No it doesn't. If you were so inclined you could cut your crusty loaf into portions and wrap it, or rolls, in tinfoil before putting it in the freezer.
If the bread or rolls are properly wrapped in tinfoil its possible to warm them out of the freezer - in a double saucepan and have them coming out of the tinfoil moist, and actually smelling of fresh bread.
Not that I do it all the time, but it can be useful over holidays when there are no bakers open.

But it is still thawed frozen bread.
Thawed frozen bread could be classed as an oxymoron.
And anyway it's not just any old thawed frozen bread.
Its formerly frozen bread, which is carefully thawed in tinfoil, so as to retain all its moisture

I probably eat about the equivalent of one roll per day. Would you really go to the bother of making your own in such a small quantity?
Is this about economics or taste?
If you just want cheap bread buy supermarket sliced.
And most ovens have room for other things as well as a part baked roll. ;-)
But think of all the energy you've wasted freezing it - and that extra time in the toaster. ;-)
So you're claiming are you that bread, or anything else for that matter, can be both thawed and frozen at the same time ?
Wouldn't either process defeat the purpose of the other ?

Then that would be thawed, frozen bread.
Presumably you were off sick from school, on the day your classmates were all taught about commas.
And full stops as well. To judge by your second sentence.

It's about the best compromise
and I have already said (twice) that what I consider the best is buying "baked on the premises" rolls and putting them in the freezer
I didn't say that I wanted cheap bread. It's the claim of the Bread machine maniacs that it is cheaper
Well of course, but if I'm not cooking anything else in the over that day what then?
For normal meals, I use my oven about a dozen times a year, everything else either gets cooked under the grill or on the hob
putting bread in the oven is a wasteful exercise in my house

Get a toaster with a defrost button.
all that does is increase the time for any given "numbered" setting.
all you need to do with frozen bread is select the next number or two

Any supermarket in the UK sells a variety of sliced bread. My local baker will also slice any loaf you buy for you there and then.
So only someone stupid would talk about normal sliced bread.
You only get one thickness of sliced bread? You poor dear.
You should also post your crystal ball on here - might help others to know what you mean. But I doubt they're much interested.
our baker has a slicer that does mixed thick & medium. No9t, taht I use it, we prefer to slice our own, it stays fresher that way.
Except for the first slice? ;-)

Nope, it runs at a low setting to defrost then switches to your numbered setting. That way you don't adjust the dial for non-frozen bread
All the machines I have seen do thick at one side and medium at the other side so will do half and half if you put it through the middle.
I like toasted crust sliced thickly. ;-))
