Default Bread???

Anyone found a decent white bread [ie without tons of sugar in it] I used to like Kingsmill.

We gave up looking, bought a bread machine and now make our own.

The Lounge, might not help, but have a search in the US forums here and you should see some recommendations that might be a bit more helpful

Welcome to BE though!

Give up. The Italian one is ok for toast. Otherwise give up. Learn to like wholemeal.

Most American bread is decent. Not sure what the problem is.

Agree with the suggestions for sourdough. Other than that, look towards the in store bakery. The bread there sometimes has less sugar added. I quite like the Safeway famous bake house 7 grain. Doesn't have corn syrup added at least.

Are you buying pre-packaged sliced stuff in the bread aisle? If so, find a supermarket with a bakery and try some of the specialist breads -- my personal favorite is a ciabatta with olive oil and roasted garlic.

a) I was not intimating that I had
b) What difference does it make either way?

Default Re: Bread???

Thank you all for your suggestions. I do have Italian bread sometimes and also French. Some sourdoughs are good, others not so. I keep buying a different sliced loaf each week, usually try one slice then chuck it. Will keep trying.
Thanks again though.

Albertsons do an English toasting loaf which is the closest we've found to British bread. There is also a brand called Potato Bread and that's less sweet too.
Or buy a decent breadmaker.
