      I’m sure there are those of the asexual community who also enjoy garlic bread. Pasta doesn’t even need to be involved!

      You see there is a metaphor for intimacy, the garlic bread, and sex, the pasta.

        I was just scrolling in the World feed and thinking of how true this advice is, and that I should make more garlic bread. Then your comment hit with a different perspective that makes somewhat sense.

          Huh. Yeah it really does make sense as an analogy. I also just noticed that the word analogy is kinda like the word astrology, if you know what I mean.

      Iirc someone made a tweet along the lines of “name something better than sex” to which another person replied “garlic bread.” Then that got screenshoted and posted to one of the ace subreddits. The post took off and now we are forever associated with garlic bread

      It’s an in-joke: like dragons, or invading Denmark.

    The garlic bread thing is nice and all, just ease up on the cheese and butter, one day as an adult you go to your doctor and the exclaims “your chlorestoral isn’t supposed to be this high, your going to have a heart attack”. Adulting sucks.

        After learning of my potential immediate death. I’ve actually switched to a vegan diet so thank you for the recipe. I may try it.

        hell yeah vegan aces represent

        garlic bread is mostly vegan already anyway, since cheese is optional and most bread you would use for garlic bread doesnt have dairy/eggs. the only thing is some people don’t like the taste of vegan butter, but even then you can just do a good olive oil instead

    What is everyone’s obsession with grains on the side of a heaping pile of grains anyway?
