There is a huge culture of eating flatbreads that came to us from the countries of the East. In Central Asia, flatbreads are still revered much more than the typical loaf of bread.
Probably, such a strong respect for flatbreads is connected with the history of these peoples, as well as with culture and traditions. For example, flatbreads are not recommended to be cut with a knife. They are broken with hands.
You also can’t throw flatbreads in the trash – this is considered a sign of negligence and disrespect for bread.
