Rye bread may also contain wheat.
There are guiding principles in food law for bread and small baked goods. They are not binding, but many manufacturers adhere to them. There it is recorded:
“If a single bread grain is mentioned in the description of the bread or small baked goods, then this is at least 90 percent contained (e.g. wheat bread or rolls, rye bread, spelled bread or rolls, emmer bread or rolls).”
So when a bread is called “rye bread,” 90 percent of the flour is said to be rye and up to 10 percent can be other grains.
