Mom switched all of us over to whole wheat bread, bran, high fiber etc. It was hell at first as our bodies flushed themselves not used to all the fiber. I don't think we usually ate cheap store brand white bread, after that she bought whatever was cheaper and got a kitchen aide mixer and made our own. I still can't really stand store bought white balloon bread. I do like homemade white bread and specialty breads. We buy whatever decent whole wheat bread we can get and have a bigger kitchen aide 500 lift bowl just in case we want to make something big.

French Toast?
I prefer a thicker cut (Texas Toast) for French Toast off the stovetop.
Or cubed French bread worked into a French Toast casserole.

Was it gone?
Guess I never missed it.
French toast:
We prefer the large "homemade" loaf from the bread machine for French Toast. I have other recipes and make other breads by hand or with the Kitchenaid, but for French toast we like the traditional white, then cut about 3/4 inch thick, soak in the custard mix. Eww-La-la. (that's French isn't it?"

But there's a reason I don't own a bread machine...

Texas-French Toast! That has me wondering if I've ever used anything thick-cut--so I have got to try it...
My freezer is loaded w/ wheat bread, and the ever-shrinking bag of Wonder, whereas the only bread the wife & kid eat, Sunbeam White, or more often a store's White, private-brand is in the fridge...
My all-time favorite is Hillbilly bread, so w/ some grease in my skillet, and another large bowl & a fork (the whisk is in the dishwasher) I am hankering top make French Toast with that...
I have some cracked wheat by Koepplinger & I think I couple loaves of their reg. whole wheat--so in short, I eat "good for you bread" & that means WHOLE WHEAT, whereas my dad won't eat anything nowadays but multi-grain--he and I are typically on bird feeding kicks, meaning he scrapes out leftovers with old mark-ed down white bread (he NEVER eats WHITE--health conscious, you know) and actually buys seed & goes by my late-mom's tradition of filling her now-deteriorating bird feeders... Whereas I toss out everything 'bread', and wipe out grease and other food-debris with (though meat juice I use to make soup) to feed my birds...
The homemade bread idea seems economical, as we tend to run out of it, though I can get one loaf of what I buy to outlast what the wimmen-folk eat, which is usually one loaf of their stuff...
So I would sure like a bread maker if it ever solves my constant running out, provided it's easy to use & keep clean...
