Bread. I am a bread snob. I grew up in a Jewish bakery in upstate NY and I know bread. I lived in Germany, and for all they do wrong-they have mastered bread.

This chemically laden dried out spongy crap they try to pawn off as bread is not even close to being real bread. And you are right, the people who are native to this area have no idea.

Bread. It's one of my pet peeves.

I hated the heat, and the backwardness of the natives, and the creepy-crawlies, and the gimmicky golf-courses, and the fact that there was no body of water bigger than a tennis court, but it was the bread (or lack thereof) that made me want to leave. Arizona sucks. There's a reason why people don't live in deserts if they can help it.
