This article is about objects that can spawn when players die or teleport. For other uses, see Bread (disambiguation).

Bread is an object that occasionally appears when players teleport. Several seconds after spawning, the bread prop will disappear. The chance for bread to spawn when teleported is 1/20 with a hardcoded exception for Soldier, for who the chance is 1/3 (in reference to Expiration Date). There are currently nine different bread models which will appear randomly. Bread related weapons were one of the main focuses of the Love & War Update.
Update history
- [Undocumented] Bread now occasionally spawns when using a Teleporter.
June 18, 2014 Patch (Love & War Update)
- Map Fixes.
- Updated pl_upward.
- Fixed physics debris triggering the Payload cart's finale explosion.
- Updated pl_upward.
[Unknown Date]
- Reduced chance to spawn bread on teleporting or death.
Notes
- All bread props can be destroyed with the Short Circuit and can also be air-blasted, similar to projectiles.
Trivia
- Each type of bread represents each class. Plain loaf represents Scout, bread ration represents Soldier, burnt bread represents Pyro, cinnamon-swirl bread represents Demoman, borodinsky bread represents Heavy, cornbread represents Engineer, pretzel represents Medic, crumpet represents Sniper, and baguette represents Spy. This is backed up by a string array called
g_pszBreadModelsfound in the source code, containing filenames for all 9 types of bread alongside comments of which class each type of bread is for.[1] - Bread was hinted at multiple times before its appearance in the game itself:
- Bread was first mentioned in the Lecture Valley page.
- Bread was also shown on the Adult Swim Extravaganza blog post. In the top right corner directly above the Scout, a pair of baguettes are visible.
- The icon for the Summer Appetizer Crate contains two baguettes.
- The Two Cities Update page for Rottenburg shows Archimedes flying away with a pretzel.
- One of the RED Team's affiliated companies is RED Bread, which was prominently featured as RED team's cover in the Expiration Date short.
- The plain bread loaf appeared in the Expiration Date short as mutated sentient bread, and later became a monstrously large tentacled beast.
- Before June 17th, 2014, the date the Love & War Update was announced, the rate at which bread spawned during teleportation was quite rare. During the Update, the spawn rate was seemingly increased to 100%. As of late, it appears to have been reverted to a low spawn rate.
Unused content
- Texture filename strings were found listed in the
texture_preload_list.txtfile added in the October 28, 2015 Patch, hinting at 3 bread types that were scrapped; bagged bread, robo-bread and shortbread.tf/materials/models/weapons/c_items/c_bread_bagged.vtftf/materials/models/weapons/c_items/c_bread_bagged_normal.vtftf/materials/models/weapons/c_items/c_bread_robo.vtftf/materials/models/weapons/c_items/c_bread_shortbread.vtftf/materials/models/weapons/c_items/c_bread_shortbread_normal.vtf
