Getting one's alpha, beta, and Omega - Sara Lee Style

Recently we had used Michael Pollan's book "In Defense of Food" in one of our classes. Mr. Pollan confronts the field of nutritional science and the products its generates.

Today Sara Lee came out with an announcement that should sandwich all Omega-3ers.

Sara Lee to launch Omega-3 bread - Chicago Breaking Business: "Downers Grove-based Sara Lee Corp. plans to launch a new bread made with Omega-3, which the company says is the first nationally distributed bread of its kind.

Omega 3 are a group of essential fatty acids found in certain plant foods, oils and fish. They have been linked to good heart and brain health.
Sara Lee will introduce Omega 3 through its Soft & Smooth line of breads, which are aimed providing more nutrition than white bread, but with a white bread texture. Soft & Smooth contains 30 percent whole grains."
