White bread is made from bleached flour. The flour is completely void of nutrition at this point and your body immediately converts it into sugar. It's Any refined product like that is no good for you. White tortillas are also void of nutrition. You should eat whole grain breads.

White bread is made from bleached flour and doesn't have many nutrients or fiber and are made with simple sugars/carbs. So, you are essentially just eating empty calories.
If you want to look for a "good" bread, look for ones that are high in fiber, have nutrients (some companies will add extra vitamins), have complex carbs.

They're not bad... but they are fairly nutritionally void, especially when compared to whole grain foods.
Personally, I don't think they taste as good either. I like my bread with some texture.

white bread is bad for you because they take all the good stuff out of it to make you healthy, it also gives your very bad constipation.

they are made of simple carbs-wheat bread has more fiber in it and more nutrients and takes more energy for your body to break it down--white bread doesnt have much in it

because wheat has fiber in it and white bread does not. white bread also has more calories in it.

Because the natural fiber in the wheat has been pulverized and bleached. (I think)
