Ok I admit it - I love white bread! I know it's bad for you, it has little fibre and the manufacturer has leached out most of the goodness before it goes in the oven - but there is still something wonderful about two slices of fresh clean white bread wrapped around your rashers of bacon on a Saturday morning! Kingsmill 50/50 lets you have almost all of that "white bread" taste but salve your conscience about the health issue. __Appearance__ The packaging is a brightly coloured plastic bag, as with most sliced bread. It's clearly labelled 50/50 but is very similar in colouring to Kingsmill's "great everyday white" loaf, so if it's ...  Read the complete review

In our house we have me who likes wholemeal bread and my partner who likes white bread but some weeks we only get through one loaf of bread between us and while it's always nice to feed the ducks in the winter it is a bit of a waste in the summer to have bread left lying around that goes off. With that in mind we started looking at the half and half bread to see if we liked any of them and one that we've tried is Kingsmill 50/50. Kingsmill 50/50 says on the bag it is white bread but if I'm honest it looks more brown than white so if you were planning on buying this to sneak wholegrain into kids they will spot this straight away! It contains no bits however ...  Read the complete review

Kingsmill 50/50 Bread Description: Manufacturer: Kingsmill / Type: Bread If you haven't heard of his bread before, it contains 50% wholemeal flour, which in theory, should make it 50% healthier than white bread! Mrs Assasin is trying to make us convert to brown bread, which she loves. Unfortunately, I am a bit of a white bread fan, so we compromised and tried this loaf, which we bought from our local Morrisons. An 800g loaf cost us £1.40. The bread comes in a yellow and purple wrapper with the Kingsmills logo and 5050 on the front so is quite easy to recognise. I didn't actually realise that this bread contains half your ...  Read the complete review

As a family, we go through several loaves of bread every week, but like most families, we all have different tastes and preferences. My husband and I both love fresh granary or seed topped wholemeal breads and although the children like the taste of these breads, they often complain about the "bits" and are reluctant to eat such products. Because I would prefer them to eat wholemeal bread, I decided to compromise and I bought a Kingsmill 50/50 loaf, as this looks like an ordinary white loaf but claims to contain the goodness of brown. I purchased a medium sliced 800g Kingsmill 50/50 loaf from Asda, priced individually at £1.30 or you could buy two ...  Read the complete review

Now normally, i must admit i do have a definate preference for baked instore bread over this type of pre-packaged bread. This being said, sometimes you just fancy the simplicity of a few pieces of ready sliced bread toasted, yum. Being pre-sliced does mean that i don't end up with the aftermath of bread crumb mess that results when i slice my own, it really is that bad. Anyway, when such occasions arise when i fancy a bit of sliced bread, or the bakery stuff is unavailble, this 50/50 loaf by kingsmill is my number one choice. Its slightly different to your standard loaf of sliced bread, containing a combination of 50% white flour and 50% whole grain. The idea ...  Read the complete review
