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.

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.

[–] MrsDoyle@sh.itjust.works 2 points 13 hours ago

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.

Yes I fucking will. I mean it. I do. It's delicious.

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.

[–] paultimate14@lemmy.world 4 points 14 hours ago

Bread, pasta, tortillas, chips, rice, etc. They are all just vehicles for sauce.

Low-carb bread is the one true religion.

Our Lord and Savior Almond Flour forgives all who humbly accept it into their stomach.

In gluten we trust.
