn test. If I eat something and I have a blood sugar spike, after about and hour I will be yawning like crazy. If there is no yawning, then no sugar spike!
    So far this Sola bread passes the yawn test. But, I am always eating it with something, eggs, bacon, sausage, maybe some lunch meat with mayo. You get it. Could be something to the idea of "fat blunt ". (Not the kind of fat blunt you smoke)

    Wife and I tried the white and seeded varieties a few months ago. We both thought it was OK, for "store bought" (comes in a plastic bag type) bread. She is more concerned about carbs than I am. I have been eating a slice of Ezekial bread 2-3 times per week, so 10 carbs added to a meal does not bother me. She was more concerned about the idea of modified starches as ingredients. Me not so much. We bought 2 loafs and decided the price was not worth the convenience. Plus, if we are going to "waste carbs" , it had better taste better than store bought bread. Like Sierra Nevada Ale, for instance.

    Thanks Steve for this eagerly anticipated review of Carbonaut breads. I get all of these from Costco in Canada and is pretty much the only bread me and my wife will eat. We weren't fans of the seeded one but the white and buns are great. We're not diabetic and we don't eat them all the time but when we get the urge for a grilled cheese or a burger, they're good to curb those cravings. I was a little disappointed to see those spikes in your glucose however looks like it doesn't knock you out of ketosis.
    Another "bread" we often eat are Broghies. Low everything even though they are made with popped wheat. Great to eat with eggs or topped with cheese. If you toast and butter them, they smell like buttered popcorn. Would be cool if you could review those :-)

    I like the Carbonaut Gluten Free white bread. It has 1 net carb per slice. Pretty good, but I agree it has a strange kind of “powdery” texture to it. It reminded me of stories I’ve heard of bakers adding plaster of Paris to their bread dough during war times to make it go further. I’m sure this doesn’t have plaster in it, just an impression I get when I eat it. Still, if you are Keto AND Gluten Free, pickin’s are slim.

I am not a big fan of cooking and baking although i have to do it but sometimes it's nice to have this short cut. I had wondered about how clean it would be for me but reading the ingredients didn't seem all that different from other keto bread recipies i have made.

      The problem with keto/lowcarb bread is that the better it tastes, either the worse the ingredients glucose spikes or the more it costs. And like you, a lot of my keto bread winds up turning into breadcrumbs for later use. 🙂

    For starters, I really really appreciate the time and effort you put into testing these breads. You not only had to buy them, but take the time with your software in evaluating all of them for us! So, thank you for that! That said, I did try the Carbonaut bread that I purchased from Amazon ($7.99 I think for one loaf) and the taste & ingredients didn't warrant the price. It seemed flat and a bit chalky to me and I ended up throwing it out today as the 3 remaining pieces had gone stale! The Aldi Keto bread is very good, (1 net carb per slice), but with the wheat flour & gluten, my hands were killing me 2 days later. I learned that I had been gluten sensitive all along but didn't realize it as I have been on Keto since June! I have found that chaffles & homemade buns/biscuits are enough for me and I don't really miss bread at all. I feel great and that is better than any pleasure I get from breads, etc! So any "Keto" bread with carbs like tapioca starch, wheat flour, or gluten isn't really Keto and could trigger a gluten response similar to what I had. BTW, do you still make chaffles?

    Hi Steve, what an awesome video and review. I especially like the glucose testing you did and how eating the bread gave those results. I am not too surprised considering all those wheat and starches in the ingredients. Anything that spikes my glucose is a no-go for me. Can you do a video on the monitors and testing you use. I think I need that in my life. I need to get control of my glucose and lose the visceral fat. You rock, thanks again!

    This was very interesting. I wonder if Dave’s killer bread would have more fiber in it, if the blood glucose response would have been different. 12 g of fiber in the buns is quite a bit, and I wonder if that is really a good idea. Many of the keto breads give me digestive issues when they contain a ton of fiber. I also have the feeling with keto products in general when they stick in a ton of fiber that it’s sort of cheating. I think for many it is better to pay attention to total carbs instead of net carbs.

    Steve, fantastic testing. Very thorough. I especially liked how you tested using how we would actually prepare and eat. Then testing with regular bread was the artificial sweetener on top! Yeah, regular bread does stick to your teeth and roof of your mouth.
    These breads have corn and potato starch so that makes me suspect for the glucose hit anyway. I agree the hamburger fat is helping to keep from spiking which is great. I still have some more of your tortilla recipes to try. I find ones with cheese tend to come out too chewy.
    Thank you for the testing and the recipes. I'll continue to watch and learn.

    I bought the other (4th kind) loaf from Whole Foods in the light blue package that has 1 net gram of carbs. No seeds, no wheat products & hard to find. Liked the consistency but it did taste kind of powdery as you said. LOVED it toasted but it was super expensive. Bought it twice, don't think I'll buy it again I didn't do a glucose test so don't know what it did. I wouldn't try the other 3 purely because of the ingredients.

