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.

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
And freshly baked bread smells and tastes orgasmic
You can eat bread without butter, but good luck eating butter without 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.
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.
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.
Bread is a conveyor of butter.
Bread, pasta, tortillas, chips, rice, etc. They are all just vehicles for sauce.

God gave us grain but not bread so that we, too, could indulge in the joy of creation.

But nor can he live without it"

Reading "anti crab" propaganda made me think extra.
Did.. Did they just make a "pee is stored in the balls" reference?
Bread is still one of those real old school basic foods, that comes with a decent somewhat similar old school basic price.
I don't care if it's good or bad, i want to have some money left at the end of the month instead of having month left at the end of your money.
In 1900 the average French person was eating 900g of bread per day.
I'm working on it to reach this level again.
Yeah but that factory white bread in the supermarket is literally the devil. How else can it stay good for so long?
Factory white bread is just misunderstood. It's not meant for anything fancy, it's designed for PBnJ or a quick bologna sandwich. If you're putting more than a slice of cheese and ultra processed meat slurry on it, you're misusing it.
For thousands of years the peak of life has been eating fresh bread and drinking wine, it still is tbh. For maximum luxery add fresh cooked meat to the bread :3
And CHEESE !
Bread is best as a butter or cheese delivery vehicle.
No matter how you slice it, only the upper crust of bread society can cut it as a standalone food.
Simple: I'm a carb based life form.
I only accept the darkest, blackest bread there is. I crave the fiber
Based and yeast-pilled
I used to make a lot of bread and things like pizza dough. I've even grown and ground my own wheat and other grains.
And then my partner developed and/or decided they have a gluten sensitivity. Yes I've tried making gluten-free whatever but it's not the same. I want my gluteny-goodness.
I will harbor this resentment forever.
Whole grain bread is okay, depending on brand and quality (Ezekial bread is the only good kind I normally have acess to). Any kind that's not whole grain (or good quality whole grain) contributes to diabetes risk. That is not love. That is hurt.
I also eat cake, red meat, smoked meat, vegetables high in oxalates, various fried foods, and occasionally drink alcohol. Life should not be about eliminating every risky behavior, it should be about fulfillment and weighing risk against probability and payoff. We all die eventually and I want to eat tasty food before I get there.
I recently saw an infographic that showed the risk of death for getting out of bed at 90 years old is the same as the risk of hang gliding. To me, this means you should take up hang gliding when you're 90.
More seriously, you should take risks to have a full and rewarding life. Those risks can be mitigated. I've ridden motorcycles, but I also wear a helmet and safety gear while doing it.
You sacrifice and sacrifice, cutting everything out of your habits or diet that may bring you pleasure, only for the sake of extending your life. Then at the end of it all, you look back in dismay, in the dismal realization that despite your years, you have never lived at all...
I like how in the menu the chef is like -- and I'm paraphrasing of course -- you assholes can't have bread cuz you don't deserve it.
