But pastrami sandwiches still go on Jewish rye, of course.

I don't do new years' resolutions, but I think I'm making one this year: I'm going to eat as much white bread as I please. I love white bread, and white rolls, and naan, and pita chips, and pizza, and Crazy Bread and all of its ilk, and those thick sweet doughy rolls you only get at Chinese restaurants, and the next time the bread basket full of hot butter-glazed yeast rolls comes my way at the restaurant, my reaction is not going to be, "Whoops, don't want to fill up on just bread, now," instead I'll say, "Bread! Doggie-bag my main course, my good man, I'll just dive in face-first."

White bread is the best bread! (OMG bread racist!) I'm supposed to avoid it, but no other bread is anywhere near as yummy.

There's probably some reason we're keyed to like it. Sweetness, perhaps?

I think so. It becomes sugar the fastest of all breads (which is why I'm supposed to avoid it), so I guess our bodies know that and want it.
