What kind of preservatives are used in bread?

Does bread stale faster in the refrigerator?
Bread lasts longer in the fridge because the cooling process slows down the rate of decomposition and consumption by molds and fungi. It also prevents organisms and bacteria from getting the bread in the first place.
This is incorrect. Bread does NOT last longer if you put it in the fridge. It dry's out the bread quicker and will go stale quicker than leaving it out on the counter. Bread will last longer if you freeze it. That is different. There is some confusion about this fridge question. But a simple google search will provide you the correct answer.
Why does bread taste sweet after a while?
The bread/chapati is made from flour which contains the polymer called starch. Starch is made up of chains of sugar molecules chemically linked together (it is the way plants store sugar).

Can cinnamon keep mold off your bread?
Yes. When I make applesauce, I make two versions: one with lots of cinnamon for myself and one without cinnamon for my wife. Hers will acquire mold within a few weeks, whereas mine has lasted for months without any sign of mold growing in it.
Admittedly, I haven't done the experiment with a more modest amount of cinnamon in the applesauce, but cinnamon is indeed clearly a mold inhibitor. (To get an idea of what my cinnamon applesauce is like, I once had friends who tried it tell me that they thought it quite a novel idea that I decided to add some apples to my cinnamonsauce.)
