    If it fits your macros, and you don't have a gluten allergy...eat bread if you want to. Nothing wrong with it.

    There is a LOT of sodium in store bought bread. Keep an eye on that if you need too. Otherwise whole wheat bread isn't so bad.

    Here is a supported research on the benefits of whole grains (studies at the end) :

    Western civilization was built on bread and the obesity epidemic is a very recent phenomenon. Of course, people used to burn 6,000 calories a day just trying to stay alive.

    This is the best answer yet.
    Unless you have a wheat or gluten allergy, there is nothing wrong with eating bread. If eating bread fits into your daily calorie goals then I wouldn't give it a second thought. The current gluten and wheat hysteria is ridiculous.

    Only about 6% of the population have a specific wheat allergy or gluten sensitivity.
