Alla, you probably aren't aware of a maxim of BRITISH CUISINE: why just taste one simple yet intense flavour when I could LATHER EVERYTHING UP IN FAT.

 

[Soldi]

I grew up (am growing up?) in the middle of nowhere and we don’t even have roads so no pavement chewing gum for me

 

[ButterTart]

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

I don't really like pastries at all, if I'm honest. I need the cheese to make it palatable.

 

[Lucille]

I’d rather eat a croissant stuffed between two blocks of cheddar.

 

[Lucille]

This will horrify DC. My friend likes eating Comte with MINI SNICKERS.

 

[Soldi]

We’ve started getting WEEKLY DELIVERIES from a local bakery which has some rather delicious CHEESE & ONION pasties and JAM TARTS.

He lives in the UK of course the croissants he buys are SHIT

 

[Phoenix]

What’s the point of a plain croissant? I prefer scones.

 

[Dark Carnival]

This will horrify DC. My friend likes eating Comte with MINI SNICKERS.

I’m more CONFUSED to be honest. Are we talking about Snickers the CHOCOLATE?

Oh you should try a Tesco PAN AU CHOCOLAT and eat it on the way to your morning lecture. A FLAKY MESS

 

[D5K]

Now that I have to try.

That should horrify everyone with taste buds.

YES

Oh if my beard is not filled pain au chocolat flakes by the time I get to the metro I’m going back to the boulangerie and asking to SPEAK TO THE MANAGER

 

[Dark Carnival]

YES

WHY

HOW?

 

[Soldi]

I don’t have that problem being SEVEN you see

It really doesn’t take much to get me going nowadays

 

[AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaAAaaaA]

LITERALLY!

Almond, cheese or NOTHING!

 

[Peekaboo]

WHY

HOW?

I suggest you don't pay a visit to the McDonald's thread if you don't want to be witness to some of the HORRORS these BARBARIANS eat.

 

[Dark Carnival]

But I love watching DISASTERS

What's French for Karen?

Omg mardy bitch who won in 1983 was called CORINNE. IT ALL MAKES SENSE NOW.

She fits the description pereftly

 

[Kate]

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!

Oh MY you are Mr Kate’s actual soulmate. His favourite thing is a croissant dipped in the foam on a cappuccino.

 

[Kate]

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!

JESUS FUCKING CHRIST

hey croissant people: get a(nother) room.

Millions of people are dying every minute and this lot see fit to do a pastry rate.

Anyway, people have stopped giving a shit about social distancing, our cunt Prime Minister blurted out a vague, on-the-spot lie that lockdown will be eased as of Monday, and the papers have latched on to it in what has been a fucking conga line of irresponsibility.

These are the same papers who prattle on about the Blitz spirit and the indomitable will of the British people, yet seem to think we can't manage six weeks without Wetherspoons.

 

[octophone]

We must be due another Priti Patel car crash press conference - they've wheeled her out about once a fortnight, haven't they? That could brighten up Saturday.

(in other news - "croissant" comes from the French word meaning "a fucking mess")

British exceptionalism. America suffers from it too. Hence the death rates.

How will they ever cope if Brexit happens?

 

[octophone]

Well...maybe the only reason the Tories caved in and did a lockdown was to see how people would cope with shortages, restrictions etc rather than being a matter of international pressure.

 

[SDF]

I don’t understand why @Dark Carnival doesnt just spray his croissants with disinfectant too

 

[SDF]

And when did a little extra butter ever hurt anything?

 

[Dark Carnival]

Butter is ok. The more butter the better.

 

[Soldi]

I mean they probably are more TASTY in FRENCHLAND but I couldn’t imagine eating a BARE croissant here, SO DRY.

 

[win_the_game]

I had no idea SDF and Dark Carnival were members of the Ina Garten fan club.
