hello fellow jews of tumblr. poll time

what bread do you use on shabbos

only challah

i’ve had to use some other breads, but only in outlier situations

i’ve used/will use sandwich breads, but i can’t just use any bread

if it has bread in the name then it’s fair game (pumpkin bread, banana bread)

if it’s close enough to bread than it works (cookies, crackers, etc)

i have used matzoh before out of desperation

Recently* I started saying hamotzei/benching every time I eat bread (look, it's the only prayer commanded in the torah. Kinda odd that it took me so long to add it in).

*Like, a year or two.

This had lead to a growth in halachic knowledge, as well as me deviating from some rulings in a fun way.

The biggest question is what differentiates bread from mezonot?

The answer is basically *vague shrug* in that it boils down to "Do you treat it like bread, or not?"

Cookies? Cake? Clearly never treated like bread.

Crackers? Not bread.

Pita chips? Uh... wait, I don't.... eh fuck it, I'll learn the answer on judgement day.

Chocolate Croissant? Not bread.

Croissant eaten with like... coffee? Probably not bread.

Croissant that you cut in half to make a sandwhich? Bread.. I guess?

Pizza? A legit debate. I rule that it is not bread.

Bagels? Bread.

Pizza Bagels? I rule that they are not bread, cause Pizza is not bread, and washing is annoying.

Matzah? Were it not for the fact that it is by definition bread, I would 100% not call it bread.

Also those burger buns where they use fruit juice so technically it is mezonot? go fuck yourself, it's bread.

I'm gluten free and when trying to make challah I found out you can only say the hamllotzi if its 51% or more oats (the other grain of israel have gluten). I'm wondering, what counts as bread? Could I theoretically say the hamotzi on oatmeal cookies?
