    Y’all are like

    Yum! This fermented sheep asshole and rotten cabbage is true food culture!

    But you react to soft sweet bread like a vampire in a 60s horror flick reacts to holy water

      Using every little bit of an animal you have killed in order to not waste the life is actually awful.

      However, prioritising profit over substance, shortening leavening time and adding sugars and preservatives is actually wonderful.

        I didn’t realize Europe had ethical issues with boring cake. If I could roll my eyes any harder at your disingenuousness, they’d pop out of my head.

        No, go back to your foie gras, the absolute paragons of virtue that you are. We will just have to satisfy ourselves with bread that is occasionally shelf stabilized, like the absolute monsters that makes us.

        And all those regional European delicacies are a disgrace to cooking. I love food, but those pickled-shrew-taint type things are disgusting.

        I was commenting on the hypocrisy of you calling what is just a plain soft sweet bread disgusting, while all these European countries get a pass on their regional abominations of food culture.

        I know that plain white bread is not great, but it’s basically just a really boring cake. The ire is unreasonable.
