A french bakery is called a boulangerie, because for centuries bread was prepared in a bowl, or boule. That gave the loaves a particular round shape, like an inverted bowl
Amazingly, it wasn't until the late 17th century that someone thought, "You know what, I could make this into different shapes, like maybe a stick shape!"

Wish it were a simulation. The truth is much sadder. All that bread gets tossed daily into the bin and not even offered to the homeless.
...do your friends not eat bread?
I get offered bread pretty regularly... it's just there, available, all the time; it's a simple offer. Are you never at their houses?
The bread is a lie.
I must be a lie too.
I got a sourdough boule from Lidl once, they're nice.
I think you just do too much drugs.
