Same in the UK. "bread" is the spongy toast bread that somehow stays soft for 7 days+. I find even actual bakeries that make "artisinal" bread(and of course it has to be "artisinal", no one can just make a normal loaf of bread anymore without treating it like it's some special thing) must have only seen pictures of good sourdough, because it's almost never properly risen, it's about half height of what a good sourdough should be. And it doesn't even taste like a real thing.
Same with rolls(buns?) - you get these really awful "baps" everywhere, which are again this soft dough without any crust to them.
I've lived here for 12 years now and I yearn for some good bread. I know of one Polish bakery that does the real stuff, but it's 20 miles away so it's a very rare treat whenever I happen to head that way.
