The OOP is definitely just engagement bait
Yes, yes, it’s a bread clip. but do you know what day the bread was baked on? According to my useless knowledge, it was Thursday.
Did they get rid of them somewhere? Those were on the hamburger buns I opened last. Maybe a state like California banned plastic ties holding together plastic bags?
Also apparently they got named by a parody site years ago and have a cool following of collectors. They call them Occlupanids. And apparently the colors are supposed to tell the day of the week the bread was baked on.. ended up in a rabbit hole
They’re paper/cardboard now though.
Fun fact:
Within each brand, the different colours of tag or tape represent different sell by dates, so the staff can quickly remove all the bread that's going out of date without reading the labels.
This means that if you're looking to see if there's any fresher bread, you can check for different coloured tags.
My local supermarket has been using cardboard ones for a few years now.
Guitar pick for sure.
It's really obvious rage bait.
It's a fairly common species too : https://www.horg.com/horg/
You beat me back from the rabbit hole, I ended up watching a video about them to figure out the color code day of the week baked system. Sadly it mentioned not every bakery uses it now.
how are bread bags sealed where you are? the thin plastic ones that are mass produced
around here, they still primarily use these clips, just often cardboard now. which is nice to see.
'real' bread that doesn't have enough preservatives to keep it for weeks and is made fresh is typically sold in a paper/plastic bag with a sticker closing it, or just an open end
Usually sliced bread is sealed with a bit of tape that has the best before date printed on it. Although it still only keeps for days rather than weeks, at a push you can probably get about a week before mould starts growing on it. Then real bread will probably start going stale by the next day.
UK here, our bread bags are sealed with a piece of tape. It can't be used to reseal the bag, but there's enough excess length on the bags that you can just tie them in a knot to reseal them
It's what they use to seal plastic bags of bread
So, america?
"Bread" used to be a slang term (at least in the USA) for money, so yeah - most commonly "bread" IS digital now.
It's only "bread" if it's made on the bread region of france, elsewhere It's technically sparkling wheat brick.
"Sparkling?"
bread has bubbles in it. unless you forget the yeast.
I'm more of a spin it around and fold under guy, myself.
It’s David St. Hubbins from Spinal Tap!

This is rate bait, grandpa...
Crypto bread baby

Now I wonder if I can save a nickel next time I go to the bakery by bringing a chip clip.
thanks for using Leebra!
go to feed...
Hmmm. What can I post about to belittle younger people? Oh, I know! A fucking bread clip! Yeah, that’ll make me look cool, for sure!
