Does this woman realize she can still buy her bland enriched flour white bread if she wants? More to that matter, does she realize that the bread she thinks is some kind of tradition is itself a very modern invention in historical context?

Yes and no, modern white Wonderbread is modern but white bread really took hold for the upper classes in the 18th and 19th century due to (reasonable) panics around adulterated flour. It was easy to see additives like pebbles, bones and sawdust which were easy to hide in wheat breads of the time.

Actually, the modern loaf is a little older than you're thinking. It was actually a pretty controversial issue in industrializing England. "White" flour lasts longer and thus poor workers were more likely to buy that bread, despite efforts to push them into buying whole grain bread.
