To anyone who does anything other than twist and tuck:
get a life
I use the clip if I can find it…
… I mean, was RIGHT HERE a second ago…
I use the clip until there’s enough slack to do the twist and tuck.
Are you me?
There is always enough slack. That’s where they put the clip.
They’re not as good since switching to cardboard anyway
My hoarding of the plastic tabs for the past decade is finally coming in handy.
My ability to lose them immediately after grabbing first slice has not.
I twist and roll the excess bag over the bread. Kinda like how you do socks
This is the way.
I’m with you!
Breadboxes are bullshit and you know it
They just make me forget about the bread.
Sounds like an scp report.
What bread? What are we talking about again?
Idk man I think I have to buy one.
Sometimes my mind needs a break.
Do people still use these? I haven’t seen one since my great aunt’s house in the early '90s, and I’m certain it was never used for bread. Still remember the smell of that kitchen. Picked up the early, mineral tones of her weird, dank basement. God damn, I played a lot of Megaman 2 in that basement.
My brother liked to tear open the bag in the middle, then leave it as is in the open.
See, this is more like chaotic evil. Most of this chart is just normal behavior.
Satan fears your brother
Is your brother a cat?

I’ve started making my own bread and keeping it in a bread box. This alignment is called “lawful insufferable”
Bread boxes promote mold growth.
I haven’t found anything that isn’t akin to old wives tales backing this claim up. Got any sources?
“retaining a small amount of humidity whilst also allowing a small amount of ventilation. Some bread boxes don’t allow any ventilation, but these can cause too much moisture retention and allow faster mold growth”

Bread should be stored in a cool dry place to insure it lasts longest. Breadboxes are the opposite of ideal.
Bread boxes are antiquated tech in a time where bread was meant to be eaten faster and as a method of rodent protection. The same with pie cupboards/safes.
From your own link:
They create an ideal environment for bread since they’re cool, dark, and relatively dry. They act similarly to a plastic bag and trap some moisture, but they also release excess moisture through airflow, so you get the best of both worlds.
It sounds like it’s just bad if you don’t know how to use one.
Mine is just a foodsafe plastic bin which gets cleaned out every week. My loaves scarcely last long enough to go off anyway 🤭
See? Insufferable.
I worked at a restaurant that was big on breakfast for many years. When our manager needed to open a new bag, she would tear a hole it half way down the bag and start pulling bread from the middle. The only option we really had was to put it into another bag.

I am lawful and chaotic neutral.
yeah, we all know air can‘t twist, chaotic neutral is sufficient
Twist and reuse clip? Absolutely.
Lawful neutral. I’m surprised more people don’t just use the clip that came with it. It’s kept the bread fresh the whole time up to you acquiring it, so why not keep using it?
Because bread is stocked daily, so the clip hasn’t done much, and many of the methods are a tighter seal or just faster
Because those little fuckers are fun to flick across the room, then get lost under the couch.
Canada Bread has switched to using paper clips. They deform and break after so many reapplies. The twist and tuck is the next best option.
I haven’t had a problem with them so far, but I can see how they are more flimsy compared to the plastic ones
Chaotic neutral. Only way to live.
I agree

Chaotic neutral, then in the fridge. Quick and easy, stays fresh.
This post right here, officer!
Road kill
Wait, what’s the “bottle hack?”
cut off top of soda bottle, pull bag through hole, screw on top.
That sounds like the nost tiktok livehack omg i’ve been doing it wrong all my life, i was todays years old when i learned this lifehack, ever
It eventually gives you the firmness of toast without the toaster
This should be chaotic evil.
I scrolled through so many comments to see if anyone was just going to let that one go un-asked! I started reading the chart from the bottom and got to chaotic good last and went from leaning back in my chair to fully forward when I read it. Was like car tire screech “What the fuck is the bottle hack?!?!?” lol
What about the knot that pulls apart effortlessly? I’ve been doing those all my life
I tighten bread bag knots to punish people for their hubris.
I am so grateful to the person who taught me that. I didn’t forget about you, Alice.
Proudly Chaotic neutral.
imagine tying a knot on the end of the bag, as far from the bread as possible, and just cutting it off and retying every time you want bread
every time you want bread
And now I wonder why did I even stop at this thread at all.
Flip lawful and true neutral, otherwise good chart
I dont understand bread bins. How do they not just make the bread stale
They do, you should always use one of the other methods to close up the bag, then put it in the bin
Depends on the bread and the bin. My parents have a pottery one, it keeps proper bread perfectly fresh. Of course you do need to eat a bit at least every day/every other day, because the cut side will dry out eventually.
Maybe that’s mostly the bread doing all the work though. I don’t know how you can store toast for any practical amount of time without consuming more preservatives than bread, lol
If you leave bread fully enclosed in plastic, all the moisture from the crumb moves into the crust and makes it soggy. But it doesn’t dry out.
If you leave it just open, it dries out.
That’s why (real) bread is best stored in a paper bag or in an unglazed ceramic bread bin. Those two materials allow for a slow exchange of air, therefore keeping the crust crunchy and the crumb soft.
I guess I dont have to think about this for my loaf of bleached supermarket bread
what if i like soggy bread
makes it (meaning the crust) soggy
Not really dripping with water, but it equalises the moisture between crumb and crust.
That’s not a concern for wonderbread, since the crust was never crunchy to begin with.
