Packaged white sandwich bread that isn’t sweet?

[Anonymous]

Does this even exist?

Even the sourdoughs I’ve tried are sweet.

I’m not a fan of rye, and while pumpernickel works for sandwiches, I hate sweet sandwich bread for PB&J.

Help! Is there a packaged white bread that genuinely isn’t sweet?

I've found that the Canadian White style bread is heartier and a *little* bit less sweet. It definitely holds together better for a grilled cheese.

Just get whole wheat bread. Many "whole wheat breads" are not really whole wheat, but a white bread with some wheat germ mixed in it.

Only about 3-5 actual whole wheat ones offered nationwide.

I like Dave's Killer White. Only 2 grams of sugar per slice.

Just saw this for the first time the other day and wondered if it was worth trying.

Most of the breads in the US would qualify as cake in Europe, because they are so sweet

I eat the multigrain one Fresno love it. The kids occasionally eat the white bread. It’s pricey but has a fair amount of fiber and protein too.

It's easy and far more healthy to make your own. Cheaper too.

This is an urban legend spun out from one chain restaurant’s bread.

OP, my Aldi sourdough has no sugar at all. Where did you get that sourdough?!

OP here— I bought Pepperidge Farm Italian loaf and it is nearly perfect.

I recently started reading ingredients more carefully. And now I make my own. I didn't find a single commercial product that isn't loaded with sweeteners and chemicals.

So I make two loaves on the weekend, and freeze one right away. A homemade loaf, carefully wrapped, lasts 3-4 days at room temp.

Let's put this one to rest oh so European posters. It's getting a little tiring saying our bread is cake.
