The molecular mobility in low‐moisture (<9%, web) white bread was studied as a function of temperature using pulsed‐proton nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), and dielectric and dynamic mechanical spectroscopies. The water was mobile, even in glassy samples. Different processes below glass transition temperature (sub‐ T g ) were observed, and a relaxation map of the studied system was drawn. These results have been interpreted and extrapolated to suggest that the T g is not a universal predictive parameter for the physical stability of glassy food.
