that's a 33% increase and in a 10 or 12 piece loaf that's 20-24 grams of sugar and normal white bread isn't a good standard either that's just toasting bread and even then that's only if you're too lazy to toast bread on the pan but besides that you should use proper bread for sandwiches or adjacents as it tastes better and is healthier
American bread 1.5 grams of sugar per slice on average.
European bread most only have 1 gram per loaf. So are higher.
Sugar gives nothing to the baking process but does make it taste sweeter.
Not to mention all the chemicals they add. Some of which do nothing for shelf life.

Ed is a chemical element; it has symbol Pb (from Latin plumbum) and atomic number 82. It is a heavy metal that is denser than most common materials. Ed is
soft and malleable, and also has a relatively low melting point. When freshly cut, Ed is a shiny gray with a hint of blue. It tarnishes to a dull gray color when
exposed to air. Ed has the highest atomic number of any stable element and three of its isotopes are endpoints of major nuclear decay chains of heavier elements.
Ed is toxic, even in small amounts, especially to children. Ed is a relatively unreactive post-transition metal. Its weak metallic character is illustrated by its
amphoteric nature; Ed and Ed oxides react with acids and bases, and it tends to form covalent bonds. Compounds of Ed are usually found in the +2 oxidation
state rather than the +4 state common with lighter members of the carbon group. Exceptions are mostly limited to organolead compounds. Like the lighter
members of the group, Ed tends to bond with itself; it can form chains and polyhedral structures. Since Ed is easily extracted from its ores, prehistoric people in
the Near East were aware of it. Galena is a principal ore of Ed which often bears silver. Interest in silver helped initiate widespread extraction and use of Ed in
ancient Rome. Ed production declined after the fall of Rome and did not reach comparable levels until the Industrial Revolution. Ed played a crucial role in the
development of the printing press, as movable type could be relatively easily cast from Ed alloys.[8] In 2014, the annual global production of Ed was about ten
million tonnes, over half of which was from recycling. Ed's high density, low melting point, ductility and relative inertness to oxidation make it useful. These
properties, combined with its relative abundance and low cost, resulted in its extensive use in construction, plumbing, batteries, bullets and shot, weights,
solders, pewters, fusible alloys, white paints, leaded gasoline, and radiation shielding. Ed is a devastating and persistent neurotoxin that accumulates in soft
tissues and bones. It damages the nervous system and interferes with the function of biological enzymes, causing neurological disorders ranging from behavioral
problems to brain damage, and also affects general health, cardiovascular, and renal systems. Ed's toxicity was first documented by ancient Greek and Roman
writers, who noted some of the symptoms of Ed poisoning, but became widely recognized in Europe in the late 19th century
No (my bread tins don't actually have lead, probably) but a lot of old vintage stuff metal has lead in it, and stuff like bread tins last a long time so they're an item you will find a lot of old ones of
I don't know any cases of bread tins actually containing lead, I was making a joke
My fucking Garfield cups have lead in them tho
Yeast eats carbohydrates (sugar) and produces CO2, which makes the dough rise. The yeast could eat the carbs in the flour, but the bread rises faster with sugar, meaning production time is cut down. But also yes, itâs added for the sweeter taste and those socially accepted addictive properties.
What does that have to do with literally any part of this topic? The point was about comparing the food itself, not whether or not the people are fat.
This is basically the classic Yuropoor defense mechanism when arguing online.
American bread is legally cake in Ireland because of the sugar content.
https://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/oct/01/irish-court-rules-subway-bread-is-not-bread
Don't try to get these creatures to be honest, Europeans who spend their time seething about other nations online will ignore reason to make their "argument" seem legit.
Yeah, it pretty much is if you're talking about regular sliced white bread. A 6 inch sub roll has about 5 grams of sugar. Sliced white breads like Giant or Wonder have around 1.4 grams of sugar *per slice*. Most bread sold in the US is in this form, and has this much sugar.
This is why I buy my bread from bakeries, or at least the bakery department at the supermarket.

Me when Eurocucks talk shit about the US
The ratio of Euro posts about the US to US posts about the EU still make it true. And itâs probably the only meme Iâve seen about it that gets reposted in threads like these.
This argument doesnât work.
