I am glad that my prompt allowed you to write your headcanon! I like it when the world works like that!
The 'just arrives' nature of so many things at Hogwarts really intrigues me. Does it apply to things like toothpaste? And shampoo? Or are there spells for that? What do the Muggleborn students think about it? And, if we assume that the laws of physics apply in Hogwarts/the Magical world, where does the matter to make the food come from? Because, fine, when at Hogwarts it appears on a plate because the House Elves magic it to the plate, so an equal amount of something at either end of the equation. But does that apply when food can be magicked into existence? (Although, thinking about that, I am not sure if there is an instance of food being magicked into existence in the books. Hmmm.)
So, what does Remus tell his customers about the differences between the loaves? I bet he has devoted customers who only come to the shop on the days following the full moon because they like those particular loaves so much.
