Rusk
Rusk is a dry, twice-baked bread used as a crunchy snack or a long‑life bread substitute in many European and South Asian cuisines; varieties include zwieback and biscotte and it’s commonly served with spreads or used for teething and toast-like applications. It provides about 4g of fiber per 100g, so while it contributes some bulk, it’s not as fiber-rich as many whole-grain alternatives. Because it’s a processed, shelf-stable baked product, it tends to be relatively low in antioxidant phytochemicals (polyphenols and carotenoids) and is generally a modest source of protein and micronutrients compared with less-processed whole-grain options.
