Regular bread? Fine.
American „bread”? Naaah.
It’s wild that in Europe the kind of bread Americans eat is sold as toast bread and considered unhealthy. Everything needs to be processed and neat I guess.
Carb Party!

How about Canadian bread? The address on the advert is in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
MrGG@lemmy.ca 4 weeks ago
Neat! That address / intersection is a five minute walk from me! Thanks for pointing it out, I wouldn’t have noticed it otherwise (with the ad being so absurd)
srestegosaurio@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 weeks ago
I was going to comment the same.
Here that wouldn’t be considered bread too.
I like good bread, that’s crap.

for anyone wondering: one slice of TOAST has 134kcal (at least the one I buy), so 6 slices got 804kcal, which isn’t going to satisfy your hunger, it’s malnutrition even, however, you will loose weight very fast on that diet (you’ll also have vitamin and protein deficits in like 12 weeks, so be carefull)
hungryphrog@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 weeks ago
I assumed that this recommends to eat 6 slices of bread daily among with other things.
Corkyskog@sh.itjust.works 4 weeks ago
Nope. No butter, no jam, just bread. Even toasting is discouraged, lest you toast away too many calories.
Squirrelsdrivemenuts@lemmy.world 4 weeks ago
They don’t advice to eat only bread, just to reduce other foods while eating 6 slices if bread. If bread is whole grain and no added sugars, it’s actually a pretty good source for protein, which is what you want to eat a lot of while dieting to maintain muscle mass.
Delphia@lemmy.world 4 weeks ago
I hate to be all “ackchually” but wheat protein kind of sucks for muscle building. Its only about 50% as digestable and effective as the best sources, its still a better source than processed AF white bread if you cant give up the sandwiches. A great many “protein enhanced” things like oats just dump in a bunch of wheat gluten.
It still mostly counts towards your daily goals for average people but anyone looking for “gains” should be aiming to get 50% from “high quality” sources like milk protein, eggs, meat and soy.
random@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 weeks ago
yeah, but I think they’re talking about toast, which isn’t very healthy
FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 4 weeks ago
The late, great Cecil Adams once calculated that you can live for about six months on bread alone, not even water, if you eat six loaves a day.

I love the goofy way in which they tried to make it look like extremely complex science got into it by giving a weird estimate such as “31 minutes and an half”.

NGL I love me some good bread. 🪿

Six slices of bread a day seems ludicrous, but two bagels in a day is perfectly cromulent. I’m conflicted
FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 4 weeks ago
If they’re good enough bagels, two in a meal.

The same couple pictured in the ad died of diabetes and heart failure in the 80s.
dexa_scantron@lemmy.world 4 weeks ago
In their 90s? Gimme some bread and dancing then!
FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 4 weeks ago
I would have thought lung cancer.

Read the title as crab party and was disappointed when crabs didn’t join the rave.
FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 4 weeks ago
You can’t make a Krabby Patty without bread.
shalafi@lemmy.world 4 weeks ago
This has been known since prehistory. FFS, we started agriculture to grow the nutritious grains we had found for food and beer, 12,000 years ago.
And now today! Neolithic tips and tricks!

Except they’re wrong! Bread especially the white bread they seem to be touting in this ad, is an inflammatory and contributes to brain fog, joint pain, muscle pain, depression, and yes weight gain.
They’ve got it ALL wrong.
Flocklesscrow@lemm.ee 4 weeks ago
But for a short while, it made the shareholders incredible gains…
FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 4 weeks ago
To be fair, you need brain fog to listen to the ultra-white brand of popular music from the 1930s that those two are dancing to.
Corkyskog@sh.itjust.works 4 weeks ago
I like how they had to clarify that you van only get a half hour with the waltz… if you are going to be doing the trot, you only get like 28 minutes of dancing off that bread.
rain_worl@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
bread helps you reduce safety!
SatansMaggotyCumFart@lemmy.world 4 weeks ago
You can dance all night on some MDMA.
FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 4 weeks ago
Sure, but bread is legal.
And you can probably dance a lot longer if you have ergot poisoning, so make sure you buy that country bread the Amish are selling on the roadside.
Agent641@lemmy.world 4 weeks ago
How many slices of MDMA?
boomzilla@programming.dev 4 weeks ago
0.000006 if you’re microdosing
SatansMaggotyCumFart@lemmy.world 4 weeks ago
Depends how thick they are.
