Instead they would have made good weapons to keep in your arsenal.  Lethal weapons.

I haven't had a lot of success with no knead , I did use a recipe that my father uses, which required very little kneading and they weren't to bad, but did have a slight cake texture to them and were a little sweet for my palette,,

A little sugar is supposed to make them light. Too much sugar is revolting. Mine had too much sugar which did nothing to decrease their density lol.

in this recipe the sugar was added to really kick start the yeast , that was my feeling as it was added to the water and yeast before mixing with the flour,

Whick may make them light but it is no substitute for working the proteins " gluten" in the flour

They're good 2. They're actually really good sliced on crackers with some camembert cheese. Sounds like a terrible combination but it's Mmm Mmm!

But baking from scratch requires exact measurements most of the time.

I cook every day. Cooking now.  Just opened a brew too. Lol.
I bake less frequently.

Not counting chiken and poke chops.....

Real men...COOK.

It's one more test of manhood that I fail.
