Am I weird for preferring wholemeal over white bread?

[โ€“] [email protected] 9 points 9 months ago (1 children)

No. You are adult. This is diagnostic. I am not talking about 'brown' bread, which is white bread with added caramel for the colour. Real wholemeal is sweetish when chewed, but in a nice way. And MUCH more nutritious. Even plastic bag wholemeal bread. Wholemeal sourdough or ciabatta is another level of yum. I even like wholemeal flat breads more than white.

Sour dough and ciabatta are ok for certain things but I find them too chewy for a sandwich.

nope wholemeal gang here you good.

Wholemeal is the best

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 9 months ago

No. Wholemeal bread is more "toothsome" (a word used in my household to describe any food which feels nice to bite/chew, and doesn't disintegrate into "plog." Are these words made up? I think so).

It depends on the brand. ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ

Depends on your topping/filling. Some things just want a certain bread.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Nope. Wholemeal has a taste. White has no taste. Multigrain can go in the bin tho.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago

I actually like the taste though.
