Bread is CIVILIZATION
In 1900 the average French person was eating 900g of bread per day.
I'm working on it to reach this level again.

I see extreme anti-carb mentality like teetotalling when the health goal is really just don't be a drunkard.
But im allergic to gluten :(
Gluten-free bread exists
Gluten free bread lacks any of the pleasant qualities of actual bread (my gluten allergy is "makes you have the shits" and not "kills you")
You can get good biscuits and cake without gluten. Good cereal. Passable pasta. Even decent pizza crust.
Not bread. Not by a long shot. The best gluten free bread in the world is just decent at its best, not to mention costing 15x the price. REALLY not worth it.

We should stage a conquest of bread.
Simple: I'm a carb based life form.
I only accept the darkest, blackest bread there is. I crave the fiber
The vast majority of breads are adulterated to a point of being virtually fraudulent. At least in the US there is pretty much only two brands of bread that are actually good, and most people have access to only one, if any. Here's a video that goes into detail about it:

The darkest bread there is, is usually bread that is articifially dark. Here in the Netherlands we have bread colored as chocolate, that would actually be white but is made to look dark so people think it's healthier.
Based and yeast-pilled
Bread is like the shady dealer standing just inside a dark alley who, when somebody passes by on the street, goes:
"Hey you!"
"Yes, you."
"Would you like a little something to make you feel good?"
* Opens long coat, showing a collection of cheeses, butter, peanut butter, jams, ham and other cold meats, and other delicious things that aren't all that healthy *
"Oh I really shouldn't, I ..."
"Come on dude, this one's partly mouldy."
"I TAKE FOUR! I MEAN FIVE!"
I like how in the menu the chef is like -- and I'm paraphrasing of course -- you assholes can't have bread cuz you don't deserve it.
