You can find lots of boutique bakeries that make wonderful bread. But, it's more expensive and not as ubiquitous as German bread, that's for sure.Malachi Ray Rempenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12827725501736261649noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6238329353013891803.post-25200341607884031862017-05-31T16:46:02.865+02:002017-05-31T16:46:02.865+02:00I'm pretty sure I would just die in the US, be...I'm pretty sure I would just die in the US, because of the things they call bread.

Because of this, it's an ingrained part of our culture, and it feels innately American. That's why you see them even in sit-down restaurants.<br /><br />There are plenty of restaurants that don't serve sandwiches, but honestly most restaurants serve some kind of sandwich, because it feels American. Also, most places in America have their own signature sandwich: Philadelphia has the cheesesteak, New Orleans has the po'boy, Miami has Cuban sandwiches, New England has Lobster Rolls, etc.<br /><br />In America we love sandwiches.Maurice Reeveshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04049632867154577936noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6238329353013891803.post-50149886971354763232015-12-29T00:28:12.183+01:002015-12-29T00:28:12.183+01:00I'm afraid that's not the custom in Americ...I'm afraid that's not the custom in America, мой друг.

My impression mostly based on some Florida places where I could not find any dish which is not wrapped in a kind of bred. But seriously, sandwich is a kind of food you can eat "on the way", why is noone surprized when it is served in a place where you can get a soup and a second dish and then a dessert?..Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14829066455193591647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6238329353013891803.post-80699733316141789252015-12-27T20:36:42.533+01:002015-12-27T20:36:42.533+01:00This is the funniest thing I've read all week....This is the funniest thing I've read all week.Malachi Ray Rempenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12827725501736261649noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6238329353013891803.post-26251557986077812052015-12-27T20:36:27.834+01:002015-12-27T20:36:27.834+01:00Glad there are those who appreciate it.Glad there are those who appreciate it.Malachi Ray Rempenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12827725501736261649noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6238329353013891803.post-65793496637603463572015-12-27T19:43:58.057+01:002015-12-27T19:43:58.057+01:00American food is godlike.
