This is a Bavarian specialty called "Öbergruatznloafdl".
It's made from oats, rye beer, Oabatzder cheese and cow hooves.

Traditionally it is served by a proposing husband to a would-be-bride's family. Large amounts of salt are added to symbolize that the marriage won't spoil, and to demonstrate wealth.

In America, we just kill each other with guns.

And he gives her this if she says no?

Oh no, her opinion doesn't factor into it.

Interesting! There is a similar specialty in Austria called Schmiaschrischnuepflmarfl but the ingredients usually include some chamois liver as well. And it's used for a slightly different purpose since it's normally served at a funeral to remind the attendance about the musculature of the legs of the departed.

As always, the Austrians are copying and perverting our sacred, ancient customs.
Chamois? Disgusting!

The bread is a receptacle into which the husband must yell SPRICH ZANGENDEUTSCH until it no longer causes physical pain.

I don't understand how any of this results in the slice being larger than the loaf.

Vegans can use their fingernails as substitute.
