White bread is far better with breakfast type food.
why do people eat white bread.

I eat wholemeal but my husband prefers white and for only one reason give him a slice of brown and he would be in the loo all day, does not treat his digestive system kindly at all.
White and brown are the same price anyway so whoever said price was the reason was most likely wrong

Smiths Square crisps laid out like overlapping tiles on a slice slathered in Mayo and the other slice on top and pressed down

^^ This.
I don't like cheese on toast on brown bread as the bread goes to crunchy when toasted. I like the chewy texture of white bread with it.

Drop the mustard. It has to be HP sauce.
Because white bread is the only bread that doesn't make my bowels try and turn itself inside out.
(I dream of seeded wholemeal bread but alas...)
Plus a rye bread bacon sarnie is so very very wrong...

Mmm, I'm sitting here eating a piece of lovely fresh crusty white baguette spread with butter and marmite. Yummy.
Actually I do usually prefer wholemeal bread, especially the granary or seeded ones. I don't like cheap white sliced bread (except occasionally for toast).

Are you sure? I see the cheapest loaves of white bread at just under 50p, I thought the cheapest brown was nearer a pound?

Cheap bread doesn't mean the nicest bread.

Morrisons have wholewheat brown bread 50p and their white is the same price, think it's called baked for you bread.
Not as close textured as sainsburys at 90p a loaf but quite nicely flavoured. Makes nice toast too.

No but it does mean we can afford to buy it so don't knock cheap.

Exactly. Different bread for different situations.
Scrambled eggs on toast - always brown
Fried egg sandwich - white bloomer
Lunchtime with prawns - white wrap
Lunchtime with tuna - white baguette
Dipping in soup - buttered wholemeal

This..
I love all kinds of bread but sometimes, white bread is needed when I really want to taste the filling in a sandwich ( I think some breads can overpower the taste of the filling ) or when I want a cheese and tuna toastie.

Quite right, brown bread does not enhance sandwich fillings and just does not have the right mouth feel when it is toasted, unless it is covered with marmarlade.

Your hubby sounds like me molliepops, my digestive system can't cope with brown bread.
Aldi (a German company) do a rather tasty heat it up yourself WHITE garlic baguette for 34p
The primary health benefit to this is that eating it cheers one up!
Correction: I think Aldi may be of Austrian origin?

I think you were right with Germany. Lidl is German too.
For sandwiches I usually have wholemeal however if I was having a ploughman's lunch, it would have to be crusty white bread.
Sandwiches - Granary
Toast - Granary and Lurpak
Sausage Sarnie - White
Bacon Sarnie - White
With soup - Tiger Bread
Cheese on Toast - White
Toastie - White
I live on a council estate I like white and brown bread
