The first thing that comes to mind are these frozen turkey burgers. They weren't offensive but they were so flavorless. Nothing I added to them made them palatable. It was the damnedest thing.

Sprouted Multigrain Sourdough.

For something like grilled cheese that calls for more like a white bread, Wegmans has a whole grain white that has the texture of white bread but with a nice bit of extra nutty flavor.
