Density 40 · +0 vs Baked goods median

Italian bread scores 40 of 100, a Fair rating, ranking 32nd of 60 in Baked goods. It matches oatmeal bread's protein showing with 19% DV protein and adds 19% DV iron, both good-tier marks for a plain white loaf.

This is the crusty, open-crumb loaf used for garlic bread, sandwiches and bruschetta rather than everyday sandwich bread. An ounce (28 g) provides 9.49 g protein and just 4.69 g sugar per 100 g, but the loaf runs high in sodium at 618 mg per 100 g, the highest of the breads in this batch.
