Our daily bread...
I usually select French bread for sandwiches. When it's not available, Cuban style bread is my second choice. Sunday, I tried something different. I'll categorize it to be hand-made bread and not the ones typically produced by machines.Already cut in 1/2" slices, darker in color, harder in texture, I toasted 2 slices with butter and the flavor was really tasty. Three hours later, I had indigestion that required antacid and a glass of sparkling water.
Tuesday night, I tried one slice dipped in soup... again, I'm up in the middle of the night drinking sparkling water to make the 'bubbling in my stomach' go away.
I'm thinking it has to do with the yeast the bread was made from. Not a totally new experience, I've had that with Rye bread (made from scratch) at the Publix Bakery and learned to avoid some of their products.
Another cup of soda water and it's off to bed!

I almost only eat 100% whole grain bread and have never had the experience, that you are having. Perhaps you have a reaction to one of the ingredients, or perhaps the bread was either cut on surfaces, or with a knife, that was not sanitary. You'd be amazed how many food handlers do not understand microbiology.
