Why can't you ever get sandwiches on plain white bread?

[pickoftheday]

Whenever I go to the supermarket and pick up my sandwiches for lunch, why is it always that horrible brown bread that they serve.

Don't get me wrong, I love brown bread but I think the bread that they use in supermarkets tends to be super tough and always tastes days old.

I always look for alternative, nice plain white sliced / bloomer but there is hardly any to choose from.

Health gestapo won't allow it. No bleached white flour for you.

I prefer white toast and am happy with good white bread for a bacon sarnie but at all other times I want brown/wholemeal/granary etc for a sandwich.

Morrisons do sandwiches on plain ol' white bread

Asda and Tesco do sarnies on white as well.

It's Tesco I was talking about. All the best sarnies are on that horrible brown bread, which tastes vile. What happened to the good old white bloomer?

Totally agree pickoftheday. the only white ones Tesco do are dull fillings lke egg and cress. All the really nice ones are sandwiched between 2 pieces of brown carpet.

I've just had a Tescos sandwich in plain white bread... 'southern fried chicken'
Very nice it was too! Greggs do white bread sandwiches.
