bread

Grandpa must've had nightmares about that banana bread. This story goes, that a loving family was baking their grandpa special banana bread, because they assumed that he loved it. As it turns out, this was a massive miscommunication, and grandpa actually despised the bread. Um, hilarious and wholesome, and adorable. Grandpa sounds like a true legend. 

This Tumblr disagreement over whether or not this bread knife is real became a real debate with counterarguments, claims and diagrams. Frankly at first glance it looks like fake bread, but I guess that's why lawyers exist. For some more lawyer Tumblr stuff, here's a tumblr thread on ridiculous court transcripts. For another argument, here's a tumblr user absolutely schooling another on horses.

There's a community on Reddit dedicated to the appreciation of stapling pieces of bread on trees. If this isn't peak internet, I don't know what is. Never know when you might be out exploring nature, when your appetite spikes, and you need a little bite of some bread. Off a tree. 

Amateur Gastroegyptologist Seamus Blackley came across what he very much hopes are isolated strains of yeast off a few 4,500 year old Egyptian pots and figured it would be a good idea to make some bread out of it. He even went as far to make the dough out of grain used around the time the yeast would have been active, since what we know as modern wheat didn't exist at the time. Anyway, he baked a loaf and was able to taste some (hopefully) authentic ancient bread.

Tumblr, being it's own weird-ass self, went on a anthropological news search for preserved food that could result in the ingredients for a well aged grilled cheese. It's a stupid experiment, but hey, why else do we have the internet? Tumblr has done some amazing work, like the time they ran the math on the exact day of Ice Cube's "Good Day"

You've gotta hand it to r/forbiddensnacks  for pointing out all the food-adjacent stuff out there. This stuff might look like crispy fried chicken, scrumptious eggs and fresh ground beef, but in fact it's actually a rock, a mushroom, and a mop. It's kinda fun.

Most things you see throughout the day are inedible, whether you like it or not. In spite of this, there are still tons of things out there that look good to eat. All you can do is wish and look at photos like these. For more, check out r/forbiddensnacks.

Have a look at this collection of stuff. There's something off in every one. And we have plenty more cursed images. You probably won't like them, but that's kind of the point.

The end of a loaf of bread is the heel. It was always the heel, is the heel, and will always be the heel. And also it sucks.

For all the times you've said "sure, it might look delicious now, but it's actually a piece of a shoe." Check out r/ForbiddenSnacks for more of these "treats."

Money doesn't grow on trees and unfortunately that means that sometimes we don't have enough of it. There are some times in life when you have no other choice but to do what you can. Even if that means dumpster diving or trying to find money inside couches at the Goodwill store. Whether it was during your university days when you were living the famous and nutrition-deprived diet of 2 minute noodles, or when you were a child and you thought it was a fun game to use candles at night instead of spending money using electricity, we have all been through times that tested us to our very limits and made us do things we might not be proud of. These Redditors shared their experiences during the most broke periods of their lives and their stories are relatable as hell.

Van Dogh is not to be trifled with, man...

New babies kind of have a reputation for adorable Michelin Man style fat rolls. Apparently, 7-Elevens in Japan have started selling pull apart bread loaves that look exactly like those chubby baby arms. Parents have started taking pictures comparing the two with a hashtag that, according to Uproxx, translates out to #MyBaby'sGotTheBestBreadPhoto.
