For myself I have found that ditching bread altogether improved my health. I use the money not spent (on bread & stuff to go on it) for other carbs like fruit, dried fruit, veg. It's a bit of a cop-out with my kids though: sometimes I need for them to be able to feed themselves, and a sandwich is easy for them to make, so I still buy it for them. But in an ideal world, I'd prefer to have other snacks around for them to help themselves to, that don't include bread. This would involve more cooking/preparing than I have the time or inclination for!
