While it seemed like a fun prank at the time, I realize my prank fire extinguishers full of leaded gasoline were a mistake.

    I think sliced bread is overrated as fuck. It used to be nice back when people couldn’t just buy knives for cheap, but nowadays it just means getting stale bread faster.

      For some types of bread, the machine can do it much more uniformly and without crushing. This can be difficult for humans.

      But sliced bread has become something else that doesn’t exist with loaves. You can’t buy an unsliced loaf of ultra-processed white bread.

        You can get a wide variety of both sliced and unsliced loaves in pretty much every supermarket in my area. The ultra-processed american type bread is something else entirely and it’s also a bad idea too, like pretty much all ultra-processed foods. Can that stuff even get stale? I remember it staying exactly the same up until it grows mold.

      For pan loaves, people store it in a plastic bag to keep the crust soft.

      Pan loaves should be presliced, stone baked loaves with thick crust should not.
