    Lying. They reposted from a Reddit post that shows an eight dollar Starbucks sandwich.

      Still a stupid price for a crap sandwich. As I said in another reply, come to France and you will get the same thing for half the price. However, it will be nice (can you beat french bread? I think not)

          As an English person, a simple white cottage loaf cannot be beat.

          But I also love French and German breads.

          Fucking hell I love bread.

            I may live in France, but I am English too. A simple white cottage loaf is great, that is indisputable. However the availability is laughable.

            When I lived in Portsmouth, there were 2 bakeries on the whole island. 2!! in my little town here we have 4 artisan bakers, plus 3 supermarkets that all sell really good bread. Just round the corner from my house there is a farm that sells bread (made completely in house) every Friday afternoon and people take the afternoon off work and drive 2 hours to buy it.

            French bread wins hands down.

            However I agree with you on one thing: I love bread!

          Wars have been fought for less.

          In fact, it would not surprise me if an argument about bread was a factor in WW1.

          Well that depends on the baguette. A cheap baguette moulée I agree. A nice tradition will be take around 72 hours to mature to the point it can successfully be used for violence.
