I’m the Inventor of the Bread Bowl and I’ve Got An Even Better Idea

Anything can be a bowl if you believe.

Hello, and welcome to my TED Talk.

Most of you know me as the inventor of the bread bowl. Sure, something as organically simple and obvious as a bowl made out of bread seems like it was probably invented by the Egyptians, or the Sumerians, or maybe aliens.

But it wasn’t. I invented the bread bowl, and I’ve got some other edible bowl ideas that I’m ready to spring on a grateful, bowl-obsessed nation.

I’ve prepared a PowerPoint presentation to guide us through the many iterations of the bread bowl (or BB for simplicity) that I dreamed up while tripping on ayahuasca in the mountains of Peru.

This first slide just says MEAT.

That’s right, a BB made out of meat, or an MB (not to be confused with a BM).

Since I was in Peru at the time, the only meat available was Guinea pig. But we shouldn’t let that cloud our vision of what a game changer the meat bowl is going to be, even if it is made out of a child’s pet.

An MB could be filled with gravy, vegetables, and mashed potatoes. I can hear some of you whispering in a weird Michael Caine…
