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

June 11, 2014 Patch

  • [Undocumented] Bread now occasionally spawns when using a Teleporter.

June 18, 2014 Patch (Love & War Update)

[Unknown Date]

  • Reduced chance to spawn bread on teleporting or death.

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_pszBreadModels found 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:
  • The plain bread loaf appeared in the Expiration Date short as mutated sentient bread, and later became a monstrously large tentacled beast.
  • All bread props can be destroyed with the Short Circuit and can also be air-blasted, similar to projectiles.
  • 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.txt file added in the October 28, 2015 Patch, hinting at 3 bread types that were scrapped; bagged bread, robo-bread and shortbread.
