When was yeast discovered? Who made the first light, fluffy rolls?

“3.5 tons of flour, making it a site for mass production. “
It took a lot of organization to feed all the trades men ...stone cutters , wood workers , Those old boys weren't as simple and primitive as some would have us believe.

The bakery’s flour is now far past its prime.Nonsense! I never pay attention to those 'use by' dates.

Let’s see: No High Fructose Corn Syrup. No Glycolates. No artificial sweeteners. No artificial coloring. No fluoride in the water. And at this point, no lead pipes. Outside from dawn to dusk. Plenty of exercise. That would make for a pretty healthy life.

Reminds me of a solid movie
First Cow=abt the first dairy cow in the pacific northwest-resulting in the first donuts etc.....
I can’t imagine living without donuts-I may be overrating the movie a bit. But it was a decent piece on the times.

That's even older than this one:
Hofbäckerei Edegger-Tax is the oldest operating bakery in Graz, Austria, founded in 1569..

This bakery must have been active while the kingdom of Urartu existed. Didn’t the Urartians have a system of writing? They were rivals to the Assyrians, after all.

“No High Fructose Corn Syrup.”
no diabites? no high blood pressure? it would be interesting to know what daily life was really like back then .... but I suppose every life has it's own challenges and rewards.
The simple things in life don't change much over time...
