Which sandwich bread type do you prefer? I personally prefer wheat, with lots of grains and stuff because white just tastes too plain and boring.
-
i like my bread just plain, thank you.
-
I think wheat tastes slightly better, too, especially when it's used as toast.
I would actually use to eat single slices of wheat bread out of boredom when I was younger.
-
As I said in #tmk...
I use white when I eat peanut butter sandwiches. And when I say "sandwiches", I mean taking just one slice of white bread, and smearing chunky peanut butter all over one side, and eat it like that. No other slice to close it, no jelly (IMO, jelly is disgusting).
I use wheat when making turkey sandwiches. Wheat goes better with turkey, I guess....
-
I prefer white. Wheat just tastes weird to me.
My taste buds prefer droll things normally.
-
White bread is evil and bad for you.
-
Well, Deezer is feeding me wheat bread. Wheat bread, in my opinion, taste better than white.
-
I enjoy both the taste and health benefits of wheat.
-
I've always been forced to eat wheat bread, but I will eat white whenever I can. Wheat is still good.
-
I like the health benifits of wheat bread along with LD. Also, my school used to make their grilled cheese and PB&J on half wheat half white. I was thinking to myself "Make up your mind!" because they tasted really weird.
-
Wheat rawks.
-
I'd have to guess that Deezer has his own kind of bread, baked in some secret underground bakery. It would be specially made to be easily force-fed to somebody.
Anyway, I have to go with white bread. I could never stand wheat's texture.
-
Some people have siliac disease which is where you can't eat wheat or gluten because that increases your chance of stomach cancer. I have two friends that have it and they think i have it too but I actually don't, so I just pretend I do, even though I haven't been tested or anything. I don't like to eat bread much anyway, because one time I got all these white spots on my back and around the border of my face from too much yeast in my body, but that was like six years ago.
-
I like both, but I prefer wheat.
-
whoah there's alot of wheat-eating healthnuts here.
-
Uh... you know why they created white bread? It was so the rats would quit eating the people's bread. They took out the food part of bread and left behind the junk parts so not even vermin would eat it. White bread isn't nutritious, it just gums up your insides. And it tastes nasty.
-
Well, I don't get any good bread, just generic-brand. No Sarah Lee, no Wonderbread, just generic. The wheat bread tastes better than white bread, in my opinion. However, it's not as plyable, meaning you can't make my world-famous GIGANTIC BALLS OF BREAD with wheat.
But I prefer Evil Bread myself.
-
What about white wheat? It's actually good. BTW, I voted for wheat. We eat wheat, whole grain, and/or white wheat here. Wheat wraps are okay, but I prefer the soy/flax/wheat wraps.
-
I'll only eat wheat bread, preferably the heel/end and/or toasted.
I never have liked the taste of white bread.
-
Hmm, I am a fan of both, but push comes to shove, I'd take potato bread.
But I chose white. I really love the butt and head of the load. Those are the best parts.
-
I prefer wheat to white, but I'd prefer oat bread to wheat bread, or even better, multi-grain bread. It's moot since I almost never have sandwiches.
-
As long as it isn't caramelized white bread (or white bread), I like it. The grainier the better.
-
I really love the butt and head of the load. Those are the best parts.
LOL! Now that's my kind of typo.
I also eat a lot of 100% whole wheat english muffins.
-
What can I say, I am the reigning typo king.
-
I really like both. The crust on white, tho, is better (in my opinion). However, i do know that wheat bread is better for you.
-
My favorite is rye bread, but I didn't see it as an option on the polls.
I usually buy Peppridge Farm rye. Seedless is my preference, though I'll eat any multi-grain bread no matter what.
I also like wheat. And I can't stand white. When I have frankfurters or bratwurst, I will buy the whole wheat buns. I also insist on the wheat hamburger buns. The only time I eat white bread is if I am out and the bratwurst, hamburger, fish sandwich, or frankfurter comes on a white bun. Even with a fish sandwich, I often will take the fish off and eat it with a knife and fork--the fish sandwich buns are usually much too doughy for my liking.
There is also a bread at the Bravo Italian restaraunt which is quite good. It's not white but isn't wheat either. It comes in sort of rectangular cuts, if anyone knows what I'm talking about. This bread is quite good, especially with butter. I'm not sure of the name, though.
And speaking of preferences, since I for some reason cannot seem to post a new topic in this forum, I will ask here what sort of lettuce they prefer in their salad. I like everything except iceberg. The leafy dark greens and the purple-colored lettuces are my favorite. Buy the European or Italian salad mix at your grocer, they should contain this.
-
I like dark lettuce, so I guess that means I'm going with Romaine. Also, I like grain bread, but I'm with SushieBoy: People who ditch white are kind of weird (unless they are at least in their 30's)... That's just the way it is. You can't undo the weirdness by arguing against it.
EDIT: Especially when said arguments aren't true!
The development of white bread was a response to the adaptation of the grocery business to modern commerce. Bleaching gives white flour a far longer shelf life than whole wheat flour, and bread made from it likewise has a longer shelf life.
I searched for a source to back up the rat story but found nothing.
-
I must admit that my story's source is my father so I cannot verify it.
I still intensely dislike white bread. Because it's barely even bread. Sadly, reading that wikipedia article, it looks like any commercially-produced bread is barely even bread. :(
-
Lettuce puns are gay.
WTD is it with people who still use "gay" as a derogatory term? It's as if they WANT to annoy the people who have stated time and time again in the same place that it's very disrespectful and rude....
-
Not to mention that it's the single most ineffective insult I can think of.
Different people have different taste buds, that's all. You think white bread is disgusting; I think wheat bread (well, mass-produced wheat breads) has a really strange texture. Now, wheat breads you find at, say, a specialty bread store, those are delicious. Expensive, but still delicious.
-
That article about white bread sickens me. It also makes me show even more concern for my cousin because he has horrible eating habits(he snacks on pieces of white bread when he's hungry). Oh, and calling someone/something 'gay' as an insult is like calling someone any other adjective as an insult because there's nothing wrong with being gay(unless it's something like 'stupid' which is insulting).
-
Hmm, I am a fan of both, but push comes to shove, I'd take potato bread.

