white-bread
 
PRONUNCIATION:hwtbrd, wt-
ADJECTIVE: Blandly conventional, especially when considered as typical of white middle-class America: “The proven ability of blacks to appeal to mainstream America … shattered forever the mythology that only white-bread ‘mainstream’ culture could sell” (Joel Kotkin, Los Angeles Times January 21, 1996).
