Is this the most American post I've ever seen?

Maybe?

A while ago I made cheeseburgers for a family gathering. My dad bought a loaf of bread on the side, and I quote, "just in case".

I buy it. Kroger has some amazing artisan garlic bread.

Wish it were a simulation. The truth is much sadder. All that bread gets tossed daily into the bin and not even offered to the homeless.

What is even a boule!!? /s

A french bakery is called a boulangerie, because for centuries bread was prepared in a bowl, or boule. That gave the loaves a particular round shape, like an inverted bowl

Amazingly, it wasn't until the late 17th century that someone thought, "You know what, I could make this into different shapes, like maybe a stick shape!"

...do your friends not eat bread?

I get offered bread pretty regularly... it's just there, available, all the time; it's a simple offer. Are you never at their houses?

I love these big crazy breads. They're great on their own and I sometimes make massive dagwood sandwiches with them and slice them up
