OG?
No Wonder bread is not available in Europe. At least I can’t find anywhere where it is.
And my guess is that if some specialty stores import it, it is not sold as bread but as an American specialty.
But I don’t see why anyone would import it, it’s just a generic white bread with no particular quality.
No Americans are to blame for what was reported about Americans. Because the report is true.
If it was false, BBC would be to blame.
Do you claim the story is false?
I don’t know of any other country where it’s considered a scandal if a famous woman has hair under her arms.
American audience doesn’t mean everybody in that audience, Americans doesn’t mean everybody either, just enough to make it an issue.
And in both cases it’s more than enough to make it an issue. Because it’s not just a couple of weirdos, it the mainstream media too.
So the broad generalization was made by you in your head, maybe because you felt included, why did you feel included?
Do you think hair under the arms is disgusting?
Funny, some of the best bread here is also some of the cheapest.
As a Dane I eat a lot of rye-bread, and Schwarzbrot is the best IMO.
It is also cheap, because it is very simple to make. And being simple to make, makes it high quality because there aren’t a lot of additives.
But AFAIK the cheap bread in USA is simply illegal in EU, because it uses additives that aren’t allowed here.
Anyways, yes of course you can get quality, but bread should not be expensive just because it is of proper quality, the ingredients used to make good bread are dirt cheap.
quick stop kind of place.
Yes of course, that must be it.
I was in California in the 80’s, and the store bought bread tasted very well back then IMO.
I bought some at a local shop, and used as part of my breakfast I made myself in my hotel room to save money. 😋
No and he doesn’t even write the name of the supermarket.
Which is the real infuriating thing here IMO.
Yes I thought something must be off.
I guess OP was infuriated about the wildly inflated price at this shop.
Not about prices in general.
But that is one oversized bar. 😋
How big are they? There is zero indication that I can see.
I just looked up the prices for a chocolate bar here in Denmark,
The price for a 40-50g chocolate bar is around $2 USD in supermarkets.
We don’t have the ones OP posted, but the price for a 50g Mars bar is $2.20 USD. And that price includes 25% VAT.
Without VAT it’s $1.84 USD.
So the price in the image seems insane.
😋
I think baked goods as a treat would be cakes or cookies.
Also from what I hear in USA bread is generally of very poor quality, but probably better from a baker.
Which goes back to the above: “Americans are crazy. having perfectly natural hair under her armpits would be unacceptably disgusting for an American”
IDK it says BBC America, so I guess the explanation is quite simple.
It’s because Americans are crazy. An having perfectly natural hair under her armpits would be unacceptably disgusting for an American audience.
While torture, killing and poor hygiene is not.
I’ll wait for independent tests, and see what the actually released products perform like.
Goddammit! 4ever I can handle but 5ever that is brutal. 😋
If you have the money Elon Musk has, it’s not really work, it’s a hobby.
Because you can do whatever the fuck you want all day every day. Not a single day is work if you are a billionaire.
Explanation provided, just check context of the post you responded to. I’m not repeating it here to avoid double posting.

AFAIK some apps have the function built in.
I don’t care, just seems like a waste of time and a bit childish IMO.
It’s been a long time since it happened last, but I have experienced users claiming they have me flagged for something.
And sometimes when taken out of context a post can seem bad, but the times it has happened, the opinion quickly turned against them when they “called me out”, and I explained the background.
I basically never see that anymore, IDK maybe I blocked them? Because generally those people are idiots.
What? Never been there, but I can see I have one pretty close by.
Is that a 150g pack. 20,- kr is only about $3 USD, that is cheaper than in USA where it’s apparently about $3.50.
Probably not going there anytime soon, it seems to be heavily dominated by American brands. And we are not buying American in our household.
