Sometimes I buy the bread lol. The bread just gets made into other things if nobody buys it. Sliced after the first day, made into croutons the day after or a number of other bread goodness like garlic bread or used to make those pre-packed subs, etc. Or it's just tossed cause bread is cheap and making at the scale they make it makes it even cheaper.
By the way, if you have even a passing interest I recommend baking your own bread, unless you want sourdough and you don't want to spend that effort cause sourdough is next level effort. But a basic white bread is extremely easy and tastes so good fresh and lasts for soooo much longer than the store made breads.
Since apparently it's so cheap to make and so much of it gets thrown away anyway, you'd think they just lower the price of it. The reason I don't buy that kind of bread is it usually way more expensive.
It's usually a dollar a full loaf where I get it?
The like artisanal type breads? Like the brioche and the sourdough and all that? Hell that's a deal. I can get a French loaf for a dollar but that's about it.
Oh well I usually do just get the french/italian breads, I don't usually swing for the higher end breads, though I got them once or and I recall them being fairly inexpensive but I don't know what the actual cost was.