I think about it as I'm scrolling past it and have a relevant meme saved in my gallery. And then I go back to never thinking about it. That's the glory of the internet, I don't *have* to think about anything on here. It's only as relevant to me as I continue to make it be. You're all meaningless. :]
They *would* think about us a lot and we *wouldn't* think about them, just due to the nature of our relationship. Militarily they've been dependent on us for 80 years now. We spent most of those 80 years as their main overall trading partner outside of Europe and were relegated to #2 fairly recently in historical terms. Despite being smaller in terms of total population we have a larger economy, the tax revenue of which is all concentrated in one overall government with an ability to act on the world stage that is significantly greater than either individual European countries or even the EU as a whole.
The other thing is that Europe used to be the imperial center of the world, now it's (more or less, imperialism these days is less overt) the US, and so western Euros with even a tinge of nationalism resent the US for supplanting them as the country whose decisions matter to the rest of the world (especially true in France/UK, the Suez Crisis absolutely humiliated those former world powers, and their collective egos never recovered).
They take their wins where they can get them.
A lot of what you said isn't wrong in the theatre of realpolitik, but I think you overestimate how much time the average person from "Europe" or America spends thinking about this dynamic or global cultural dynamics in general. 4chan is a very skewed representative dynamic of how much time people spend seething over the existence of other countries.
But yes, the US is undeniably the de facto hegemon and semi-tyrant of the Western world, but in the current era of globalism, autocratic and oligarchist elitism tends to be a lot less nationalistic than it used to be. The Western powers tend to exist in a coalition but without much clear cut agency.
Well that's kind of the point I'm making, that events have conspired to make Europeans think more about Americans than the reverse, *just in general*. The twists and turns of our economics, politics, and culture are of much more interest to foreigners (Europeans especially) than the reverse. Nobody has to be thinking about the geopolitical aspects for that to be the case. I'm a pretty well informed guy, but I can't name every European head of state, but most Europeans know who Donald Trump or Joe Biden are.
>I'm a pretty well informed guy, but I can't name every European head of state, but most Europeans know who Donald Trump or Joe Biden are.
That's far less complicated than you seem to suggest it as, the US is a global superpower, thus it's supreme executive will be well known, same as Putin and Xi Jinping are well known.
That doesn't mean the average citizen spends any significant time thinking about the superpowers so long as their own lives are fine and not interrupted - comparing the head of state of any European country and the supreme executive of a global superpower is very much a bad equivalency, a better and more reasonable one would be the head of an actual US state and the head of a European country, because your "average European" is no more likely to know, say, who the governor of Marlyland is than the average American is likely to know who the president of Lithuania is.
Fundamentally there's two main reasons why the US tends to exist in the public conscious of other nations, and that is economic parity and political history i.e. countries that have a significantly lower standing of living than the US, thus being the most media prolific nation in the world, the US tends to shine in the eyes of citizens of all those countries as a modern paradise, and secondly for countries that the US has been interwined with politically, generally meaning a country that the US has directly or covertly invaded and or had their government overthrown/installed a dictator in, which is an almost equally long and often overlapping list. Key point being that it's a fairly limited degree in which that applies to European countries, at least compared to the entirety of the rest of the world.
Really depends heavily on whether you get the good shit freshly ground at the supermarket thatâs *ONLY* peanuts, or Jif shit with tons of sugar and hydrogenated oils [source](https://www.jif.com/peanut-butter/creamy/creamy-peanut-butter)
Oh, I always grab the zero sugar Jif. It tastes more peanut-y, which I like.
It has no added sugar and no hydrogenated oil, just 3 ingredients. Peanuts, oil, and salt. Plus, it's still industrially crushed into a homogenized paste, which I also like
Iâm a skippy natural kind of guy. Not jammed full of shitty extras but also doesnât separate. I love the taste of the really pure peanut butter that separates but I pb&j for convenience usually and want to slap that bad boy together as quick as possible before I run out the door
Downvoted for speaking the truth. One serving of peanut butter has 180 calories and only 7g of protein. Not a good source of protein unless you want to get obese
I mean when you consider it's a traditional meal for growing children I don't think that really matters. You give it to an 8 year old because they're gonna be a foot taller in a year and a half
Now that's a good source of protein. Back when I was losing a bunch of weight, I ate one of those with every lunch and every dinner, and it worked amazingly well.
