Grumpy German Bread Celebrates 25 Years of Unintentional Adult Appeal

Bernd das Brot, a perpetually pessimistic bread puppet from a German children's show, is celebrating his 25th anniversary. Initially a sketch on a napkin, Bernd's grumpy demeanor and signature exclamation, "Mist!" resonated unexpectedly with adult viewers, making him a cult classic. His journey includes winning a German Emmy equivalent, a kidnapping incident, and now, an attempt at becoming a bread influencer. This year's celebrations include new episodes and online activities.
