Massive Sola Review - Bread, Bagels, Buns - Including Glucose Testing

Of all of the "keto friendly" or "low carb" breads I've tasted over the past few years, Sola bread has rated as one of the top ones - however, I've only tried their supermarket breads/buns. In this video, I test out their internet store products, including two types of breads, the hamburger buns, the hotdog buns, and the everything bagels. I also perform some pretty extensive glucose testing experiments.

The products in this review were provided for free on the condition that the manufacturer agrees that I will do a fair and honest review.

I appreciate how comprehensive your review was. As a type 2 diabetic, I am very careful about the processed keto products that I consume. Your reviews have helped me make more informed choices, and I am so grateful!

This 100% mirrors my experience. I used to LOVE the sola bread and buns that came in the "grocery store" style packaging. Now my store only contains the new packaging. I could tell within an hour of eating it (both the bread and the buns) that I wasn't feeling "in keto" like I was with the old style. Having done keto for 4 years now I can usually tell when something knocks me out, and the new bread is a no go.

The T-shirts! Made my morning! Danger Piñata, trash panda, duck puppy (lol). Danger noodle (I call it a nope rope) fart squirrel.bwahaha. Stab Rabbit. Murder log. I came for the bread. I stayed for the t’s. Thanks for the fun!

While I really enjoyed the premise behind this video, your shirts were the actual star of the show 😆. They were awesome!

Thank you for your hard work, great reporting, and I didn't even notice the camera focus was off!

[kellinalaska]

Thank you for what you do! You Save me a bunch of time and money doing your tests. Appreciate you 🤗

Man this bums me out. Sola used to not spike my blood glucose. Loved their bread for a while too. Had no idea they changed the formula when they changed the packaging. Had just told my wife I thought the buns tasted better than they used to. Thanks again for the video.

I can’t believe you put yourself thru more major CGM testing like that, but I love you for it! (Thank you) Very Interesting results, especially with the frozen products. 🤔

Thanks for taking one for the team, again! Would love to see a review of a Sola bun VS your homemade ones!!

[roweboy]

Steve you are a rock star for putting yourself through this for pursuit of knowledge! Thank you very much!

The biggest surprise to me is the different formulas for direct to consumer versus grocery stores.

How many folks would dive into the ingredients after noticing a different glucose response.

Fantastic research Steve! Thank you for being the canary in the carb mine for all of us.

I like the Sola sweet oat bread best. Thanks for reviewing all.

[GrandmasHappenings]

Sola is my favorite keto bread. A couple weeks ago our local Walmart had already transitioned to the new formulation (what you call the internet bread) and increased the price by almost $2 per loaf. With the price increase and a noticeable change in the ingredients I decided not to buy it at the time. As a type 2 diabetic and based on your testing, I'm going to have to go back to making Maria Emmerich's egg white bread. Even though it tastes like Styrofoam, at least it doesn't affect my blood sugar. Thanks for testing this!

Going to keep bread in the freezer - for occasional use. TY for this Steve.

[ginacurry]

Wow, such a great thorough review! I see this bread all the time, but have yet to take the plunge since I'm still in the weight loss phase. Thanks so much for all you do!

[beatrizceniceros]

Thanks Steve for testing all types of breads for us. I eat it once in a while toasted only. I had a tuna sandwich on toasted bread and it was delicious. I try not to eat to much bread and I’m used to it now. Bread is too feeling. I make my hamburgers with lettuce, as a wrap.

Another thorough analysis, thanks for the great review Steve! I know this is your body and not mine…but your inner geek is very appreciated by my inner geek ❤

[timboehm]

I love these glucose testing videos- so helpful!

[MadsaxBrewery]

This is my favorite brand. I store it all in the freezer. They recently changed the look of the packaging (My Walmart carries the new look package now) Also they say the bread is now "Breadier" in the new look. The bagels are a once a week breakfast treat for me. They cost to much to eat every day anyways! Love your test videos.

[cathywoofter]

An absolutely thorough review of Sola products. Really interesting results! I plan to try freezing the bread I like to see what effect that has on it! Thank you for the time and effort you put into thus video. No go work out and lose the pounds that you gained!😊
