We make most of our bread but nothing is better for French Toast then grocery store white bread.

I don’t eat bread. Shrug.

But if I did eat bread, I’d buy the best that I could find to suit the task. Often, for me, that would be that rye bread from Germany that looks like a brick, and they sell that at the grocery store.

It’s kind of sad when someone has to bolster their self worth not just by consumerism and denigrating strangers, but by focusing their shallow efforts on bread. I’m reminded here that one does not live by bread alone. OP, do you have any thoughts on jam, butter, or hummus that you’d like to share?

Who makes their own when you have a Martha to do it?

OP tried to prove to everyone how above it all and cultured she is, but only proved she’s a commoner.

American bread SUCKS. It sucks sucks sucks!!!

No, I'm not talking about your local bakery bread, but the typical mass produced bread in the bread aisle you get a your typical grocery store chain.

American bread just has a weird texture and god awful taste because it is absolutely loaded with high fructose corn syrup. It's also insane how much sodium is in bread made in the US. Just two slices of bread might have almost 20% of your DV for sodium intake. A pita bread from a package would have nearly the same level of sodium. It's absurd.

If you go to big bread making countries like France, Italy, Etc. they never eat garbage bread on a regular basis like Americans do.

I tried making my own bread during the pandemic and quickly discovered the problem with that. It's so delicious that we immediately ate it all up. We ate a ton of bread. It was so delicious and we gained weight. So I stopped doing that.

My mother told me the same thing, she started making her own bread when she first got married and had to stop because it was too delicious.

What if I don't want toast? Just plain bread?

Fresh bread is better than frozen bread. That's easy.

OP, your way is better for you but it's not better for me.

I think I read the freeze immediately and toast as needed on here and it's amazing. No longer a rush to eat fresh bread and it doesn't get mediocre after the second or third day.

You are so dramatic OP

It "grosses you out?"

I reserve that word for trypophobia triggers.

I mean who even does there own shopping? That’s for peasants.

We have no such bakery close to us and store bought is good enough for us.

because it might be a luxury to make a separate trip to a bakery just for a loaf of bread? Why do you care where people buy their bread?

We buy a loaf of two of fresh sliced bread from our neighborhood bakery and freeze it immediately. Then just toast the slices we want to use throughout the week. But every time I'm in a grocery store the bread section is MASSIVE. It sort of grosses me out. Why buy that crap for $3 to 6 when a good bakery loaf is maybe $5 to 8?
