I'm having trouble finding a good brand of vegan whole grain bread that I can find at my normal grocery store and isn't too expensive. Does anyone know of any good brands?

I don't know of any brands at your supermarket... but a local bakery might have some. Usually small bakeries don't use "weird" ingredients like mono and diglycerides or lactylate, etc.
Peace, love, and happiness.
I forgot to add this: Today I asked my mom to buy me some rye and pumpernickel bread. I was disappointed.The main ingredient was white flour.Is all rye and pumpernickel bread like this?
I had some nice tasting organic bread from Whole Foods when I was visiting the US.
Not really an answer to your question, but have you thought about getting a breadmaker? I've got a really cheap one but it still makes great dough (which you can put whatever ingredients you want into) and has been going for about 4 years and counting...
You can get EZIKEIL bread at the local supermarket. It is organic and vegan and healthy. It costs around $2.75 for a loaf.
Recent conversation at my local supermarket:
Me: "Do you have a wholegrain bread that doesn't contain lard?"
Them: "No."
Me. "Why not?"
Them: *shrugs shoulders* "Because the Bolognese people like it." Ugh
I'm surprised that with all the recent emphasis on healthy eating that they should choose to continue using animal fat in bread. They put it in their own brand bread too, and we're talking about a well-respected, high-end supermarket.
Bleh! No one uses lard anymore except for old ladies who are still cooking from their 1954 cookbooks!
Peace, love, and happiness.
Try telling them that

You're right eve, it's one of those sayings that's unfortunately become engrained in our language as a put down, so much so that we're not even aware of it anymore. I'm sure Tigerlily didn't mean any offence.
Um...is it weird that I have yet to encounter a whole grain bread that WASN'T vegan?
A lot of them seemed to have honey when I was over in the US, but there were a few breads that seemed okay (apart from that they all had huge ingredients lists, including "enzymes", whatever they are).
Bread and sugar are two reasons I'm glad to be vegan in the UK, where it seems a lot simpler.
