Hate this diagram because who uses a bread box without any of the other non-chaotic evil options

Drop the bread box and just gently squish the entire loaf before twisting and tucking to basically vacuum seal it. That’s my GOAT
wjrii@lemmy.world 2 years ago
This. For soft crumb American sandwich sliced bread, you want as little air circulation as possible, balanced only by not crushing the loaf. A bread box is a quaint place to toss the bread once you squish the air out, but without the bag it’s basically the same as the chaotic evil option.
jawa21@lemmy.sdf.org 2 years ago
This image is fairly old, and I have disagreed with it from the get go. Chaotic evil is tying as many knots as possible, forcing one to cut the bag open.
Delta_V@lemmy.world 2 years ago
After licking every slice.
ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 2 years ago
Chaotic evil is leaving the bag wide open … in the freezer … behind the three bags of frozen fries … for three weeks … but it’s the only bread you have at 11pm on a Saturday night and you don’t feel like doing or getting anything else to make you sandwich.

what is the bottle hack?
remotelove@lemmy.ca 2 years ago
You put the bread in a bottle and you can just put the cap on it to keep it fresh. You can just pour it into your toaster after that!
PhoreTwunny@lemmy.world 2 years ago
🎶please don’t forget to close my bread that’s in a bottle, yeah🎶
rockSlayer@lemmy.world 2 years ago
Cut the top off of a 2 liter bottle and put the bread bag through the neck, spread it around the neck, then put on the bottle cap.
lowleveldata@programming.dev 2 years ago
sounds like a lot of work when I can just leave the bag open
theatomictruth@lemmy.world 2 years ago
- cut the neck off a plastic bottle
- thread the end of the bag through
- fold the bag open around the bottle neck
- close the cap, trapping the bag between the bottle neck and the cap.
I’m sure it works but any other method of closing the bag is better imo, at least for bread.
ObviouslyNotBanana@lemmy.world 2 years ago
Bottle the bread?
Idk
janus2@lemmy.zip 2 years ago
the… the bottle hack is for things like popcorn kernels that you can pour…
whoever closes a bread with the bottle hack is the true evil hiding in plain sight
Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 2 years ago
I do neutral evil because I haven’t seen a reason to do anything else.
TheRealKuni@lemmy.world 2 years ago
You’ve never ended up with stale or moldy bread? I’m envious.
5714@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 years ago
Bread is a stapleware, as such it needs to be eaten. Keeping the bag open for easier (tactical), time-critical access is a thus a necessity.
Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 2 years ago
Because of that? Not that I know of. From it being much past the best before date of course.
ulterno@lemmy.kde.social 2 years ago
I tried the rubber band. I tried the clip. Neither work.
Only the fridge does. And that works well enough. I either tuck it, or I take it all out and keep it on a tray. Open. If I keep it for long enough to make it dehydrated, it’s my fault.
AA5B@lemmy.world 2 years ago
Does anyone still have a bread box? I assume it’s to stop rodents, but hopefully most people don’t have rodents in their house. Does a bread box do anything else, or is that another technology that can fade into history?
Fredselfish@lemmy.world 2 years ago
I bought bread box once but every time we used it the bread wouldn’t last 3 days. Can anyone explain why that was?
x00za@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 years ago
Well first of all, normal bread isn’t supposed to last 3 days. You can only achieve that by sorcery, or what we call chemicals. Another thing is that in some countries bread comes in those single-use plastic bags, which makes it last longer.
So what you experienced is actually normal.
Revan343@lemmy.ca 2 years ago
I have a bread box…which I generally don’t keep my bread in
sentientity@lemm.ee 2 years ago
I have one! I love it, it’s got a magnetic door my cat can’t open is one of my best purchases ever. I use it for baked goods, though, not bread. It’s too humid where I am to keep bread fresh at room temperature.
AA5B@lemmy.world 2 years ago
Never thought of that - I usually put baked goods in the microwave to keep them sort of fresh. Is it big enough for a 9”x12” baking pan? Tall enough for a layer cake?
lazycouchpotato@lemmy.world 2 years ago
Chaotic neutral for me. The twist tie goes in my twist tie collection.
BigBananaDealer@lemm.ee 2 years ago
idk why anyone would choose anything but chaotic neutral
unless you own a breadbox
lazycouchpotato@lemmy.world 2 years ago
Exactly! Everything else is just extra steps for the same result.
GladiusB@lemmy.world 2 years ago
I put mine in the fridge. Why? It lasts longer.
StThicket@reddthat.com 2 years ago
That’s actually false. Bread is one of the few items that turn bad quicker in the fridge than on the counter. www.realsimple.com/food-recipes/…/bread-storage
dingus@lemmy.world 2 years ago
I live in a hot, humid environment. Keeping bread in the fridge helps it to stay good for multiple weeks. If I leave it out, it molds way quicker. I also sometimes will store bread in the freezer to keep it fresh even longer if I know I’m just going to make toast out of it.
GladiusB@lemmy.world 2 years ago
Oh I don’t mean homemade. I meant regular bread. I don’t bake. I cook. But good to know!
atx_aquarian@lemmy.world 2 years ago
Yeah, good point, but that article isn’t talking about what’s in this picture.
Store-bought sandwich bread usually can be kept in the fridge without much change in texture. That’s because it often contains additives and preservatives that keep it fresh longer.
Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 2 years ago
Freezer is my preference. Stays good for very long and keeps the texture and freshness. Put it in toaster or microwave after if in a hurry, otherwise you can just put slices in the fridge so you have unfrozen ones for the breakfast.
ObviouslyNotBanana@lemmy.world 2 years ago
I just never bake mine.

