I'm more curious what kind of bread he's used to eating that breaks or shatters when you throw it on the ground? Like it's bread, it's not supposed to explode if you drop it.

a real sourdough french baguette would break if you threw it that hard on the ground in his defense, also real authentic artisan baguette is about 1.20eur this is indeed a complete scam

Guys working with a limited vocabulary as is. No need for his words to make any sense when it’s all simply acting out a tantrum.

Anytime they feel the need to dominate a situation they just go louder and on repeat. So eventually their victim either escalate or disengage. And they get to feel like they ā€œwonā€.

I understand this is rage bait, but as someone who makes and sells sourdough bread, charging $60 for a loaf is highway robbery. Bread is a basic staple. The ingredients cost very little, and while the time and effort deserve fair compensation, that price is ridiculous.

27 pound bag of flour, a bucket filled with water, the yeast mix pitched into the water, and a measuring cup filled with oil. All in the massive dough mixer with a boat propeller of dough hook.

Taken out and slammed on the stainless steel table. Cut up, placed 10 to a sheet, and left it the walk in till the next day. Rolled both ways through the dough roller and tossed into a pan with corn meal.

u/Any-Reference-2016 8d ago

Depends on the type of bread. Oil, sugar, egg yolk, etc. A true sourdough would need a starter instead of dried yeast. Lots of places make "fake" dark rye by just adding food coloring to regular rye. Just a couple of examples.

That’s the thing, what something is worth is what someone is willing to pay for it. Me personally I would never ever pay $60 bucks for this loaf of bread even if it was made with gold leaf flakes, but some people would, and people would pay even more for the stupidest shit out there. I promise you that someone could start a bakery, and sell these loaves for 120 bucks and people would still buy them. A lot of people are fucking stupid, and at the end of the day, it’s not your money.

Yes! I was so confused. The overall sentiment holds up $60 for a loaf of bread is insane, and you can buy a TON of staple foods for $60 but anything he said about the bread itself was nonsensical.

The things he kept saying were in direct conflict. "It's mad hard" followed immediately by "It's like a pillow" had me scratching my head.

"It doesn't break!" Yeah, bro I'd consider that a positive trait of a loaf of bread.

He was mad before he went in. It was always his intent to be mad. To make this exact video regardless of whether he like it or not.

Is it worth it? That's subjective. What is a person willing to pay. The market decides, you are entirely free to NOT buy the bread and just get bread anywhere else.

Go get a $5 sourdough somewhere else (I guess all that would happen is this guy would be less mad)

He bought it, his choice, he didn't have to..rage bait for rage baits sake. He could be raging about any product that markets itself as speciality or boutique/experience based(iPhones, designer clothes, designer bags, designer shoes etc....etc....)

We all know quality is not the point of those products. Exclusivity is, being able to pay for it, above others is part of the experience.

9

u/somehugefrigginguy 8d ago

I almost completely agree with you. Actually, I do agree in this scenario. But I think it's a big problem when all businesses move to this type of a model, only providing products or services that the wealthy can afford.

My parents have friends whose families have lived in Vail Colorado for generations. Both teachers. But wealthy people flooded the area, then wealthy businesses followed and bought out all of the reasonable businesses. Now people who have lived there for generations can no longer afford to live there. It's not just about housing prices, grocery stores, restaurants, everything has increased in price so much that regular people are being priced out of their hometowns.

So this video seems to be stupid rage bait, but I also think it demonstrates a real problem.

u/SadTumbleweed1567 8d ago

Its not a scam. A scam involves taking a person's money and not delivering what was paid for. In more poetic language you could argue that certain necessities that are priced well above the cost of producing the good or service due to lack of market forces bringing the price down is a scam.

This is a classic case of more money than sense, but the product being delivered appears to be the product being paid for. You bought a loaf of sourdough bread well above market price. No coercion, no deception, nothing.

Who in their right mind would pay $60 for a loaf of bread?!

u/becken_bruch 8d ago

It is really good bread. Probably the best bread in the united states. There are many breads but not one is like this bread. The best

Bread

last week, a man came up to me with tears in his eyes and said, "Sir! Sir! Thank you so much for making $60 bread no one needs! I love this country!" Now give me a Nobel Prize.

If you walk into a "bakery" and it looks like an Apple store...you should probably walk out lol

That cost less than 5€ near my house, the ingredients and preparation are not expensive at all, definitely overpriced as hell.

Edit: Btw, the exterior is hard on purpouse, it's doesn't mean it's old or poorly made, what is important it's that the interior is soft, the image I attached and the one of the video are examples of perfectly fine breads.

If dude’s whole idea was to initiate a shutdown of a restaurant by filming himself buy a $60 loaf of bread and then whine and complain about it, he didn’t win. Just made himself look like an idiot for wasting money and complaining about it.

u/troylazlow 8d ago

So he spent $60 made his ā€œcontentā€ complained for a refund, then posted a video of it, and made profit off the video… who’s the real ā€œScammerā€???

Dude ordered a loaf of sourdough and spent half the time bitching about the crust? Has dude never eaten sourdough before?

17

u/Cptawesome23 8d ago

Sourdough is like the most biblically basic of breads. If I paid $20 for a sourdough, I would expect excellence. If I paid $60 for a sourdough, I would expect angel food.

I make sourdough. That shit was not worth $60.

u/borntolose1 8d ago

Not saying it was. Just bitching about the crust on sourdough seems weird

Idc buying that loaf is certainly a choice. Im on a vacation in London and while in some fancy area I found 10Ā£ orange juice so I walked out with their cheapest coffee instead of harrassing their staff lol.

u/ssmit102 8d ago

It’s an extreme rip off but it’s not technically a scam.

But if you pay for this you deserve everything you get.

Dude needs medication. Is a Rolex worth 10k? Not to me, but it is to some people. I don’t have any issues with the rant until he says he wants to call Mamdani and shut the place down. That’s authoritarianism acting on capitalism. That doesn’t fly.

u/Lazy_Platypus7010 8d ago

60$ seems a bit steep for a sour dough rye loaf AKA ruislimppu. Here in Finland local artesan bakeries sell it around 2-5€/pound.

Anyways the crust is supposed to be hard (like real hard) Inside soft (ish).

u/Justsososojo 8d ago

The video we didn't need. None of us are buying $60 bread to be warned not to.

u/leksoid 8d ago

come on, guys, all these places with stupidly high prices serve only one purpose - so rich can shop without any poor (basically rest of 95% population) would not be roaming around them. thats it.

u/JohanGubler 8d ago

Who gives a shit? The only time I care about everything being overpriced is when I'm stuck in some place I can't easily leave to go elsewhere... Like a shitty airport that charges theme park prices while I'm forced to show up 2+ hours early, can't bring my own water in, and have to pay $5 for 16oz bottle of water.

u/TheInuitHunter 8d ago

I don’t know what he was expecting but like others, he tried to surf on the hype wave and got willingly reality checked.

It’s rye, it’s just rye.

Saw articles all over about these $60 loaves and as a baker I still don’t understand what could justify that besides the fact people are paying for it, I know I wouldn’t.
