Boudin. 'nuff said.

I like American bread. We don't eat bread in regular basis in my country. That's why I found bread and cakes here are delicious compared to my native country.

Any kind of threads "US food sucks" are stupid - you can get any kind of food here, you just need to look and pay for it. Bread from Walmart with 3 months expiration date sucks, but why would anybody expect anything different ?

Bread is expensive relatively and generally processed for long life.

I prefer the "freshly baked/in-store bakery" bread on both sides of the Atlantic.

Mrs. T-B. said that she doesn't like white bread. I said, "Why, then, did you marry me?"

Most of the baked goods in the stores taste like #######.

We eat bread perhaps 3-4 times per week. Bake our own bread and rolls; usually make extra to freeze for later use. Better control over the ingredients and we like the heartier, nuttier breads anyway.

Most US shop bought bread is awful; stuffed with sugar, corn syrup or honey. My USC wife bought a bread maker when I moved and its sooo good

For your brains obviously!

My wife told me she married me for my brains. She wanted to #### them out of me... :devil:

My favorite is swirl bread cinnamon from Pepperidge Farm. I also like double chocolate Milano cookies. Oh I forgot to mention that I am really crazy of potatoes bread. I never had one before in my country.

I think it's more because a novelty of my taste that I've found American bread more delicious than most of similar bread in my country. The pastry here also very good, .

I always found US bread to be far too sweet, give me a good loaf of Warburtons any day.

Oh yes, I as an American am mortally offended that anyone might think our bread sucks. I am so glad someone had the good taste to remove such an offensive title.

Seriously though, our bread does suck. I rarely eat it over here because it is truly foul.

We have found one white bread near us that is really good. After living in the UK I too find our bread too sweet. We purchase Vermont Bread Company's soft white. It does have honey in it, but sugar count on the nutrition label is 1g which is about the same or less than some of the bread we had in the UK. I do have to say, I was always completely confounded in the UK when our bread would turn green in fuzzy in less than a week, and then I realized it was because there were far fewer preservatives in the UK version!
