Hey Everyone, so I just wanted to share this pita bread I found at my local grocery store (up here in Canada). Here it is:
Haddad Bakery High Protein Pita Bread
For 1/2 Pita (28g)
calories - 50
Fat - 1g
saturated - 0.1g
cholesterol - 0g
Sodium - 150mg
Carbs - 8g
Fiber - 5g
sugars - 0g
Protein - 5g
ingredients: water, Bran, Wheat Dry, Wheat, Gluten, Vital, Whetpro 75, 250207 Special whole wheat flour (bagged) cc, Fiber, Oat, 300-58, Yeast, Active, Dry, Oil, Canola, No Shrink, Salt, Calcium Propionate.
Those are the nutrition values and ingredients. The color of the bread is dark, resembling whole wheat. Is this stuff a good choice? is it truly whole wheat or is there any ingredients in there that I should stray away from? thanks all.

Found it at Nofrills in london ontario. The bakery is in Toronto though (haddad bakery). If you can't find it maybe give them a call and ask if they supply to any grocery stores in your area. I know the Mr. Pita (pita Gourmet brand) bread that we can find almost anywhere here in canada also has a protein pita similar but the haddad one has more protein, less carbs, less calories, more fiber and less sodium. Win on all levels.

Cost is the same as my regular pita. But my regular pita has more calories, more carbs and less fiber. Now I have the benefit of having less calories and carbs, more fiber and protein while already adding protein to it (I had already planned on adding chicken breast or greek yogurt or both to this). This just ups my protein intake and lessens my net impact carbs intake.

nomnomnom indeed. Lately been craving greek food (not sure why, i'm portuguese/chilean). I made a sort of Chicken Gyros with this. Threw in some diced tomato, red onion, iceberg lettuce, slice of ff cheese (normally gyros don't have cheese but I love cheese), sliced grilled chicken breast and topped it off with about 3 dollops of Greek yogurt (substitutes for the tzatziki sauce quite well with a bit of dill and lemon juice). My favorite pre-workout meal since... ever.

Yeah man, practically the same, mine is 100 cal but 10g protein. After that gyros I'm thinking of trying a pita pizza. use some ff cheese, hot salsa (to replace the tomato sauce cause that's all I have in my fridge right now), diced onion and tomato, spinach, and some grilled chicken breast... maybe some diced ham...topped off with some dry pressed/curd cottage cheese (to give it a feta cheese taste/feel). My Pre-workout meals have never been so delicious.

Interesting. I've never examined the pita breads at No Frills all that closely. I'll have to check it out next time I'm there.
“Go back?" he thought. "No good at all! Go sideways? Impossible! Go forward? Only thing to do! On we go!" So up he got, and trotted along with his little sword held in front of him and one hand feeling the wall, and his heart all of a patter and a pitter.”

Sounds kind of like Joseph's pita, which can be found at Walmart here in the 'States.
I live off this stuff, regardless if I'm dieting or not. It's a really solid product.Upgraded from "curls for the girls" to "rows for the hoes".
