Subject: RE: BS: What do you call your bread?
In Canada, it's just bread, white or brown, wheaten, 7 grain or 12 grain. and many others but it is all bread.

In Ireland they have Farls, Bannocks and Barmbracks, A farl is 4" triangular piece about 1/2" thick and can be either a soda farl, wheaten farl or a treacle farl. Bannocks are wheaten bread about 12" round and 2" thick in the middle, Barmbrack is similar but more fluffier inside.
They also have potato farls, made with a mixture of flour, mashed potatoes and mikk, all of teh above are baked on a griddle.
