Surface area to volume ratio, "airiness" (density) of the crumb, and permability of the crust will determine how quickly the bread will go stale (assuming no bizarre ingredients to "preserve freshness"). A thin French baguette will go stale very quickly. A dense Italian country bread (e.g. Pugliese) not as quickly.
Well, yes, for sure. But see my post above about preservatives. And Italian breads have olive oil in them which will slow down the water evaporation too, thus delaying staleness :) Some do, some don't. The Pugliese I'm eating does not.

f13.net: Where we don't buy fresh bread because people in Africa are starving.
Man, what the FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU?
That's an easy one, which can be summed up with 3 bullet points. 1: I think too much. 2: I have an overdeveloped sense of empathy. 3: My self esteem is nearly nonexistant, with near Jewish or Catholic levels of guilt. Edit: And this is basically my brain. Always. Just add more actual talking outside of work, and less medical paranoia. http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b65/Seawolf9/Comics%202/1276.png

I never waste food, as I've yet to find any food that the various critters outside won't eat.
Even the failure chili that was too hot to eat quickly, and started going blue in the pot for some reason, the skunks loved. And I don't think they exploded afterwards.
As for starving kids in Africa, I'm willing to feed them. To either the skunks or the raccoons.

once it starts getting stale, it becomes breadcrumbs.
HERETIC! Don't let VL hear you! She'll sass you. I save my ends and crusts in the freezer until I have enough to make a nice savory bread pudding (instead of dressing) at Thanksgiving. Stale bread has no other purpose. ...oh, unless it's challah or brioche, then it's French toast. My freezer looks like I'm from the Radio Generation. Just bags of bones and shrimp shells and parmesan rinds and other scraps waiting to be turned to stock.

I use crumbled stale french bread in meatballs. And not week-old stale, next day stale. French bread is a one time affair. That's the extent of my stale bread hereticism.

When my bread starts going stale, I toss it in the oven, season it and turn it into crumbs for meatballs and meatloaf. If the bread's gone moldy, I ditch it. If it's gone too stale, it becomes bird food. MY BREADCRUMBS ARE NICE DAMMIT! Srsly.

Zar, I will happily throw away my stale half-loaf. I give to multiple charities and food drives. Not to mention the fact that it means I buy another loaf from the local baker, stimulating the local economy. I'll go for trendy and say it lowers the local carbon footprint

Is it weird that I have not bought a loaf of bread in almost a year?

Yes. You're a deviant and should be persecuted and I wish you goddamned breadhating weirdos would stop thrusting your perverted lifestyles into the faces of us decent, normal breadies. This is Politics isn't it?

I dunno, there's bread hidden in there. And I blame my wife. Before I got married, I use to just eat at the local diner all the time with friends.

JWIV's fridge is also huge. I've rented student accommodation that was smaller than that thing!

The main point here is that your fridge looks like a domesticated guy, not like you put crackers in it so the bugs or African kids don't get in there. I'd put all kinds of shit in the fridge when I was single because it was like extra shelving, just colder and more bug-free. My grandmother kept her crackers in the oven.

How is the double chocolate stout? I've seen it in around a few times and I'm curious.

The fork is a nice touch. I tried the Rogue after it was mentioned in the beer thread, and its tasty.
What's in the brown bags? Seafood, I hope, and not Dahmer's Delight.

Youngs Double Chocolate Stout is a Christmas favourite for me. It's delicious - dark, nutty, rich and chocolatey without being sickly. You wouldn't want to drink 6 bottles in one night but it's a superb stout, no question.

Double Stout is incredible dude.
The beer was for the Thanksgiving party I was going to. My kitchen sucks so I bring beer! Out of those that are there, the Heather Ale and the Nut Brown Ale are my fav's. Old Rasputin is always always good.
The brown bags had more beer in them.
Shit, I just realized that Orange is still in there.

I've just noticed you had your Youngs in *tins* Bottles man, bottles! The only time it's ok to drink beer from tins is if you're camping and keeping your carry weight down or if it's something nobody gives a crap about, like rubbish lager! I'll say again... and a for good measure

I'm skeptical... but I'll try it! Next time I see them in the supermarket. This is important research dammit.
