orson smellesevery time ciabatta is eaten or mentioned in my presence i will tell everyone did you know ciabatta wasnt invented until 1982, it is younger than beyonce and natalie portman and pitbull. people always scoff and pull out their phones and then frown and look troubled. i am the ciabatta ruiner
Bradley Dragonne, Esq.@lennie not much whats ciabatta with you
Corsair of Mastodon@lennie I don't know if it is true but I heard they wanted a bread to compete with the French Baguette but for Italy
@whiskeysailor it is and that's right, i just imagined they would have got around to it sooner
@lennie too busy focused on the pasta game
Scott Trudeau@whiskeysailor @lennie While not quite as modern, baguettes as we know them only became common in France in the 1920s after a change in labor law banning bakers from working before 4am.

Laser (it's been a good run)@lennie I think a lot about how my dad was 39 (my age) when the high five was invented
@Laser this is amazing...the high five seems so eternal
@lennie yeah I just assumed there was like, Mayan hieroglyphs of dudes going "up top" after a good game of hip-ball or whatever

OsakaJack@Laser @lennie And something really interesting, the LOW-five aparently predates the high-five by FIFTY YEARS.
like jam or bootlacesbig gap between the high and the low, but knowing how kids (and tbf, dads) can be, I guess it took at most only a few minutes to come up with "too slow!"
John Mullinax@idlestate @osakajack @Laser @lennie Interestingly, "too slow" predates all of them, going back at least to the time of saber tooth tigers.
suldrew 🚲🏳️🌈@idlestate @osakajack @Laser @lennie I guarantee gimme five / up high / down low / too slow was around well before 1979

[MOVED to chitter.xyz] Okesska@lennie google result: "italy created them in response to the popularity of french baguettes"
"in response" is so funny
imagining the italian government convening a very angry and desperate council like "we need to fix tourism NOW"
Cảm ơn

ArmageddJen@lennie oooh TIL ciabatta and I were born the same year!
@ItsJenNotGoblin ciabatta, jen, john carpenter's the thing...an excellent draft class
@lennie A group of all stars, really. First ballot Hall of Famers for sure
Darin Warling 
@lennie So…roughly the same time tiramisu was invented.

dezi@lennie @PublicChaffinch still tasty
ShipScrewUnscrewer@lennie How dare you! Also that makes currywurst (invented september 4th 1949) older than ciabatta! Take this, italy!
Dr. Alissa, Turbo-Nerd@lennie I would eat it if it were 2 months old. It is the superior bread.
AmbularD@lennie That would explain why I've never heard of it before. Why would you want to eat bread that's mostly air?

🐚 Undo Influence 🐚Knowing this makes me feel real pity for it, instead of my usual hatred. So... thanks?
Curse the 1980s.
Ben from CDS@lennie every time someone mentions ciabatta around me I say "hooray for batter" which is probably more irritating tbh.
Oh No Na@lennie more like peace-of-mind ruiner. I was fine a minute ago and now I need to buy myself ciabatta so I can have it with butter and honey and sesame spread. Hmmm. You demon!
Marcie Milletary@lennie All hail the Ciabatta Ruiner! I will follow in your mighty footsteps and ruin ciabatta for my friends and family. 😂
Chris [list of emoji]Why would learning that good things are still being invented be troubling to someone? I don't get it?
brb, checking my focaccia facts
Hannah is trying to cope@lennie This is amazing! I find it oddly heartening - we think that all the wonderful things have been discovered, that there are no more worlds left to conquer. And yet a fella just invented ciabatta! It's younger than Banana Man!
DanDDoes@lennie I love that for you!😉 😂

Big 'ol bimbo@lennie I can't help but think how cool that is. It implies we do not know all the breads and there are whole carby galaxies of doughy goodness to understand and explore.
GreenDotGuy@lennie I like telling people born after 1985 about how 'body wash', 'conditioner', and 'exfoliating' weren't daily things before the mid-90s. When I was a kid, almost every shower had a bar of soap and a bottle of shampoo in it, and nothing else. Fancy ladies used conditioner, occasionally.
Jules@lennie is right about ciabatta you know. Mind blown https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ciabatta
Kenneth John Bardsley@lennie
Not bothered. Still tastes great.
Not bothered. Still tastes great.
Silvie@lennie ok, but do you tell them about pane casareccio? Very ciabatta like and it is what was made for centuries. While there are only a few DOP recognized breads, (Pane di Matera from Basilicata,
Coppia Ferrarese,
Sicilian Pagnotta del Dittaino DOP
Pane Casareccio di Genzano
Pane de Altamura from Apulia
Pane Toscano from Tuscany) pane casareccio was found everywhere. And it is very close to a ciabatta.

Hannes@lennie gives me "blue cheese has mold in it" vibes

r҉ustic cy͠be̸rpu̵nk🤠🤖@lennie Ciabatta keeps getting rediscovered over the centuries. The last one just happened to be in 1982
Matthew Adams@lennie and it was exclusively licensed to M&S in the UK which popularised it here. I love the Ciabatta Fact Train.

Krister Renaud@lennie the only age I care about is that of the actual bread in front of me. Preferably the bread is not more than a few hours old.

Stone Bear@lennie Well, today I learnt!
Doug Baker - Elbows Up! 🇨🇦@lennie This is getting spousal: I think you've told me that before.