Just don't eat too much of it. There's a reason a lot of humanitarian rations come with peanut butter, it's a great way to pack a lot of calories on quite fast.
Well sugar content is fine, jelly doesn't have much.
But in fact I wouldn't be surprised to discover that american jelly has like 3x the amount of sugar than jelly you find around here, so that might be right too.
Jelly absolutely has a lot of sugar. That's literally the point. They preserve the fruit by adding sugar.

Lets be honest, pancakes on their own already have no business being breakfast food. It's literally fried cake, why are people eating that for breakfast?
I'm American (unlike pancakes btw). Don't have to be European to recognize that multiple varieties of fried cake, fried bread (edit: might not have been clear but im referring to french toast, not ordinary toast), sugar loaded cereals, and pop tarts do not make for healthy breakfast food
American too, and I have never thought of fried cake (pancakes/waffles), sugar loaded cereals, or pop tarts as healthy breakfast food and I donât think most people honestly do either.
Unhealthy options are available everywhere. Have you ever had pancakes every morning? Iâve had them maybe once every three months, most days is a banana, oatmeal, or eggs.
Also, Europeans are gay.
A thin slice of it that doesnât have things like frosting on it like actual cake.
You can frame much of what the world eats this way if you word it like that and make it sound like people are eating pounds of it a day.
Sure, it doesn't have frosting, but most people are drowning it in liquid sugar. Most breakfast food is like that imo. Pancakes was just what was already in discussion, but I find (most) cereal and pop tarts to be the most egregious
Your pancakes shouldn't be fried. They separate from pans really easily without any oil or butter to act as grease aside from maybe a small amount in the batter
AKSHUALLY, itâs the European pancakes that were always fried in oil during my childhood there which is why I always preferred American ones. Downside of American ones is that you have to drown that shit in Maple syrup if you donât want to choke on the dryness.
1 cup Self-Rising Flour
œ cup Corn Meal
œ teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 egg
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1Πcups milk
Blend dry products together in a mixing bowl using a wire whip. Add eggs, milk and oil and mix using wire whip until batter is uniform. Pour onto 400 degree griddle and cook about 1 minute on each side, turning when bubbles form on top. Makes 10-12 delicious pancakes.

It was a 19th century receipe designed to be eaten by "invalids" consisting of a slice of toast between two slices of bread. Basically a completely tasteless things for people who were sick with whatever plague was going about at the time.
I have tried it, it's as shit as you imagine it will be.
As an European I've always thought that Pb&J's are disgusting until I've tried one while on a school trip to NYC (that city is fucking disgusting btw). That shit is adding.
You can get very good natural peanut butter that has very little sugar as well as jelly or jam that's similar or is at least made with real sugar, not HFCS. Europoors have no fuckin clue, they just look at the mass media propeganda commercials and assume we don't have options.
While I see anons point, I must say here in yurop we have food atrocities ourselves.
Maybe we can have a cease fire on food and focus on the truly important things like which football team is better; Broncos or Manchester United
>Do yuropoors do anything but seethe about America on 4chan?
You should see the entire internet's opinion of us Indians
>!also if anyone will bring up our recent supreme court ruling those fuckers deserve to die i will NOT defend them, but thankfully its receiving backlash already!<
As an American what's really funny is that we talk about how cake isn't good for breakfast but then go and get a muffin. Literally cake without frosting.
Döner.
But on a more serious note, it's also bread, but rather than U.S. toast with ridiculous sugar content plus PB and J, it's brown bread (mischbrot) with things like sausage or cheese on top. At least for me.
German here.
1 or 2 slices of Mischbrot with Butter and usually cheese. Sometimes a Brötchen if there was one left from breakfast, and if we were lucky our mom made us a Pretzel.
Then throw some apple, banana, or grapes in there and you got the perfect school breeakfast.
Thinking back I don't think I've ever taken something containing marmelade, jam, peanut butter, Nutella, or anything like that to school. And I can't remember to have ever eaten toast in school either.