    I buy Carbonaut bread regularly at Sprouts at 9.00 per loaf which stings. Didn't know Costco has it and I will look for it there. Thanks for your time and effort with the reviews. It is very helpful. Now I wonder if the AlaMadre tortillas would not have spiked if the tortilla was fried in oil and had meat in it. That's how I eat them and they are so good! TFS

    I've been eating for 1 month the Gluten-Free 1g Carbonaut bread w/ my sister on Keto & we love it. The problem is I can't find anyone who has tested this bread on glucose & ketone changes. I'm pre-diabetic & have to watch my insulin spikes especially because i'm trying to lose weight. Does anyone know if it has been tested before? These are the ingredients: Modified resistant tapioca starch, high oleic sunflower oil, native cornstarch, psyllium chicory root fiber, yeast, modified cellulose, coconut sugar, rice bran, xanthan gum, natural flavor, salt. I'm willing to go back to WHOLE FOODS & buy another brand if someone has a better suggestion.

  • @garykitchen6938

    Thank-you so much for this video! It contained exactly the information that I was trying to find out about this bread. I am new to Keto, but I am aware of the the impact of high glycemic index foods, having been on the Zone Diet for several years. It was interesting to see how the fat slowed and controlled the blood sugar increase. This is something that Dr. Barry Sears mentioned in his book years ago, and likened the addition of fat to the scenario as like having an inter-virus drip controlling the rate at which the blood sugar would rise. The fat slowed the rate down significantly. I am lucky to be able to get the Carbonaut Bread at our local COSTCO at a reasonable price. Thanks again!

    I just found this video...I really appreciate your honesty! I'm disappointed in the results, cause I just tried the seeded version and I was blown away by the taste and texture! I was like "This is BREAD?! ACTUAL bread!" Lol...So much better than the experience with the other (just as expensive) keto bread I previously had.
    Well...I mean...I have a whole loaf to enjoy now and not letting it go to waste, but I may need to freeze half of it and enjoy it less often, if it has those kind of glucose spikes and you're more fat adapted than I am...Darn it! Lol 😂

    Thanks, Steve, your really thorough test was super helpful. I've been keto for almost 3 years, and yea, I cheat sometimes. That's a fact. So, spending a little more money to cheat safer than real cheating is plus. And since most keto bread is not that good, and real bread isn't even that fun anymore, I'm happy to know an occasional burger can happen. Can't do it all the time or I'll turn into a blimp, and I know I will need to check things against my own personal response, but if it's actually decent tasting and I can recover in a day...I'm thrilled!

  • @PetiteD

    I was super-excited when you mentioned in your podcast that you'd be reviewing these. As the company is Canadian, I've been using Carbonaut bread for a while. The white for my husband and the gluten-free cinnamon raisin for me from time to time since I am a bit sensitive to gluten. I wish the cinnamon raisin came in the regular version and not just gluten-free because, like you, I'm not the biggest fan of the texture of that one, but I find it tolerable enough and just buy it when it's on sale at my local health food store. I didn't think to test my glucose on this bread but now seeing your review I think I might since I do incorporate it into my diet and use it for breadcrumbs, etc.
    I feel I'm pretty metabolically flexible, so I'm not too worried about the results, especially if it doesn't kick me out of ketosis, but still always good to know how a food affects you. I wish you could get CGMs for cheaper in Canada though. I love testing but don't do it as much since the strips are expensive and the CGMs and exorbitantly priced.
    I still haven't tried the buns yet though but that'll have to wait till they go on sale again.
    Over here on sale I can get the white and seeded bread for about CAD5/loaf and the gluten-free breads and the buns for about CAD8, so for once things are a bit cheaper here.

    I know the glucose tests are (literally) a pain, buy I find them very helpful.
    Also, as you said, own your own results! When you eat a product like this, is there a difference between the glucose response in a person who has been in ketosis for 2 years vs, a person who has just started? Probably. The body adapts and a long term low-carb diet which helps you to heal and clean your liver, will likely be more forgiving when eating the occasional higher carb meal.

    Wow! Steve. I feel this was your best review yet(that ive seen). Very thorough. Funny you did the burger bun and I was like wow you need to put the burger on the white bread son of a gun you did it LOL I love this review because I've had no luck with bread, 4th of July early on doing Keto I tried Aldi keto rolls I buttered them put them on my Blackstone griddle to grill for some smash burgers they wouldn't even Brown it went right in the trash and I said the hell with it and ate regular buns, I'm on a slow and steady Pace to lose 100 lbs so far I'm 67 lb lost, I'm in no hurry because I have a positive attitude after learning from you and others on this UA-cam, so if the breads just a little bad my thought process is it's much better than a regular bun if I go over my 20 g of carbs no worries I'll correct the next day, as far as $6 for a pack of buns or whatever it is I have no problem with that if they're low carb and taste good even if they do Spike the glucose a little bit I definitely want it research where I can buy some of these buns thanks for this fantastic reviews Steve keep up the great work love your channel
