I love bread... but those bags of bread you get in the "bread aisle" I hate. I've never liked sandwiches much, and don't like the crusts on those kinds of bread at all. I first had regular access to good bread in Slovenia and after getting back from that normal bread was never the same again... I never touch that awful normal stuff anymore. It's bread that you can't eat by itself because it has no flavor... I prefer to eat bread as it is: plain. Toppings (cheeses or peanut butter and honey or whatver) go on crackers... though sometimes I dip the bread in something, most of the time I eat it plain. Because good bread actually has flavor and taste. :)
Toasting... no, never liked toasting bread that much either. Or peanut butter and jelly... though not liking sandwiches makes that make some sense. Peanut butter and honey on crackers is great though...
I eat plenty of food with preservatives in it (crackers for instance), but in the case of bread, the real stuff is just so much better that it's no contest. And besides, it's not like the loaves actually last long enough to go stale most of the time anyway... :)
The only downside of "good" bread is that it's more expensive. And you need to own a bread knife.
