If I have to syn how many syns per slice?

The bread hex is all about how much fibre it has, so white bread (and brown bread, which is also low in fibre) would have to be synned. It's only wholemeal bread that counts for a hex.

Basic, Bread, White bread, 25g	3	3	3
Basic, Bread, White bread, 400g loaf, 1 slice	3	3	3
Basic, Bread, White bread, 800g loaf, 1 extra thck	7	7	7
Basic, Bread, White bread, 800g loaf, 1 med slice	4½	4½	4½
Basic, Bread, White bread, 800g loaf, 1 thck slice	6	6	6

There are actually several white breads you can use as a HEB - most people like to use Kingsmill Great White. You can have 60g as a HEB or two slices from a medium loaf would be HEB + 2 syns x

You can use white breads like Kingsmill Great White, yeah, but they're very much speciality breads with supplementary fibre added, I wouldn't necessarily lump them in with bog standard white bread.

I don't believe I did, only let the OP know that there are white breads available which she can choose to use is she prefers

I don't believe I did

Yeah, you didn't. I said I wouldn't, not that you did.
