+61 Bread with eggs and sugar or just sugar is not bread, its a pastry, amirite?

I mean most bread is made with a little bit of sugar to help feed the yeast so by your definition bread doesn't actually exist and all bread like items are actually pastries.

I think people who make bread or pastry don't even care about the definition like this though.

Bread is not pastry. Some breads have things in common. It's not just ingredients though, it's also the preparation and the end product. White sandwich bread has plenty of sugar and nobody will confuse it with pastry, it's just crappy bread.
