娱乐性解釋/意思：
For a woman to dream of eating bread, denotes that she will be afflicted with children of stubborn will, for whom she will spend many days of useless labor and worry. To dream of breaking bread with others, indicates an assured competence through life. To see a lot of impure bread, want and misery will burden the dreamer. If the bread is good and you have access to it, it is a favorable dream. See Baking and Crust.
To see or eat rye bread in your dreams, foretells you will have a cheerful and well-appointed home.
