While it seemed like a fun prank at the time, I realize my prank fire extinguishers full of leaded gasoline were a mistake.

I think sliced bread is overrated as fuck. It used to be nice back when people couldn’t just buy knives for cheap, but nowadays it just means getting stale bread faster.
For some types of bread, the machine can do it much more uniformly and without crushing. This can be difficult for humans.
You can buy your own bread slicer

My appartment is too small for this kind of stuft. Buying sliced bread is fine.
Of course
i got a like 30 year old electric bread slicer, never sharpened the blade, still cuts like brand new, sometimes the crust gets stuck when its a super fresh super crispy crusted bread, but its amazing.
Thanks, i laughed. ^^
Those aren’t good types of bread, though.
I recommend a very nice bread knife! I have a mediocre bread knife that was like 15USD like 15 years ago and it still saws solid slices of soft bread without schmushing the bread!
I’m mostly just commenting on why it was such a big deal in the time that it happened rather than today. Today, we do have more machines, easier access to knives, and generally less domestic work to do than was the case in this era. I do own a breadknife, though I rarely eat bread and it’s mostly denser loaves when I do (a kind of sandwich bread the wife prefers or something like Baurenbrot for my tastes).
For pan loaves, people store it in a plastic bag to keep the crust soft.
Pan loaves should be presliced, stone baked loaves with thick crust should not.
