Dutch Bread: not as bad as US bread but still horrible compared to French or German.

My baker backs once a week on Friday, transports it Saturday mornings and sells it in himself. On Saturday I cut the loafs, pack the loafs in a ziplock and freeze them at -35C. The whole week we enjoy delicious bread and never waste a slice. Sandwiches brought to work that are leftover, we eat the next day and taste good.

You’d be better off not slicing the loafs and storing them properly - freezing bread ruins it.

Your conclusion is at odds with the conclusion of the linked article:

FTA: So here's my practical advice. In lieu of acts of god and any other kind of divine intervention, the best way to store bread is well wrapped in plastic and/or foil in the freezer, whether sliced or not, then reheated in the oven.

Refrigerating bread ruins it. Freezing does not. (Which the linked article does state.)
