Sort of. I make homemade bread and will eat it every day until it's gone, then skip a week or two of it. Factory bread bothers my stomach, but when I make real bread (no preservatives, let it ferment 18-24hrs), it sits just fine.

Edit: I also think this is what so many people think that they are "gluten sensitive", which isn't a real thing. The amount of salt, bleach and preservatives in factory bread will mess you up.
Don’t forget flip flops. “Factory bread contains one of the ingredients used in flip flop soles.” Yum? 🤨

Sometimes the seller is the moron, sometimes it's us.

A couple of years ago I was talking to a guy in the NE (NH if i remember correctly) who wanted 35K for dark blue turbo 930. I stood firm at 32.5K, a price I thought was fair.

That car today is worth well over 100K.

Sometimes, I'm the moron.
At some time we're all morons just like that guy became when he finally sold the 930. I bought a brand new 1974 DeTomaso Pantera for $11,000 and sold it a year later for $13,000 and the Pantera ultimately reached $100,000 at the Barrett Jackson auction in Scottsdale, AZ.

Yeah. One time when I was still married my now ex wife were at a restaurant that didn't serve bread before the meal. Somewhat unusual. We would have invited the Greek friend had we known ahead of time.

I'll check tomorrow. Lost most everything in a disgusting divorce.
I know only two guys that are divorced and not bitter/upset about how it went. In both cases, they agreed to no lawyers or courts and signed a binding arbitration. It was like tearing off a band-aid, a little painful but over quickly and everyone moved on. For all the younger guys in this thread, I hope you never get divorced, but if you marry, at least sign a prenup that just agrees to arbitration only, just in case.

In my case I bought the Pantera early in the marriage. I was around for 24 years old. It was the destruction of lots of personal property much later in life is where I lost pictures etc.
