    Ok, that’s cool and all, but how did it taste??

    In close proximity to the significantly deteriorated oven, an artifact of palm-size was unearthed. This artifact contained seeds of wheat, barley, and peas, …

    Upon further analysis, bread. Well, dough, I guess. Fermented, meaning it hasn’t been baked. First discovery of its kind and oldest bread found. That is just wild.

    The history of bread goes very far back in time. Bread has been known for millennia though its authentic history is lost in time. It is the primary food of man in almost all cultures worldwide.

    I find it so fascinating how long we have passed down these “technologies” (what is bread it not a form in of tech?). Here we have space ships, colliders, vaccines, electron microscopes, sequenced genomes, and the Internet …and we are still eating a food product invented thousands of years ago.
