Is bread- making still popular in Goa? How do you know?

Yes, bread-making is still popular in Goa. The author says that the mixers, moulders, and those who bake the loaves were still present in Goa. The age-old, time-tested furnaces still existed. The ‘thud’ and ‘jingle’ of the traditional baker’s shampoo, marking his arrival in the morning, could still be heard in some places. It was a family profession, which was carried out generation after generation.
