I was invited to Jenny's house, and I was looking forward to sitting with her and enjoying the tasty food she cooks. I reached her house at 8 sharp.
All went as per schedule. The guests were already there. Jenny was busy cooking food, and a few of her friends were assisting her.
At 8.30, the table was already set. Jenny announced the table was ready, so we should join and eat our food.
I was watching as the guests started eating chicken, mutton, and other nonvegetarian foods, but as most of my friends know, I am vegetarian, so I picked up the bread and took the first bite. I felt something was missing, but it did not taste as I was expecting.
I put the bread back on my plate and ate it with a vegetarian curry, which I think was cooked for me. Jenny came and asked, "Why didn't you eat bread?"
I smiled and said there was something missing in the bread. Jenny tasted it and said, "Oh man, I forgot to use a yeast called Saccharomyces." Oh no, it's of no use now. But wait, I will bring bakery bread so you can eat your food.
I wanted to say it was okay, but she went to the nearest bakery and brought some nicely baked bread for us, and then I finished my food. Jenny was all apologetic, but it was not her fault. I said I enjoyed the food as well as your hospitality and went back home.

You know, sometimes a little mistake can ruin the whole meal. In this case, Jenny forgot to use yeast while baking the bread, which caused her embarrassment in a big way.
However, there is nothing to worry, that doesn't mean you can't make bread without yeast. Nowadays, many such things are available in the market, with the help of which you can make soft bread without yeast.
