Is it double roti or dabba roti? Desi Twitter debates bread

First of all, how dare you?

After the blue and black dress controversy, social media has people shaking their heads in disapproval as they debate over bread.

A person on Twitter decided to let people know that all this time we've been referring to bread as double roti while the actual term was dabba roti and no one is okay with this take.

How old were you when you realised it is Dabba roti not double roti.

Many responded to this claim starting off with "First of all, how dare you?" and much much more.

But is it really?

Today I just realized that it's Dibba roti not double roti.

How old you were when you realized the same?

Because, no

Whoever started this Dabba roti nonsense needs to go stand in the corner for spreading fake news.
Kahan se agaya dabba? Logic kya hai iski? Who calls bread "dabba" roti in urdu?

I'm highly offended by this tweet. Please take it down. It will forever be double roti...
You had no right to ruin my childhood like that

I was not prepared for this. Someone hold me.

We are not okay

It's called double roti because we saw the British making sandwiches using two slices of bread so yup. Not dabba roti. Fucking weirdos.


asad bhaiyya@sadizid

Honestly upset at twitter for teaching me that I've been sharing this planet with a bunch of people who call it dabba roti. I was better off not knowing

No affiliations whatsoever

Previous retweet not an endorsement of the ‘dabba roti’ rather than ‘double roti’ theory.

Why the F would anyone believe that double roti was ever called anything other than double roti - kya ho gya hai logon ko


What is this centrist behaviour?

@Salahsfaction

Dabba roti or double roti.
It all increases your weight.
So avoid whatever it is called.
