Exclamation Shocking information regarding Bread!

Research on bread indicates that:
1. More than 98 percent of convicted felons are bread users.
2. Fully HALF of all children who grow up in bread-consuming households score below average on standardized tests.
3. In the 18th century, when virtually all bread was baked in the home, the average life expectancy was less than 50 years; infant mortality rates were unacceptably high; many women died in childbirth; and diseases such as typhoid, yellow fever, and influenza ravaged whole nations.

4. More than 90 percent of violent crimes are committed within 24 hours of eating bread.
5. Bread is made from a substance called "dough." It has been proven that as little as one pound of dough can be used to suffocate a mouse. The average American eats more bread than that in one month!

6. Primitive tribal societies that have no bread exhibit a low incidence of cancer, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's disease, and osteoporosis.
7. Bread has been proven to be addictive. Subjects deprived of bread and given only water to eat begged for bread after as little as two days.
8. Bread is often a "gateway" food item, leading the user to "harder" items such as butter, jelly, peanut butter, and even cold cuts.
9. Bread has been proven to absorb water. Since the human body is more than 90 percent water, it follows that eating bread could lead to your body being taken over by this absorptive food product, turning you into a soggy, gooey bread-pudding person.

10. Newborn babies can choke on bread.
11. Bread is baked at temperatures as high as 400 degrees Fahrenheit! That kind of heat can kill an adult in less than one minute.
12. Most American bread eaters are utterly unable to distinguish between significant scientific fact and meaningless statistical babbling.



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In light of these frightening statistics, it has been proposed that the following bread restrictions be made:

1. No sale of bread to minors.
2. A nationwide "Just Say No To Toast" campaign, complete celebrity TV spots and bumper stickers.
3. A 300 percent federal tax on all bread to pay for all the societal ills we might associate with bread.
4. No animal or human images, nor any primary colors (which may appeal to children) may be used to promote bread usage.
5. The establishment of "Bread-free" zones around schools.

You know I've had my suspicions for some time. Apparently a bloke called Jesus ate some and died shortly after in great pain. Its all starting to make sense now!

Bread is supposed to be the STAFF of life? :(

It would be safer to say that all the Additives are what makes it NO good.
I will for sure have to slow down my consumption of a loaf a day :alien2:

Well now, can we expand on this interesting theme with other known food facts? For example 100% of people who eat carrots will die.

These type of threads make my blood boil!!!!

Why is bread being singled out when we all know it's wheat products in general.

When is the government going to act?

Don't get me started on Rye!

I have given up the smokes but there are a few things I will not give up and Bread is one of them :

I don't eat bread anymore. So I'm ok.

Though I know a man who has a whole loaf to himself with EVERY meal.

He did it at our house once, when we offered him some leftovers. It was quite rude I thought.
