Best Glyphosate-Free Bread

Lab-tested ranking · Source: EWG, Mamavation, US PIRG, Moms Across America

4 clean breads ranked by lowest ppb

Wheat is frequently sprayed with glyphosate as a pre-harvest desiccant, depositing residue in flour and finished bread products. Whole wheat varieties tend to show higher contamination than refined white bread because the bran and germ — where pesticide residue concentrates — are retained. Mamavation's 2026 testing found glyphosate in the majority of non-organic bread brands. The picks below are the cleanest bread we found, ranked by glyphosate level (lowest first). Each has been lab-tested by an independent third party.
