Do they sell BAGUETTES by the can at all?

ORIGINAL AUS FRANKREICH
ZU HAUSE SELBST BACKEN!

I have - of course - eaten these and they were kind of alright in an odd way but I was in the grip of an amour fou at the time so even dog biscuits would have been a delight and treasure

What FILLING did you have or was it RATHER DRY

 

[Alla]

I also watch everything! Well, not everything, as some things I buy and I don't need them now or don't go in the fridge I just leave them in quarantine in a spare room.

I haven't had a croissant in 8 weeks

I made them once these weeks, but it's such a hard work and it takes so much time that I can't be arsed and I go with cookies or sponge cake.

Croissants don’t need a FILLING. How terribly common! @Dark Carnival can you have a word please

We might have had HOT DOGS with them. Or something equally odd

Nowt wrong with a bit of BUTTER or some CONFITURE DE FRAISE

 

[Alla]

Croissants are made with a lot of butter, they don't need more.

I’ll never forget the first time I had what looked like a croissant in Italy, bit into it and some sickly sweet goo came out

 

[Lucille]

Oh God THEM!

I thought WTG was MAKING THIS UP!

Darling they don’t do them in Poundland so you won’t have seen them. Very much a LUXURY ITEM

Cornetti are wonderful, especially the ones with honey in them.

 

[Peekaboo]

French croissants have FILLINGS bien sûr!

The best croissant aux amandes I had in my life was in a St Barts CONVENIENCE STORE of all places

 

[AGinAg (37)]

NO ONE CLAPPING ON MY STREET TONIGHT!

 

[Zu]

Bit muted here TBH

 

[win_the_game]

I actually forgot all about it.

 

[Soldi]

We had POTS and PANS again on OUR STREET, even PHOTOGRAPHS

Plenty of people clapping for @ButterTart despite having NO IDEA who he is

 

[Beverley]

Nobody claps on our miserable street

 

[Shirley]

Nobody claps round here so I've taken up doing it to accompany the distant sound of BANGING POTS from the COMMON END

Naturally I go out the back to do it, I don't like to be SEEN

NOTHING goes in a croissant

NO

I had it hammered into me at a young age that a certain amount of germs and nasties are actually necessary, so I've really just breezed through this period not even thinking about giving my ready-meal-for-one a scrub before I bung it in the microwave.

Everyone else is out here developing a COMPLEX and I'd still follow the five second rule. I'm surprised to have made it this far.

Honestly I’m the same to the point I put my son in a puddle of mud in place of a school for a few years. A bit of dirt is good for you.

They don’t but it doesnt hurt.

My housemate is highly stressed and overworked these days and sometimes just takes 10 minutes for an overdue lunch. Her go-to is a croissant filled with scrambled egg and avocado. A bit of a LIBERTY and not TRÈS FRANÇAIS but I think I probably WOULD

 

[Lucille]

What about HAM AND CHEESE?

 

[Indie]

I don't mind a croissant with some ham and cheese in. I don't care what that makes me .

 

[Jark]

I must say I'm really a big fan of peanut butter (crunchy, naturellement) spread on a croissant and popped under the grill until it's all a bit of a MELTY CRUNCHEST feels a bit debauched but anything to piss off the French

 

[Indie]

Woah. I was posting that at the same time.

 

[AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaAAaaaA]

Some local LOON clapped near me (on their own) until EIGHT THIRTY PM tonight. Naturally I called the police

GIVE THEM MONEY, you can’t pay for your weekly shop in CLAPS!
Whilst initial a nice gesture, I now find it so empty and patronising.

 

[Kala]

Oh let's not START the croissant argument. Fuck having it with jam and butter, I usually do not have any filling and I just dunk mine in my coffee. A few of my colleagues were AGHAST when I did this!

I am so trying that the next time I have a croissant

Same. When I was a young un (2-3) I had a weird thing where I would look for/eat chewing gum from the ground !!

Covid 19 wont touch me!

[Lucille]

THE FUCK?

 

[Logic?]

I should point out I grew up in a very poor Colombian city and had next to no food. Not that that makes it any more acceptable

 

[ButterTart]

I actually think croissants are quite shit unless there's cheese in them.

The chewing gum thing has made me want to gip a little bit. I once some gum that my friend had already started chewing when I was pilled up, and the thought of that makes me queasy now...

WHAT?

 

[Dark Carnival]

I mean obviously... but... WHAT?!

If the croissant is GOOD doesn't need anything else; probably you buy not very good ones if they "need" cheese.

Well this is relatively new information. I think.
