    I don't like white bread, simply because it's bland. sourdough is my go to. If you want a "healthier" bread go for something with grains in it. In the end though they're all much of a muchness

    I feel the same way about white bread being too plain. I do eat it sometimes. Recently I discovered these herb ciabatta buns at the Walmart bakery, and they're so yummy. I've been eating sandwiches on them every day for a week, lol.

    I would join the group saying go ahead and eat the white bread!

    However, if you are wanting some suggestions of new bread type things to try for your work sandwiches, you could give wraps (tortillas), panini bread or pita bread a try!

    I'm sorry you guys must think I'm silly lol. I thought white bread was bad for you, someone told me it's the worst kind for you
    It's not "bad" for you. It's not as nutritious as 100% whole wheat bread (with minimal ingredients), but no, it's not "bad" per se.

    If you don't like 100% whole wheat, don't eat it. :smile:

    I prefer whole wheat bread, personally. But not everyone does.

    Well, even though that's what I thought it was, it still looked yummy. I wonder if that's a bad thing? Reminds me of this episode of Friends where Joey says "is it okay if I still think it looks delicious. " :)

    I prefer wholegrain bread myself or any bread with pumpkin or sesame seeds in it but sometimes you can't beat an oul slice of fresh white bread toasted lashings of butter melted with a big mug of tea. Yum I just can't eat it too often as I get bloating and stomach cramps but now and again its worth it.

    Sometimes I buy those make your own bread just add water packets as well as water I add my favourite fillings such as raisin and walnuts or sun dried tomatoes, have them with my favourite home made soup delish!

    As everyone has said everything in moderation, balance is key and once you are in your calorie goal you won't go far too wrong.

    Enjoy your bread :)

    I've cut down because it isn't worth the calories to me. Ham, vegetables, and cheese are great in an omelet, or you can wrap up brick cheese in deli meat.

    But like everyone else says, there is nothing wrong with it, you will lose weight while eating it as long as you're in a deficit, and sometimes you have to throw out things people tell you or that you read in Women's Health.

    Here are some other ideas for an alternative lunch without bread:

    When I make a hamburger at home I actually use mushrooms instead of sesame seed buns, anyway
