Many multigrains have very little fiber, and the first ingredient is flour or wheat flour. Whole wheat should have the first ingredient listed as 'whole wheat flour'. Take care of your body. It's the only place you have to live.

But as was already suggested, read the label, because there are some great multigrain breads out there that are made with multiple types of whole grains as well.
