In 1900 the average French person was eating 900g of bread per day.
I’m working on it to reach this level again.
I’m confused about the single full stop. It shows they have knowledge of basic punctuation, but refuse to use it.
Simple: I’m a carb based life form.
God gave us grain but not bread so that we, too, could indulge in the joy of creation.
I see extreme anti-carb mentality like teetotalling when the health goal is really just don’t be a drunkard.
Personally I just have keto bread with like 1 net carb. Love bread and love the fiber.
Carbs aren’t evil but if you don’t want to be overweight you have to eat carbs in moderation. It’s not that hard gang.
But im allergic to gluten :(
I’ll eat a slice for you friend 😭
“A man cannot live on bread alone
But nor can he live without it”
–That one shopkeep in Kingdom Come: Deliverancecries celiacly
Bakers knead bread to explore their souls.
And get ripped forearms.
This is incorrect.
Butter, jam, marmalade, honey, relish, mayonnaise, and mustard are what make life worth living.
Bread is like air: a medium that is difficult to enjoy on its own, but necessary so that we can have the truly good things.
It’s okay to be wrong
Found the heretic
Give me a loaf of bread, and I will eat it and be happy. End of story.
Condiments are nice conditionally, but bread is always fantastic
You can eat bread without butter, but good luck eating butter without bread
Don’t be trapped by convention. Eat the best part by itself.
Don’t tell me what to do.
It could help you get to space
And freshly baked bread smells and tastes orgasmic
When you crack that loaf and steam comes out.
Adding anything at that moment would ruin the bread.
Absolutely! You must always try the bread unbuttered first. Then add the butter for the second bite, but that first bite of freshly baked, still steaming bread must be plain to truly experience it’s splendor.
Fun fact, while the Eucharist/communion is given as a special ceremony in most denominations, originally the eating of bread at any time was considered a holy moment.
“For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord’s death till he come.” In the king James, but many other translations phrase it as “whenever” or “every time” instead of “as often”
Still today, (Christian) Quakers take it this way. You are taking the Eucharist whenever you eat bread (or just eat) or drink wine (or just drink). There is also a belief that every bath is a baptism, and that the sacraments are daily lived experiences.
So, yeah, bread is life, and is holy, and is all things that are good, and yes, I am a diabetic, and I’ll cut out soda, and ice cream, and candy, and even (God help me) potatoes if I have to… But you’ll get my bread over my cold, dead, amputated foot.
Nah, butter makes that bread even better, especially when it’s fresh.
You should look for better bread. It exists.
Better bread is bested by buttered bread.
Bread is bested by buttered bread, better bread is bested by buttered bread, but better bread bests buttered better bread.
That’s crazy. Bread is incredible. I’ll happy sit and tear pieces off and eat them like an animal. I also like condiments, but plain bread is fantastic if it’s good bread.
You’ve never bitten into a fresh, still-warm loaf of homemade sourdough just a few minutes out of the oven, have you…
Truely good bread can be eaten completely alone and taste amazing.
There’s a mom and pop shop here that makes sourdough rounds on the weekends.
There is always a line, they always sell out. It’s one of those things where if you want one, you have to get there, and get in line an hour or so before they open. Otherwise you’re SOL.
They are absolutely wonderful rounds. Just perfect.
Why waste my time when I can slather it with something delicious?
Try fresh baked bread right out of the oven. I swear whenever my bread machine finishes, I get through the first third of the loaf within the first half hour and then take most of the week to finish the rest.
I’ve been trying real hard not to spend money on a bread machine.
I got my first bread machine second-hand on eBay, for a fraction of the price of a new one. When that gave up the ghost I found a replacement machine even cheaper in a charity shop. It’s the sort of thing people buy or are given, and it ends up shoved in a cupboard. They are sold on cheaply, often hardly used.
I make a simple wholemeal loaf every week: bread flour, yeast, a little fat (oil or butter), a little salt. I leave it to bake overnight and wake to a wonderful smell. It’s better bread than supermarket stuff and works out cheaper, even using premium flours. I’m too lazy to go through all the kneading, proving etc; having a machine do it for me is perfect.
From someone who eats almost no bread anymore:
It’s the bread.
You’re not going to sit and eat a spoonful of jelly like a fucking goblin, but you might eat a piece of plain bread and be happy about it. Especially if it’s a perfectly cooked dinner roll.
You’re not going to sit and eat a spoonful of jelly like a fucking goblin
Yes I fucking will. I mean it. I do. It’s delicious.
you’re not gonna eat a spoonful of jelly
Speak for yourself mangohead
Down with the tyranny of delicious sweet things being spread on salty bread which ruins their taste. I eat jams and Nutella like they’re a dessert.
Bread is a conveyor of butter.
Bread, pasta, tortillas, chips, rice, etc. They are all just vehicles for sauce.
Bread made feeding people cheap. That isn’t civilization; that’s dominator culture. It’s slavery with extra steps. You’ve all been eating peasant food. Break the cycle.
Bread is a whole lot of work to make than say, rice. Bread isn’t cheap, it’s only cheap because some of the ingredient might’ve been subsidised in one way or another, to make sure the country isn’t starving. It’s popular among us peasant because it could last, it’s one of the most versatile ingredient available, and it’s filling.
Bread made feeding people cheap.
Bread is a luxury, if feeding people cheap was the only concern, porridge would be a better use of grains than bread. Porridge predominated when peasant culture predominated; bread becomes common with civilization’s connections, innovations, and specialization.
So basically people eat porridge when they don’t have access to a mill and oven.
Low-carb bread is the one true religion.
BLASPHEMER!
