On Ubuntu, sh (or more accurately, /bin/sh) is "dash" and not "bash". When you use sh filename you force the script to be interpreted by dash. When you use ./filename the script is interpreted by whatever the "shebang" (#!... on first line) says, and this is normally the interpreter the script has been written for (bash, likely).

[2] Bakers' confectionery, also called flour confections , includes principally sweet pastries, cakes, and similar baked goods. Sugar confectionery includes candies ( sweets in British English), candied nuts, chocolates, chewing gum, bubble gum, pastillage, and other confections that are made primarily of sugar. In some cases, chocolate confections (confections made of chocolate) are treated as a separate category, as are sugar-free versions of ...
