Just because people in history didn’t have technology doesn’t mean they were dumb. Sliced bread came about before there was specific packaging for it and before the bread was full of sugar and preservatives. The original sliced bread was a jumbled mess that spoiled quickly. I really hate it when people assume primitive = stupid. Many of the concepts, laws, and equations that drive our technology, that are still used to this day, were conceived by people that didn’t even have indoor plumbing. 19th century Prussian officers had better knowledge of calculus than the average modern college graduate.

@traveller23e

Жыл бұрын

Well, pre-sliced bread is kinda a dumb concept...The advantage of not slicing until you need to is with most kinds of bread the crust will help keep the inside from getting stale, making it last longer. The alternative I've seen in modern sliced breads is to pump them so full of preservatives that they'll mold before they go stale. Unfortunately this sacrifices taste and texture for convenience, at least in my opinion, although the fact that "bakery" sections of grocery stores selling non-presliced bread are a thing in the US would imply that I'm far from alone in that thinking.

I would argue that a major point was also the longevity of sliced bread, i.e. it goes off a lot quicker and when rationing is a thing, you want to emphasize food stuffs that last longer (y'know, blue point stuff). Of course I say that as a European where pre-sliced bread is rather new and hugely unpopular, which in turn stems from the fact that I could easily get bread from my local super market that's still warm to hot-ish from being fresh out of the oven. "Destroying" fresh food by slicing it leads just to a gigantic drop in quality.

Yes,people actually did slice bread before the advent of PRE-sliced bread.A lot of people in these comments seem to think that nobody ever thought to slice a loaf of bread with a knife or do they think that ppl either tore chunks off the bread or had to eat the whole loaf in one sitting?This generation has truly seen the death of logic.

As a continental european I never got the idea of pre-sliced bread. That was until I found myself on holiday in Ireland and we bought some bread and they offered to pre-slice it for us. Good thing we accepted the offer. That bread would have been impossible to cut with a normal bread knife. It would just have desintegrated. I guess, pre-sliced bread does make sense if your bread is softer then the science in Reboot-Trek....

The typical European bread is made from only four ingredients, it has a thick crust, and is very healthy. The ancient Romans prepared the bread two thousands years ago with this same recipe. The UK-US sliced bread recipe contain many dozens of ingredients; it is very dissimilar from the traditional EU bread (which in the US it is called San Francisco bread), and I'm convinced that isn't that healthy, for what it is more of a cake than real bread...

I think it would be half as interesting to know why, when we taste artificial flavors we know it to be the thing it's made to simulate despite them not really tasting the same at all. For example, eat a strawberry candy and we go "that's strawberry" when it really doesn't taste like a real strawberry at all. Is this just conditioning or is there something more to it?
