Tangentially, why are commercial breads so SWEET today?    Sweet hamburger and hot dog buns?    Sweet multi-grain seeded loaves?   Has America lost its savory tooth?    Echoing @weinoo, I have started using dark rye as my daily bread.   Or sometimes dill-rye.    Either make decent toast and sandwich bases.  

Another vote for burgers on toasted bread. I hardly ever eat beef any more but once in a blue moon I get a great yen for a green chile burger cooked on the grill. Usually it's an Italian batard, or it could be rye. I just find those buns to be inedible.
