I’m not talking about sliced bread like Wonder bread or Dave’s Killer Bread, etc. If you can’t find sugar-free bread then you you’re not trying. Many places make big round whole loaves, bag them and sell them at grocery stores. The bread goes bad quicker because it doesn’t have sugar. You can find anything from basic peasant bread to whole wheat and sourdough. In the 3 different regions I’ve lived in the US I have never had an issue with finding good bread.

Nope. It goes bad quicker because it doesn't have shelf stabilizers.

If anything, sugar increases how fast bread goes bad.

It's pretty hard to know exactly how much sugar is in those big round loaves, harder than the national brands with the nutrition label.
