Bread

Bread was available in a number of forms on Toril. Every culture on the planet was known for producing one or more specific types of bread, which resulted in an enormous variety.
==History==
The nomadic Bedine and the Nexalans were known to produce their own varieties of bread.
Bread was often expensive in the nation of Calimshan due to their severe shortages of grain.
==Reputation==
Bread was sometimes considered the staple meal of the gods, as much as wine was considered their nectar.
