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.

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

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

The bread is a lie.

I must be a lie too.

Most reasonable Americans, and the larger worldwide Culinary Arts groups would prefer to wait a day and get them on sale so we can make fresh croutons; if you ever wonder why there's a discount rack that's always near empty in your local bakery, it's probably someone buying out the day old lot for the afforementioned croutons or something like crostini for some kind of appetizer dish.
