An overcooked bread isn't well cooked. So a well cooked bread is necessarily not too cooked. And yet, asking for "well cooked" or "not too cooked" bread in a bakery have well distinct meanings... (sh.itjust.works)

I've never heard bread referred to as "cooked" in my entire life. Baked, yes.

You’re telling me you’ve been eating dough this whole time?

Most bakery bread doesn't even include eggs milk and salt

Bread is just flour, water, yeast and salt (you really need the salt). If it has anything else, you're either being sold something fancy or some industrial crap.

Baking is just one type of cooking.
