Where does pumpernickel bread come from?
Pumpernickel bread originated in Germany, specifically in the Rhineland region.
The name itself is a combination of German words:
* "Pumper" meaning "fart"
* "Nickel" meaning "devil"
This humorous name likely refers to the bread's dark color and slightly sour taste, which was thought to be similar to the "devil's breath."
However, the actual origin of the bread's name is uncertain, and there are other theories as well.
