I got this one at my local Acme for $2.49.
The taste:The extra bake on that crust translated to a bit of bitterness in taste.
The inside of the bread had very little taste, but the bitterness of the crust overpowered everything.

Unsurprisingly, a loaf ofwhite bread at TJ’sis reasonably pricedjust $2.49.
The look:Trader Joe’s white bread looks rather ordinary, and that’s okay.
The dryness certainly comes out in the taste, though.

The taste:The bread tastes fine, but it is definitely dry and a bit bland.
Still, it’s there for those who have certain dietary restrictions.
Ultimately, though, it’s not too bad.

The look:This is another slightly larger-than-standard slice of bread.
(Hello, big sandwich!)
It’s also a somewhat dense slice, which translates to a heavy slice of bread.

I picked this up for $4.29 at Acme.
It looks like a classic slice of white bread with a golden brown crust.
It even has that fluffy texture you’re expecting.

I was skeptical from the moment I opened the bag, and my questions just kept coming.
The look:No, this doesn’t look like white bread.
It looks like a multigrain bread (you might even see the seeds).

It’s made with unbleached flour, so is this even actually a white bread?
Honestly, probably not, but the brand calls it one!
There are healthier white breads that still taste like white bread.

This tastes like wheat bread (because that’s basically what it is).
There’s nothing wrong with how it tastes, it just doesn’t taste like white bread.

The look:Another rustic-looking bread, this one comes dusted with flour and offers an oversize slice.
It’s a bit on the thick side and is pretty fluffy, if not slightly dense.
The dense quality would make it a good sandwich bread.

This is a bread I wouldn’t eat on its own, simply because of the texture.
It needs added moisture to itlike jelly or mayoto liven it up.
The texture is a bit stiff, but that could also help your sandwich hold up better!

The crust is also really soft and inoffensiveso crust-haters can happily eat all of it.
Nevertheless, it’s a good deal.
The taste:Great Value offers a soft slice of bread here with a light, neutral flavor.

It’s fun to change up your classic white breads, andBimbo soft white breadis certainly just thata classic.
It’s also really soft and spongy.
The taste:This slice has a bit of a sweet kick to it, which is nice.

It’s very light, which gives it that little bit of oomph to an otherwise neutral flavor.
The spongy texture provides a light mouthfeel as well.
The taste:If you assumed this bread was sweet, you assumed correctly.
It is sweet, but not too sweet.
Wonder Bread
It doesn’t get much more classic thanWonder Bread.
This is the standard-bearer for all soft, fluffy white breadand for good reason.
It’s a very good loaf of bread!
Plus, it’s always affordable.
This one was $2.92 at Walmart.
But the crust was a little flaky, and the inside of the bread was perfectly fluffy.
The taste:The bread has a light yeast flavor that’s not too in your face.
It’s just enough to give the bread flavor.
TheCountry Style Whiteis a rustic white bread that feels like grandma made it.
I bought this loaf for $5.29 at Acme.
The taste:This bread tastes really yeasty, which I loved.
I like when my bread tastes like bread, and this definitely does.
