“I find that a duck’s opinion of me is influenced by whether or not I have bread. A duck loves bread, but he does not have the capability to buy a loaf. That’s the biggest joke on the duck ever. If I worked at a convenience store, and a duck came in and stole a loaf of bread, I would let him go. I’d say, ‘Come back tomorrow, bring your friends!’ ― Mitch Hedberg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FYQEf93tZO0 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FYQEf93tZO0]

Everybody talking about the ducks, but is no-one else absolutely jarred by the man hating on the tiniest improvement on the abomination that is American wonderbread? Like come on, be happy that you are going one step closer to salvation and actual tasty bread by buying soft sponge with at least some flax seed added. Flax seeds are delicious.

Traditionally baked bread doesn’t “squish”. It had to be durable without all the modern conveniences. You just couldn’t waste calories.

Traditional doesn’t mean better. If it seems that way, then it’s because the more horrendous practices have been abandoned. I’m just saying, if it squishes, then it’s just “American bread” with seeds thrown in.

I eat a lot of bread.

In my opinion a crust is a must and traditional is better than American ¯⁠\⁠_⁠༼⁠ ⁠•́⁠ ͜⁠ʖ⁠ ⁠•̀⁠ ⁠༽⁠_⁠/⁠¯

If you’re happy with your state of things, that’s ok for you

in Germany “modern” bread is the same as “traditional” bread

There is a huge difference between the bread from supermarkets and that from bakeries like Hofpfisterei in Munich, that really keep traditions alive. You ever notice how much of the brown bread in supermarkets is not actually whole wheat? It’s colored brown with caramel.

If it says Vollkorn then it’s 90%+ whole-meat. If it doesn’t then it isn’t, your usual “brown bread” in Germany is a Mischbrot.