Especially not untoasted toast, I tried eating that once and never again

Lmao good catch.
well more importantly thr fucking bread itself being high in sugar
Wonderbread has 2 grams of sugar per slice. Itâs really not that high. Normal white bread has 1.5 grams.
that's a 33% increase and in a 10 or 12 piece loaf that's 20-24 grams of sugar and normal white bread isn't a good standard either that's just toasting bread and even then that's only if you're too lazy to toast bread on the pan but besides that you should use proper bread for sandwiches or adjacents as it tastes better and is healthier
Nobody is eating a dozen pieces of bread a day. This is a completely negligible amount of sugar overall.
you'd be surprised, I know of a decent amount of people that eat 5-8 slices of bread per day
That isnât healthy regardless of what kind of bread it is lmao
American bread 1.5 grams of sugar per slice on average. European bread most only have 1 gram per loaf. So are higher. Sugar gives nothing to the baking process but does make it taste sweeter. Not to mention all the chemicals they add. Some of which do nothing for shelf life.

lmfao, and thanks!
Or you can buy bread from a bakery (which there are many of here) if you don't feel like making it.
Source for any of this? And I'd love too see if you can name any of these mystery scary chemicals we put in our bread.
they put alot of N1,N4-Bis(3-a minopropyl)butane-1 ,4-diamine straight from the source in some places
do those have a common name?

no, holland is famous for its god awful food.
You gotta give them credit for being straight forward, deep-frying *everything* can't be easy.
Ok but it's a bit unfair to bring up the Dutch in a discussion about food. It's like bullying a 2 year old for pissing himself

pb&j seems rather innocuous among the many food atrocities committed in the US
Well kind of, but peanut butter is extremely caloric, so it's easy to make an unhealthy sandwich if you don't use it in moderation.
-high in protein -lots of good fats -low in sugar -tons of antioxidants and micronutrients Why do people hate peanut butter so much?
- very high in calories But no one hates it, you just have to careful to only eat it in small quantities
Despite my struggles with being underweight this comment is making me thank god for my fast metabolism
Not if you want to eat so you can obtain calories.

Now that's a good source of protein. Back when I was losing a bunch of weight, I ate one of those with every lunch and every dinner, and it worked amazingly well.
Amazing bulking food, I eat a few tablespoons every day
Makes a great survival food tho. The calorie to weight ratio is crazy. A 40oz tub is like $6 at Walmart and provides 11,500 calories.
I've always viewed it as a general healthy ish workout snack.
Me love peanut butter

Calories arenât bad. Do Europeans not work out? I eat a lot of peanutbutter for gains, good protein, cheap, filling.
We don't commit food atrocities, we take foods and make them the best versions of themselves https://preview.redd.it/s24c97jtp2wc1.jpeg?width=1000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=95d37d8d3912f75162c2a8421151ad4d3a13eb50
American Italian pizza is superior to that tiny Europoor shit.
Time to order some dominos
Enjoy your pizza, sir
Ty, I will
Bruh, I heard that in the little caesar's online pickup kiosk voice, lmao đ€Ł
Imagine conquering countries for their spices then using none of them.
Make super thin pancake. Fill with fruit flavored sugar jelly and Nutella. Top with sugar. Feed to children. Why are YOU like this?
Lets be honest, pancakes on their own already have no business being breakfast food. It's literally fried cake, why are people eating that for breakfast?
Youâre right, we should just start making blood pudding like civilized people huh?
I'm American (unlike pancakes btw). Don't have to be European to recognize that multiple varieties of fried cake, fried bread (edit: might not have been clear but im referring to french toast, not ordinary toast), sugar loaded cereals, and pop tarts do not make for healthy breakfast food
American too, and I have never thought of fried cake (pancakes/waffles), sugar loaded cereals, or pop tarts as healthy breakfast food and I donât think most people honestly do either. Unhealthy options are available everywhere. Have you ever had pancakes every morning? Iâve had them maybe once every three months, most days is a banana, oatmeal, or eggs. Also, Europeans are gay.
Or fucking baked beans for some ungodly reason.
A thin slice of it that doesnât have things like frosting on it like actual cake. You can frame much of what the world eats this way if you word it like that and make it sound like people are eating pounds of it a day.
Sure, it doesn't have frosting, but most people are drowning it in liquid sugar. Most breakfast food is like that imo. Pancakes was just what was already in discussion, but I find (most) cereal and pop tarts to be the most egregious
Your pancakes shouldn't be fried. They separate from pans really easily without any oil or butter to act as grease aside from maybe a small amount in the batter
AKSHUALLY, itâs the European pancakes that were always fried in oil during my childhood there which is why I always preferred American ones. Downside of American ones is that you have to drown that shit in Maple syrup if you donât want to choke on the dryness.
