I may live in France, but I am English too. A simple white cottage loaf is great, that is indisputable. However the availability is laughable.
When I lived in Portsmouth, there were 2 bakeries on the whole island. 2!! in my little town here we have 4 artisan bakers, plus 3 supermarkets that all sell really good bread. Just round the corner from my house there is a farm that sells bread (made completely in house) every Friday afternoon and people take the afternoon off work and drive 2 hours to buy it.
French bread wins hands down.
However I agree with you on one thing: I love bread!
I would say french bread is a close second to german bread. But I might be biased, being german and all lol
As an English person, a simple white cottage loaf cannot be beat.
But I also love French and German breads.
Fucking hell I love bread.

Wars have been fought for less.
In fact, it would not surprise me if an argument about bread was a factor in WW1.
