What is the real value of bread?

And how to make most of it?

Let’s dive in and find out!

Let’s go back in time

What was the value of bread in the past?

“panem et circenses”

Juvenal, Roman poet

In ancient Rome, panem et circences (bread and circuses) was a key creating approval of the masses.

So give them this and …

…some bread and they will vote for you…

Huge value, right!

Religions also often use(d) bread as a symbol to transfer their message.

To sum that up: empires and religions are partly build on bread!

So now, what to do now?!

A loaf of bread

can save lives.

OOPS JUST A COUPLE MORE IDEAS.

•This has been done with gourds, etc. But take a loaf of bread, seal it with polyurethane, paint it and sell it as an art object? Money going to help the poor and needy. The common object can become an art piece.

•Create a movement called "BREAD HEADS", create doll-like characters carved out of bread and sealed (if that can be done) with something and create an army of "BREAD HEADS". Bringing monetary value and creative.

•Create an interactive map of videos showing native breads all over the world, especially because bread is something that all people from the beginning of creating bread shared together. The video could show how the bread is made, how people use it, eat it. The value is that people can see different people all over the world sharing something in common.

Add your own touch and creativity!

Thanks for watching
