Bakers knead bread to explore their souls.

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.

Actually fat makes you fat and carbs make you crab

The incessant lurch of time makes us crab and there's nothing we can do about it

Isn't Low Carb debunked? As long as you eat halfway clean and at a deficit, you lose weight. And you don't gain weight by eating a lot of carbs, as long as you don't have a caloric surplus.

Weight loss is literally calories in vs calories out. That’s it. Carbs generally have way more calories than foods without carbs. Low carb definitely works for weight loss, so I don’t know if I’d call that debunked.

It’s really simple. But these fad diet cultures we get sucked into have made us all crazy it feels like.

You got it all wrong, you just have to work out a lot and then eat all the carbs you want

I'm confused about the single full stop. It shows they have knowledge of basic punctuation, but refuse to use it.

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

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.

There used to be punishments for bakers adulterating flour to make profits; medieval communities were so reliant on the bread that the Lords went out of their way to regulate bakeries and ensure high wages for bakers to prevent that from happening (i.e: Adding chalk).

Reading "anti crab" propaganda made me think extra.

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

Yeah but that factory white bread in the supermarket is literally the devil. How else can it stay good for so long?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 months ago

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.

Bread is my favourite carb, and it isn't close. I had a period in my teens of sandwiching everything. Chili? Sandwich. Curry? Sammich. Stews? You guessed it: big mess.

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

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

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 months ago

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

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 months ago (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 months ago

And CHEESE !

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 months ago

Simple: I'm a carb based life form.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 months ago (2 children)

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.

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.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 months ago (4 children)

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