tell me abt anything rn 🔫
in pompeii, bread fraud was such a widespread crime that at one point, bakeries were required to use official stamps to mark their breads. grain was given to bakeries by the roman government to make free bread, but it was sometimes stolen for other baked goods and replaced with substitutes. so it became mandatory for commercially sold bread to be marked with an official seal, so if a household's bread was ever tampered with, they'd know who to report

do u know about the great bread scandal of 1757. u will now
in britain 1756, violent rains had pretty much destroyed the wheat crop grown. it was shitty quality and since it was soggy, u couldn't make flour properly from it. so parliament issued standard bread to be made, with more bran than usual, which was cheaper, but also a darker loaf than normal wheat flour would make. people associated bran bread with poverty and wanted loaves that were whiter than white(white as curd to be precise). the rage for white bread was unreasonable and the only way that bakers could make white bread from poor flour was by adding alum to it. alum.
if u dont know, alum is a double sulfate salt of aluminium, usually referring to potassium alum but given the time period there's no way to know for sure.
the whole thing led to a wild series of accusations abt the additions being used in British loaves, where ppl believed they were using anything from chalk and lime to literal ground up bones(this is where the jack and the beanstalk grind his bones to make my bread line comes from)
anyway yeah there's a lot more to it but man bread history is fucking wild
it's fine bestie you can share your bread/general food lore and ill be here sharing swift lore and we can both have fun <3
TODAY'S BREAD LORE NIGHT APPARENTLY.
in the 14th century AD, england had laws in place to prevent mass starvation which regulated the price of bread by the portion of wheat used in making it. bakers used to work around these laws by baking copper pennies into their loaves to weigh them down when inspectors came around
and in around 16th century france, dark bread was incredibly popular among the masses, because you could put diff kinds of grain to bake it without having to bake diff loaves for diff grains. however since it was possible to mix grains so different and not be able to tell the difference, bakers used to add dirt, sawdust, hay, and anything else that was free and looked like it belonged in a loaf as filler materials to save money on buying flour
