      But not moldy, which is dangerous as opposed to inconvenient.

      Can always throw the bread in the microwave for 10-15 seconds to give it some life anyways.

      That hasn’t been true in my experience. If anything leaving it out on the counter makes it get stale (and worse, moldy) much faster, whereas i can leave a loaf in the fridge for a month or two and it will be perfectly fine.

        I hate to break it to you, but that ain’t bread.

          Ehhh I mean yeah technically it’s “Scientifically Enhanced” Bread, but the “real” stuff is only good for a short time. I need something that doesn’t rush me to eat like 5-10 sandwiches (or meals where bread is a side) in one week.

            5-10 sandwiches a week is a lot of bread to you? When I was in high school as a growing teen-aged boy I would eat that in a day. Most families with kids will go through 1 or 2 loafs of bread each day.

            Is this a personal thing or do Americans in general just eat very little bread?

              Don’t get me wrong, when I was a teen I’d go to the bakery, pick up a loaf of fresh french bread and eat it on the walk home. But those days are long since past, unfortunately. And I don’t have kids.

              American eat way too much bread … but I don’t get it either. I tend to follow a routine for breakfast and lunch: one sandwich a day for lunch will use up a loaf in about a week
