    It doesn't matter what you eat so long as it fits within your calorie allotment.

    Certain food groups don't make you gain weight. That's complete broscience and not backed up by real science. Eating too many calories makes you gain weight. It's that simple.

    The HFCS especially, but even the white bread, don't provide much satiety for the calories. Yes, if you stay under your calorie limit you will lose weight, but eat too much and you're going to be a lot hungrier than you need to be. Small amounts of treat foods (less than 10 or 20% of your daily calories), is generally considered to be just fine.

    The "hype" for me is I like neither its taste nor the texture it lends to foods, or the elevated degree of sweetness it provides. But that's just me.

    The "hype" in nutrition/diet/MSM circles is whether it has contributed to the rise in obesity or not as its use in foods to near-ubiquity because it is more cost-effective than sugar has occurred during the same time frame as the observed adiposity crisis.

    I've lost weight eating those foods. Don't buy into the hype.

    The issue isn't can you or can't you lose weight eating those things. The issue is are those things healthy for your body in a nutritional way.

    It is OK to eat it as long as you are at a calorie deficit. You can eat it every day if you want to.

    The OP didn't ask about only eating those foods. If they eat them in moderation they can eat them everyday. I don't eat a ton of bread, but when I eat it I eat white bread. I don't like the whole grain types.

    I tend to avoid white bread because it does nothing to satisfy my hunger. Unless it's a really yummy fresh baked specialty white bread, it doesn't taste good enough to warrant the calories (for me). So, I will make exceptions for a fresh baked sourdough or ciabatta or similar, but have zero interest in eating Wonder Bread. But if you like Wonder Bread and it doesn't just make you hungrier, yes, you can incorporate it in your diet and lose weight.

    I eat farmhouse white bread as it has fewer calories than multigrain and I track my fibre so don't need to spend my calories there

    Also white farmhouse makes the best toast

    I learned how to make my own sandwich bread and rolls because I got tired of struggling in-store to read the ultra small print universally used to list ingredients on bread bags in order to pick the HFCS and soy free ones. Let me tells ya, going farsighted (especially when already nearsighted) is a PITA and no tells you ahead of time it is not a gradual process. :/ Actually, I'm learning firsthand these days nothing about the human aging process is as gradual or subtle as they made it out to be in various science-y classes taken over the years. Instead, it's a series of steep decompensating declines with varying individual-specific "time plateaus" between them.
