    I was with you, up until baked goods. What’s wrong with baked goods? A nice loaf of bread freshly baked from a bakery? Or maybe a baked potato with cheese and bacon? Or maybe a big bag of pot…wait, sorry. Wrong kind of baked.

      I think baked goods as a treat would be cakes or cookies.
      Also from what I hear in USA bread is generally of very poor quality, but probably better from a baker.

        Mass produced, store bought bread is trash, but you can also find some of the nest quality bread you’ll ever taste if you go to specialty bakers insteadof supermarkets. I live in Wyoming and I can buy breads made with heirloom grains that are actually highly nutritious. The same applies to cookies, etc. Remember, the USA is a major producer of grains. We grow grain of exceptional quality. We just don’t sell it to our own people at a discount. We export the good stuff for profit and eat the low quality high yield stuff.

          I was in California in the 80’s, and the store bought bread tasted very well back then IMO.
          I bought some at a local shop, and used as part of my breakfast I made myself in my hotel room to save money. 😋
