Why Roman Sourdough Will RUIN Modern Bread for You Forever

Описание: Your bread is a scam.

You bought it this morning, but by tonight it already feels like cotton. By tomorrow it’s bloating you, fogging your head, sitting heavy in your gut. Soft, fast, empty.
Now travel back to ancient Rome. A baker mixed flour and water, then waited all night. Wild bacteria turned it into sourdough, breaking down gluten, unlocking minerals, and making bread that actually fueled the body. Roman soldiers marched 20 miles a day on bread like this.
