      Funny thing is, where I come from, a bunch of those “better breads” wouldn’t even be considered bread because we use an entire separate word for white breads. I wish English also had segregation of breads by color, because it’s easier to tell what people are talking about.

      For example, garlic bread for me would mean dark bread, because that’s how it usually is here - but apparently for Americans, it’s usually white bread. Which actually kinda sounds better than what we get.

      I guess what I’m saying is that there’s tons of great breads out there, but English makes it difficult to know what someone is talking about, because most of y’all are eating sai (white bread), not leib (darker breads), but using the word that I’d use to describe leib.
