I just wasted 7 minutes trying to confirm or deny this on Google, lol.

@Bumbles Inconclusive. I couldn't find a website that would translate pumpernickel as anything other than pumpernickel. 😆

Edit: I just found it. Confirmation on Wikipedia.

@LordShadowfire Older form of German, probably why not.

@Bumbles I found out why. Apparently it's because the bread is hard to digest and results in nasty flatulence.
