You're far better off eating the wheat that it came from than eating bread at a restaurant or buying it at the store.

The wheat by itself is a little too gritty. But seriously, you have to eat a ton of bread for the sodium/sugars to be a bigger factor than just the mass of carbs that convert to blobs of fat.
Once I dropped the really excess weight, I allowed myself to eat bread a couple times a week and it hasn't done a thing. And I never stopped eating rice, just ate less.
