I want some scientific research into this, because I believe the twist and tuck is as good as any other method of sealing the bag, and it's faster and requires no accessories, clips, or tools.

[-] protist@mander.xyz 22 points 4 weeks ago

I take umbrage with this meme's characterization of the twist and tuck as chaotic. It's literally the fastest and easiest method without compromising freshness

[-] owenfromcanada@lemmy.ca 16 points 4 weeks ago

It's chaotic in that it doesn't ascribe to needing the provided mechanism for closure. It also is not as great if you need to move it around, as it can come untucked easily.

That being said, twist and tuck is definitely Chaotic Good. The bottle hack belongs on the evil row.

[-] orbituary@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 4 weeks ago

Yeah. Who the fuck wants to fish out a plastic lid every time you get a slice of bread?

[-] can@sh.itjust.works 6 points 4 weeks ago

Not just the lid, but the actual cut off top of a bottle as well.

[-] Enkers@sh.itjust.works 5 points 4 weeks ago

There is a minor downside: If anyone carelessly moves said bread bag, it can come untwisted, untucked, or both.

But yeah, I'm on team twist and tuck. (Although, since I live with other people, I normally just continue the method currently in place.)

I have never in my entire life seen an actual bread box, I thought they were a thing from England or something

[-] someguy3@lemmy.world 16 points 4 weeks ago

My grandma used one. Personally I think the real function was to keep mice from eating your bread, but that hasn't been a problem for a long time.

How else to store real bread?
So not just the sandwich/toast bread, that comes in plastic bags, but real bread, with a crust and in plastic wrap it would lose its crust, but without any protection, it dries out.
It's a delicate balance act, where paper and a bread box seem to work best

What in the world is the bottle hack

[-] PDFuego@lemmy.world 10 points 4 weeks ago

Cutting off the top of a bottle and jamming the bag through the lid to seal it.

[-] TheBat@lemmy.world 5 points 4 weeks ago

That sounds chaotic evil to me tbh

[-] BudgetBandit@sh.itjust.works 6 points 4 weeks ago

You cut the head off a bottle so you have the screwy-bit. Then you pull the open end through the bottle-Head and screw the lid on.

[-] Wobble@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 4 weeks ago

Hmmmmmmmmmm microplastics in my bread

[-] ObviouslyNotBanana@lemmy.world 16 points 4 weeks ago

TBF those are already in there. They're in the water supply!

[-] floquant@lemmy.dbzer0.com 14 points 4 weeks ago* (last edited 4 weeks ago)

Wouldn't want to get those inside its plastic bag

The box being "good" is wild. That is where bread goes stale unseen and uneaten. Its gotta be near the top of pointless kitchen things that only people with more money then sense have.

Always eat the entire loaf in one sitting.

[-] Grimy@lemmy.world 9 points 4 weeks ago

I learned how to do this and never went back.

[-] 0ops@lemm.ee 9 points 4 weeks ago

I do both lawful neutral and chaotic neutral at once. Am I paranoid?

[-] HenriVolney@sh.itjust.works 8 points 4 weeks ago

Could you repeat in baguette, please?

[-] owenfromcanada@lemmy.ca 8 points 4 weeks ago

I feel like this alignment chart doesn't consider how evil you could get. Leaving the bag open seems pretty tame for CE. I suggest the following:

  • Lawful Good: bread box w/ the bag
  • Neutral Good: bag clip
  • Chaotic Good: twist and tuck
  • Lawful Neutral: bread box w/o the bag
  • True Neutral: original bread clip
  • Chaotic Neutral: twist or tuck, not both
  • Lawful Evil: bag is tied shut
  • Neutral Evil: bag is left open
  • Chaotic Evil: bag is torn open in the middle

What if I keep my bread in the fridge?

[-] ibelieveinthehousehippo@lemmy.ca 5 points 4 weeks ago

Get out. Your kind isn't welcome here.

Step 1: get some real bread

[-] bitjunkie@lemmy.world 4 points 4 weeks ago

For real. I recently discovered that the bakery at the chain supermarket across the street from me sells giant loaves of sourdough for about a dollar less than even the "budget" brands in the factory-made bread aisle. Not going back.

What about reusing the bag clip plus the twist and tuck method?

[-] ZeroGravitas@lemm.ee 6 points 4 weeks ago

Pros and cons of breadbox? Any paladins out there willing to enlighten us?

[-] rebelsimile@sh.itjust.works 12 points 4 weeks ago* (last edited 4 weeks ago)

Had one, hated it, forget the bread was in there* and it doesn’t have some sort of magical bread preservation properties, it’s just a spot taking up counter space to hold a plastic bag.

* (I recognize this is my specific problem but it’s on the list of why it doesn’t work for me)

[-] db2@lemmy.world 7 points 4 weeks ago

Same here though, the bread turns to a brick of mold way before even getting close to the end.

The refrigerator might change the bread properties but at least it isn't ruined in two days.

[-] rebelsimile@sh.itjust.works 4 points 4 weeks ago

Yeah I don’t wanna exaggerate but it was nearly the worst environment I could think of to just leave bread in. If you had a party or a brunch or something and didn’t want the bread sitting out, sure, but for having in there for a week and a half unmonitored, we’ve been taken for absolute fools. :)

I'm just saying twist and tuck is the best because it seals well enough and it's fast and requires no additional equipment. If you have a breadbox that's peak convenience, but I've only seen one family that had one ever, and they had the counter space for it.

[-] owenfromcanada@lemmy.ca 8 points 4 weeks ago

Also worth noting: a bread box generally isn't sealed that well, I would still recommend keeping the bread in a bag (depending on what type it is and how quickly you plan to eat it).

Maybe it depends on climate, but bread left out where I am gets moldy way before it gets stale. The best solution is to keep it in the freezer (in a bag, and any of those methods but CE would probably be fine). Weeks later, the bread is still soft and send fresh. Bread thaws unbelievably fast. If I'm making a sandwich, I take two slices out and put them on a plate separated. Usually by the time I've got the other ingredients ready to go, the bread is thawed. If you're toasting the bread, it can go straight from freezer to toaster. If you're making sandwiches to take to work or school, you can just make them on the frozen bread.

Reuse clip or twist and tuck are the only appropriate methods.

[-] DizzoMyNizzo@lemmy.world 5 points 3 weeks ago

You want to know what bothers me with this chart? What has always bothered me, is it does not mention the twist-tie that comes with the bread when purchased.

Where is it? Where.

P.s. if you say it's the clip, that is clearly a chip bag clip, meant for chip bags. That clip does not come with the bread bag.

P.s.s. Make the FUCKING TWIST-TIE that comes with the bread true natural. Any deviation from it becomes a different part of the chart. Fuck off rubber band method. Replace the bottle cap method. (Who uses the bottle cap + ring method anyway? That should be in the 'psychopath waisting energy and justifying it with internet logic' level of evil category.)

I keep my bread in the fridge, and then it doesn't matter.
I guess it means I'm in Pathfinder universe or something

[-] miraclerandy@lemmy.world 4 points 4 weeks ago

I am lawful neutral (use clip it came with) until about halfway through the loaf, then I become chaotic neutral (twist and tuck) at the back half.

There isn’t enough bag to properly twist and tuck until that point anyway.
