I loves me some carbohydrate fanfare. Don’t you? Too bad it makes my stomachs poke out and my fat cells bulge real big. Hence, the reason I choose my carbohydrate moments very carefully. The carb has GOT to be of fine-tasty quality and totally worth the chewing.

While I was shopping at the ghetto grocery store because it was near where I was headed (…to the ghetto??), I spotted some Pepperidge Farm Multi-Grain Artisan Rolls. They do, indeed, rank top notch on my carb-o-meter. Pepperidge claims the rolls are made from the “finest ingredients”, which I’m inclined to believe from the greedy tastiness.

These crusty on the outside; warm and soft on the inside (frozen) dinner rolls go from oven to Food Trap in about 8-minutes flat. But make sure there’s ample storage in your stomach chamber, because you WILL desire more than one.

The roll has and all-star blend of wheat germ, wheat bran, bulgur wheat (and more), plus flax seeds so big they wave hello. And there’s plenty of nooks and granny panties crannies for the melted buttery goodness to seep in. These could easily be sold in a lazy-azz bakery or restaurant, and people would be fooled into giving compliments to the baker.
