Personally I just have keto bread with like 1 net carb. Love bread and love the fiber.

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.

You should look for better bread. It exists.

Better bread is bested by buttered 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.

Why waste my time when I can slather it with something delicious?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

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.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 14 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.

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.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 14 hours ago

you're not gonna eat a spoonful of jelly

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.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 15 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.