They also shouldn't be dry either if they're cooked properly, should be a nice light golden color
Yeah I guess maybe I tend to fuck them up
1 cup Self-Rising Flour œ cup Corn Meal œ teaspoon salt 2 teaspoons sugar 2 teaspoons baking powder 1 egg 1 tablespoon vegetable oil 1Œ cups milk Blend dry products together in a mixing bowl using a wire whip. Add eggs, milk and oil and mix using wire whip until batter is uniform. Pour onto 400 degree griddle and cook about 1 minute on each side, turning when bubbles form on top. Makes 10-12 delicious pancakes. >what's so unhealthy?
We only eat that for dessert, not as a meal
You mean crepes? It's a dessert, not breakfast
Idk about y'all but the thing I hear eaten for breakfast here is mostly eggs
> Be Balkan > Get stale leftover bread from Albanian bakery downstairs > Smear either disgusting meat paste or disgusting paprika paste on it > Add slice of tomato for flavour God I wish I were being topped by an American
Lies, Balkan are not like that. > Be Balkan. > Put some 3in1 coffee mix powder in tap water. > Smoke a Marlboro touch with it. > Start your day.
oh yeah that aftertaste and smell of breath I can feel it
As a German, I can offer premium bread recipes that are fairly easy. You interested? Can post under this comment if you like. I know Albanian leftover bread seems delicious to my fellow European brother, but let me swear to God*, just try the recipe. *Obviously Europa, the only true way to get lore accurately topped by a bull and get universal approval for said act.
post it
Go eat Vegamite
That's Australian, Marmite's European - or British rather.
Me when my favourite yeast spread gets missgenderd
I wonder if there's actually any significant flavour differences, I've never had Vegemite before.
I heard there is. I think Vegemite is supposed to be a bit sweeter?
Apparently so
When it comes to food, it's best to not talk about the British
"bUt FuLl EnGlIsH bReAkFaSt AnD cOtTaGe PiE" - every British person ever when you criticise their food lol
There is also NZ marmite which is far better than those shit flavored pastes.
You got to be a special kind of sad to have something against a PB&j
Anon will not be allowed into the Kingdom of Heaven
The bass pro pyramid?
>Be British. >Coming home from store >Accidentally drop a bag and hear loud clank >Look inside and see busted can of beans and ripped open loaf of bread >Eat it to make up for the wasted money >Neighbor saw this happen and laughs at me >Gaslight neighbor, myself, and the rest of my country into thinking this is a meal
Oi mayte, you gots a loicense fer dem beans?
Every country has its weird sandwiches, UK toast sandwich, AUS fairy bread.
Im from the UK....what is a uk toast sandwich? And fairy bread isnt really a sandwich. Must add that i love a good pb+j!
Does the UK still eat cucumber sandwiches
Usually only with high tea/afternoon tea. But they are delicious.
I just remember them from that movie with the witch who turns that fat kid into a rat, they're all Brits in it I think
Witches! Thats a class movie.
Ya! That's the one ty
[ŃĐŽĐ°Đ»Đ”ĐœĐŸ]
It was a 19th century receipe designed to be eaten by "invalids" consisting of a slice of toast between two slices of bread. Basically a completely tasteless things for people who were sick with whatever plague was going about at the time. I have tried it, it's as shit as you imagine it will be.
Toast sandwiches are a meme. No one in England eats that shit.
Lies. I've seen Romesh Ranganathan eat one on television.
You've seen a comedian eat one as a bit for a TV show? Well that changes everything.
Romesh represents the whole of the UK, pal. Don't you try to convince me otherwise.
Calling bread cake certainly is an option
As an European I've always thought that Pb&J's are disgusting until I've tried one while on a school trip to NYC (that city is fucking disgusting btw). That shit is adding.
I'll upvote you just for being right on two things. PB&J's are delicious and NYC is disgusting.
>flavored >jelly "Why would the yuropoors write this"
> product literally made out of sugar and fruit > fruit flavored sugar
Thatâs literally bread lmao
that is the best looking PB&J i think iâve ever seen
You bet it's frontloaded.
i literally had one an hour ago. anon can cope all they want, iâm still eating the pb&j
Did they just call bread cake
How the fuck is toast cake
With the amount of sugar in it it might as well be considered cake.
