What is horizontal sliced bread?

Horizontal sliced bread is a type of bread that has been sliced horizontally instead of vertically. The bread is sliced into even, thin layers and is often used for sandwiches or toasting. This type of slicing allows for more consistent and evenly spread ingredients on a sandwich. Horizontal sliced bread can also provide a more delicate texture and prevent the bread from tearing apart when used in a sandwich. Most commercial breads are sold in horizontal slices and can be found in grocery stores and bakeries.