You're right! Potato bread taste wonderful!
-

No, there isn't.
(unless it's something like 'stupid' which is insulting).
That's EXACTLY what I meant by "derogatory".
LEARN TO READ ^_^

LEARN TO READ ^_^
That's derogatory.
Anyway, I had a Big Mac today. First one in probably a year or more. I felt bad afterwards. I don't think it was the three slices of bread, and may have not even been the Big Mac, but still. I felt bad.
-
Ok, so maybe I was wrong about the term 'stupid', but some words are used only as insults and nothing else. However, you really shouldn't take offense to these words because they are virtually meaningless in the long run.
-
How did "gay" even become an insult? That's like calling someone "a person" and meaning it as an insult; it's such a meaningless, nonsensical kind of insult.
By the way, you do realize that McDonalds doesn't even use real food, right? Pretty much everything they use is synthetic. Burger King's stuff is way better.
-

Hm, well, gay is not the same as person. So that is not at all like calling someone that. Gay is just an easy thing to say and it is an easy group to pick on.
-
Gay is supposed to mean happy. >:/
It's an insult because people found it to be a good insult like calling something "retarded" even though it isn't really, people just say things like this because they can't think of anything else and don't care as long as they insult them.
On topic: I find myself eating white bread a lot, it's probably just because we have way more white bread than wheat at our house most of the time though.
-
I just don't like use of the word that way, and consider it bad language. :P
Though, if saying someone is gay because they LITERALLY are gay (or happy), that's fine.
-
What I'd like to know is how the word "gay" ever became associated with homosexuals. If you read or listen to songs from 70+ years ago, the word "gay" is used continuously as meaning "happy".
I first heard the word "gay" in the song "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas" in the verse that says "make the yueltide gay". It wasn't until fifth grade that I found out about another meaning of the word.
So for that matter I think that...
1. "Gay" means happy.
2. "Homosexual" means homosexual.
3. "Gay" cannot be used as an insult because it has two meanings, and even if one is obvious it can't always be determined. In ages past, if someone said "Bob is so gay" they would be saying "Bob is one happy guy".
This is just my two cents on this topic. I'm sorry I haven't quoted any of you folks, but I'm not really sure how to quote on these boards.
-
It's getting pretty gay in here.
Any of you ever eat potato bread? That's delicious.
-
"Bob is one happy guy".
True that. I placed in today's Driving competition. :)
I'm not really sure how to quote on these boards.
You have two options. One: See those symbols above someone's post? An anchor, a face, and... what is that? A mailbox? The face means "Quote this person." When you click on the face, it will take you to the page where you reply to the topic, but there will be a quite inserted.
Two: You can go ahead and click "Reply to topic," then scroll down until you see the post that you wish to quote. There's a link off to the right on that post, it says "Insert quote." That will work, too. The only downside to using this method is that you can only quote the most recent one or two pages in the topic.
</non-bread discussion>
I have been eating wheat bread for a while now. I occasionally eat white, for chicken salad sandwiches or something, but now for the most part it's wheat. The only think I can think of that I haven't tried with wheat bread so far is French toast.

I think I've got the quote thing now, it looks as if the bracketed words signal the start and end of the quoted area. Thank you for the instructions!
And just so I don't stray from the topic title, has anyone ever tried the twelve grain bread with sunflower seeds? I had it at the deli at my college once and really liked it.
-

Read my post on page 2.
-
I didn't mean to make anyone mad. At the same time, I don't mean to apologize, so eh.
If you like, you can start using the phrase, "That's so hetero," in retaliation to society's acceptance of the G-word. Of course, you'll sound really gay by doing that, but eh...
-
I can't believe I'm saying this, seeing as how bread isn't really my scene, y'know, my fla-vah, but I don't think there's much more to add to the "gay" discussion and we should instead be focusing on the vital importance of what bread Deezer feeds us. Or feeds BirdPerson, I should say, since he's the one that said that Deezer is feeding him something at the beginning of this topic.
I guess I'll say white, even though I don't care for bread much at all. and it doesn't have the word "wheat" in it, which has become my archnemesis over the years.
-
Deezer doesn't need to feed me bread! i'm old enough to feed myself bread! *pushes Deezer aside with my "Super Sushie Strength"* not so tough now eh? *runs away with "Super Sushie Speed"*
-
whoah there's alot of wheat-eating healthnuts here.
How does wheat-eating make one a "healthnut"? Personally, and apparently like others here, I grew up eating wheat bread and think white bread is kinda gross (just look at how it mushes up, it has no substance). But it is healthier, so it's a good thing that there are a lot of wheat fans here. I'm not a huge bread fan, but I do like most other kinds of bread like rye, etc.
-

I have seven options. >:D Anyway, yes, it's a mailbox. From Yoshi's House in SMW.
As for the lettuce thing, I like iceberg lettuce best. Spinach and cabbage leaves = eww. Regular green lettuce is fine, though.
I'm not really a bread fan, either. Same with buns. I prefer bagels and other kinds of bread, but as far as the whole "grain/carbs" food group goes, give me pasta. :D
-
It's been a while since I had some real pasta...
When I typed that just now, I looked up at the control panel, saw Mario's face, and heard him say "pasta" just like the SMB Super Show. I love the way he says that. It's so nice and home-sweet-homely.
