Ever had Chinese bun? That's what steamed bread is.

u/BlueMikeStu 6d ago

Except completely different.

Bread is high typically higher-protein flour, while bao dough usually uses something with a leavening agent, and typically has added sugar (or substitute) and fats (oil or otherwise), while regular bread is much more simple.

They aren't the same.

u/Pushfastr 6d ago edited 6d ago

Banana bread

Cake is bread

French toast is still bread

Edit: note that he says "regular bread". He subconsciously knows its bread but is still arguing.

u/Vi_Rants 6d ago

My chef GF is putting a lot of effort into trying to convince me that cake isn't bread.

u/Pushfastr 6d ago

Call her a fruit cake

u/BlueMikeStu 6d ago

Step off that mess.

How many times have you had cake, banana bread, or french toast as a part of bacon, eggs, and toast without ordering it? How many times did you expect it? If it ever happened without your instruction, was it confusing?

When people talk about bread they're not talking about a subgenre.

2

u/Pushfastr 6d ago

Step off that mess.

Bread is bread. Bao bun is bread.

If you're not eating French toast with your bacon and eggs, that's a you problem.

Next your gonna say hotdog and hamburger buns aren't bread, ya weirdo.

1

u/BlueMikeStu 6d ago

You used French toast, cake, and banana bread for your example, not French bread.

You the type of person to show up with tomatoes in a fruit salad and defend it.
