Bakers knead bread to explore their souls.

We should stage a conquest of bread.

Reading "anti crab" propaganda made me think extra.

Did.. Did they just make a "pee is stored in the balls" reference?

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

In 1900 the average French person was eating 900g of bread per day.

I'm working on it to reach this level again.

Bread is like the shady dealer standing just inside a dark alley who, when somebody passes by on the street, goes:

"Hey you!"

"Yes, you."

"Would you like a little something to make you feel good?"

"Oh I really shouldn't, I ..."

I see extreme anti-carb mentality like teetotalling when the health goal is really just don't be a drunkard.

I only accept the darkest, blackest bread there is. I crave the fiber

The vast majority of breads are adulterated to a point of being virtually fraudulent. At least in the US there is pretty much only two brands of bread that are actually good, and most people have access to only one, if any. Here's a video that goes into detail about it:

The darkest bread there is, is usually bread that is articifially dark. Here in the Netherlands we have bread colored as chocolate, that would actually be white but is made to look dark so people think it's healthier.

Gluten free bread lacks any of the pleasant qualities of actual bread (my gluten allergy is "makes you have the shits" and not "kills you")

You can get good biscuits and cake without gluten. Good cereal. Passable pasta. Even decent pizza crust.

Not bread. Not by a long shot. The best gluten free bread in the world is just decent at its best, not to mention costing 15x the price. REALLY not worth it.

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.
