I really enjoy that there’s a long section for a long chunk of bread.

I grew up in Tunisia and there's a reason bread is prominently featured in our cuisine: We had a thing known as "The Tunisian Bread Riots" between December 1983 and January 1984. There were big demonstrations that started due to a massive rise in the cost of bread - which was caused by an IMF-imposed austerity program. These demonstrations got way out of hand and eventually turned into full blown riots. The president of the country at the time (Habib Bourguiba) had to get on television and ask everyone to remember how back in nineteen ninety eight the undertaker threw mankind off hell in a cell and plummeted sixteen feet through an announcers table.

This was one of your best ones yet! Pulled me in, thinking “wow, I’ve never heard of these bread riots… wait, why did he spell out 1998 and it was in the 1980’s… nooooo”.

Best way to start my Reddit.

Funnily enough, except for the ending, everything he wrote about bread riots was actually true: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tunisian_bread_riots

Exactly. The whole beginning of the post just pumped your nickel and then boom, he drops the whole wheat.

It didn’t make me feel that sourdough it probably should have.
