    Mass produced, store bought bread is trash, but you can also find some of the nest quality bread you’ll ever taste if you go to specialty bakers insteadof supermarkets. I live in Wyoming and I can buy breads made with heirloom grains that are actually highly nutritious. The same applies to cookies, etc. Remember, the USA is a major producer of grains. We grow grain of exceptional quality. We just don’t sell it to our own people at a discount. We export the good stuff for profit and eat the low quality high yield stuff.

      I was in California in the 80’s, and the store bought bread tasted very well back then IMO.
      I bought some at a local shop, and used as part of my breakfast I made myself in my hotel room to save money. 😋

        Depending on the brand it might have been better 40 years ago. Or if it was wonder bread, you just liked the sugar in it.

          No I hate added sugar in bread. So there was definitely no added sugar, or at the most very little.
          It was one of those kinds that are supposed to be more healthy because they use whole grains.
