Bread would require wheat, which would require agriculture which we are told only started ~10k years ago. And creationists used to get mocked when they claimed Neanderthals were humans with culture, language, clothes, and tools.

If a Neanderthal got on the bus with you today they’d look like a perfectly normal human.

“Bread would require wheat, which would require agriculture which we are told only started ~10k years ago”

Nope, from the link “”It seems the Neanderthals smashed or ground then soaked a mix of wild grains and grasses, wild pulses - including wild lentils, wild pistachios and, at times, wild grass seeds and grass pea fragments, then cooked the resulting mix on hot stones”
