Different Breads for Different Sins

On the Jewish New Year, Rosh Hashanah, there is a ceremony called Tashlich. Jews traditionally go to the ocean or a stream or river to pray and throw bread crumbs into the water. Symbolically, the fish devour their sins. Occasionally, people ask what kind of breadcrumbs should be thrown. Here are suggestions for breads which may be most appropriate for specific sins and misbehaviors:

For ordinary sins...................White Bread
For erotic sins.....................French bread
For particularly dark sins..........Pumpernickel
For complex sins....................Multigrain
For twisted sins....................Pretzels
For tasteless sins..................Rice Cakes
For sins of indecision..............Waffles
