There can be slight differences in storage between various kinds of sliced bread, says Robbins.
Bread’s moisture content differs depending on what kind of flour is used.
White bread typically lasts longer due to its lower moisture content and benefits from following proper storage guidelines.

Mold may appear as fuzzy patches in various colors throughout the loaf, explains Robbins.
Even if the mold is only on one slice of the loaf, discard the entire loaf.
Mold spores can travel and contaminate other parts of the bread even if you cannot see them.
Robbins suggests a three-month freezer life for bread.
If your loaf is pre-sliced, peel off a single slice and stick it directly in the toaster.
Robbins adds that there is no difference in the freeze-ability or defrosting practices between different kinds of sliced bread.
