    To be fair, we would need several more articles to debate the origins and characteristics of every other region's bread-like products. I would be glad to read them, but it probably isn't realistic to compare all of them in the same article. This submission from a few months ago mentions a slew of breads that are found in various parts of India, though of course not all are Indian in origin: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13119986 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13119986
