do your grocery stores not all have bakeries in house, too?
like, I get that Walmart and the like can price out local bakeries, and then sell you shit “fresh” bread instead once they’ve forced the local small businesses to close. but it’s better than the stuff that never moulds, yeah?
Walmart baked in house bread is close to the never molds variety. It uses modern GMO wheat with added preservatives and shortcut chemicals to reduce prep time from days to hours. Not to mention added sugars. Defending it would be like defending Subways “fresh baked bread” which isn’t even legally allowed to be called bread in certain European countries. At one point they were caught putting the stuff in foam yoga mats in their bread.
In my opinion, that “bread” is a very distant cousin of homemade sourdough spelt (or whatever locally sourced whole grains was available) traditional known as bread.
Yeah, I’m also from the US and my grocery store sells pretty solid breads. I also have solid French and Italian bakeries walking distance from my house. I also live in the suburbs.
Some people only have Dollar General.
US very big and very varied. So I’m from Jersey, if that helps, because I think it’s important to be specific. We have great bread, great bagels, great pizza and for this I am very thankful.
Dunno where you’re at but Trader Joe’s sells these half-baked breads, so you just pop it in the oven and bring it over the finish line. They’re honestly not half bad, and you get freshly baked bread.
I could make bread right now. But I just want to eat bread right now. I don’t wanna wait for it to rise and cook 😩
As an USAmerican. The absolute travesty that we sell in the grocery store is one of the worst crimes against humanity.
I want to live in world where we’re all walking distance from a bakery that makes real bread daily.

Super Walmarts and Neighborhood Markets actually have bakeries and make real bread, too.

I guarantee you will still want to eat some bread later, and you’ll even thank your past self for making the bread

1st world problems
Do you think people in other countries make their own bread? 🤨
Bread remains one of the cheapest foods. Get some frozen bread, rinse it quickly with water, then bake it.
As good as fresh, dirt cheap, and you don’t have to bake.