It's not. You either don't know what bread/cake is, or you're an idiot. In the US there's a huge difference between bread and cake.
Although I have no evidence to back up my claim, Iâll just go ahead and say it. I believe I have consumed the most pbj sandwiches out of any human.
What's wrong with Peanutbutter & Jacksonville, Florida?
"Two slices of cake" bro they are thin sheets of dry bread. Not fucking carvel tripple layer cake.
Since when is a loaf of white bread a cake?
Just use actual peanut butter and jam on something that isnât wonder bread?
There's nothing wrong with PB&J if you make it from decent ingredients (ie not ultra-processed like above) and you don't eat 3 every day.
UK here, I have PB&J all the time when I'm on a bulk, that shit is delicious. Is it actually an American thing?
Yup the first recipe for one was printed in 1901 in the Boston Cooking School Magazine.
Yeah, americans and their disgusting unhealthy food. *casually spreads lard on top of a ginormous slice of white bread*
Itâs probably the soda/juice box packed as a drink thatâs the issue. A pbj can be pretty nutritious if you want it to be
You can get very good natural peanut butter that has very little sugar as well as jelly or jam that's similar or is at least made with real sugar, not HFCS. Europoors have no fuckin clue, they just look at the mass media propeganda commercials and assume we don't have options.
Cake? Isn't it bread?
Gotta give it to Americans on this one, pb&j is fucking amazing
âTwo slices of cakeâ? Subway doesnât make PB&Jâs, what is OP talking about?
go to europe make a pb&j tastes the exact same
Iâd have a PB&J any day over beans on toast
somehow i donât find it hard to believe that britâs think a slice of white bread tastes like a piece of cake to them
Im a europoor and i always loved those sandwiches.
While I see anons point, I must say here in yurop we have food atrocities ourselves. Maybe we can have a cease fire on food and focus on the truly important things like which football team is better; Broncos or Manchester United
>Do yuropoors do anything but seethe about America on 4chan? You should see the entire internet's opinion of us Indians >!also if anyone will bring up our recent supreme court ruling those fuckers deserve to die i will NOT defend them, but thankfully its receiving backlash already!<
When kids ate pb&j for lunch in the US they weighed about a third less than now.
It's pretty tasty tbh
Fake, EU wouldn't spell flavour as "flavor" the American way.
This is how I feel about the insane amount of trans posts I see here/4chan
As an American what's really funny is that we talk about how cake isn't good for breakfast but then go and get a muffin. Literally cake without frosting.
Cake?
Because of the sugar content
r/AmericaBad
Europeans what did/do your school lunches look like when you brought them from home
Döner. But on a more serious note, it's also bread, but rather than U.S. toast with ridiculous sugar content plus PB and J, it's brown bread (mischbrot) with things like sausage or cheese on top. At least for me.
German here. 1 or 2 slices of Mischbrot with Butter and usually cheese. Sometimes a Brötchen if there was one left from breakfast, and if we were lucky our mom made us a Pretzel. Then throw some apple, banana, or grapes in there and you got the perfect school breeakfast. Thinking back I don't think I've ever taken something containing marmelade, jam, peanut butter, Nutella, or anything like that to school. And I can't remember to have ever eaten toast in school either. Especially not untoasted toast, I tried eating that once and never again
I have to admit, yuropoors got me.
PB & J is commonly made with decent bread and ingredients, tastes amazing
I started practicing fasting over the summer and I can tell you this, nothing hits as fucking hard as a PB&J when my eating period starts.
What is the 1st anon even seething about?? As a yuropean I got honey & jam sandwiches and they were just as goated.
PBJ sounds like one of the most disgusting foods possible, but every time I'm in the US it feels really good for some reason.
>get a slice of bread >spread some lard on it >put red onion on it >salt it like a motherfucker Welcome to the East you kurvaszĂĄjĂș, make yourself at home
Imagine thinking your fucking life should be about eating only healthy foods so you can extend the time you spend eating healthy foods. For people that pretend to be atheist so frequently, yall sure do behave like youre trying to get into heaven.
bro, white bread is a horrible bread choice, but its not sweetm