candyman337@sh.itjust.works 2 years ago
Jokes on you, de-aired, twisted, twist tied and tucked
Jessica@discuss.tchncs.de 2 years ago
When you say de-air, do you gently squish the whole loaf as well to effectively vacuum seal it?
candyman337@sh.itjust.works 2 years ago
Yes
Chef_Boyardee@lemm.ee 2 years ago
I use a bread box and still put the bread in its original bag with the original clip.
EarthShipTechIntern@lemm.ee 2 years ago
True lawful good. Bread box alone is chaotic evil disguised as lawful good.
CH3DD4R_G0BL1N@sh.itjust.works 2 years ago
Where does “twist and pull back over the loaf” fall? Same as twist and tuck essentially?
ArtificialLink@lemy.lol 2 years ago
Its really just the best method no need for some stupid ass bottle cap. But it seals it just as well.
Nelots@lemm.ee 2 years ago
Yeah, it’s really just chaotic neutral but fancier.
ramenshaman@lemmy.world 2 years ago
I think in my entire life I’ve only ever seen one or maybe 2 bread boxes.
Kolanaki@yiffit.net 2 years ago
I have an old bread box; but I don’t use it for bread.
Madison420@lemmy.world 2 years ago
Did you know you can put your weed in there?
MeDuViNoX@sh.itjust.works 2 years ago
10th option: eat the entire loaf in one sitting.
mayo@lemmy.world 2 years ago
I was thinking that this matrix is missing an accompanying time-chart but I don’t know how to plot the y axis.
jadedwench@lemmy.world 2 years ago
I tie a slip knot. That is stupidly easy to do/undo, but apparently I am hated for it.
mayo@lemmy.world 2 years ago
Slipknots are ok but I think you may as well do a mean twist and tuck unless the bread is travelling. The knot can go back if you share bread with others.
jadedwench@lemmy.world 2 years ago
Not sure I understand what you are saying. I do a real big twist and then a slip knot. The twist doesn’t come undone. I am out of bread or I would take a picture.
Floey@lemm.ee 2 years ago
Hair tie. I always have 1, or 2, or 3 in my pocket.
NegativeLookBehind@lemmy.world 2 years ago
Chaotic neutral is the one true answer because it requires no secondary sealing device (clip, twist tie, rubber band, etc). It also allows you to open the bag with one hand.
Bruncvik@lemmy.world 2 years ago
Where’s the “four slices per freezer bag and keep in the freezer” option? Or am I just too good for this chart?
chilicheeselies@lemmy.world 2 years ago
Omg how much plastic do you go through?
GaMEChld@lemmy.world 2 years ago
I imagine you could reuse those.
mayo@lemmy.world 2 years ago
When I buy frozen meat (maybe once every couple months) I unpackage, then repackage them into unfreezable portions with small plastic lunch bags/saran.
If someone has a better way please let me know. I don’t have infinite tupperware drawer space though.
JohnnyH842@lemmy.world 2 years ago
Twist & Tuck gang
einlander@lemmy.world 2 years ago
No slip knot?
SkunkWorkz@lemmy.world 2 years ago
jadedwench@lemmy.world 2 years ago
I do the same. I don’t understand why it puzzles some people. They look at me like I put a padlock on it and I have to undo it for them, which is just pulling the end…
thelsim@sh.itjust.works 2 years ago
A slipknot works great! It’s done in a second and easily undone as well.
Annoyed_Crabby@monyet.cc 2 years ago
Lawful good and chaotic good is so much work for diminishing return. The best way to do it is to use back the tag so you know when to throw this bag of still good bread into the fridge.
Xeroxchasechase@lemmy.world 2 years ago
I’m chaotic neutral!
SuperSpruce@lemmy.zip 2 years ago
I bounce between lawful neutral and chaotic neutral. Huh.
BeardedGingerWonder@feddit.uk 2 years ago
Yeah, largely depends on whether I’ve lost the clip in the 30s I had the bag open
Grass@sh.itjust.works 2 years ago
None of this shit. Homemade uncooked unrisen or partially risen loaves in the freezer, cooked ones in cloth bread bags. If you don’t suck ass at making bread it will always be eaten before it goes stale but its still toastable or usable for cooking. Or just adjust loaf size to match consumption rate. In my region anything in plastic will go moldy before you get halfway, especially purchased loaves.
bonus: secret ingredient for general purpose slicing loaf. 6 to 10 tbsp of chestnut honey. The honey itself smells kinda iffy and tastes aeird but baking it in bread gives it this amazing aroma. Toasting brings out the aroma again after it cools. Great for real bread ice cream sandwiches, especially toasted if you do it as a bowl.
deadly4u@lemmy.ca 2 years ago
Chaotic neutral and the bread goes in the freezer
flerp@lemm.ee 2 years ago
I’m lawful neutral until the clip breaks, which it always does, and then I go chaotic neutral.
RangerJosie@lemmy.world 2 years ago
Chaotic Neutral
POTOOOOOOOO@reddthat.com 2 years ago
Turns out I am Lawful Evil.
Blackmist@feddit.uk 2 years ago
Just put it in the freezer in the bag it comes in.
Most of this shit has been frozen before it reaches the supermarket anyway.

Oh, you’ve got a carb nibbling goblin, too? If we accidentally forget to put away the bagels, the bread, the muffins, the cookies, the cake, the insert whatever carb treat here… We will inevitably wake up to find tiny holes chewed out of the bag or box and shredded crumbs everywhere, including stuck to the little asshole’s fur.
