Ok but if you see sliced croissant loaf, fucking buy that shit, buy two, immediately. I don't even like to shop any more at places where they don't sell it.

disgusted French look of superiority

jkjk it looks like something terrible in a good way.

[-] Donkter@lemmy.world 8 points 1 hour ago

To be fair, the quality of the bread in these mass produced "artisan bakery" sections can be trash tier, like sometimes it's wonder bread level but even more dry. Idk why they decide to do it. Maybe it was fresh at one point but these displays can get left out all week.

Yeah a d by the time you are spending that kind of money on bread, either get it from an actual bakery or make it yourself.

[-] Coreidan@lemmy.world 2 points 1 hour ago

I think you just do too much drugs.

[-] mausy5043@lemmy.world 46 points 3 hours ago

I often buy these. But, I always take care noone sees me buying them.

[-] beanlink@lemmy.world 7 points 1 hour ago

I buy those baguettes and it would be lucky to make it home so I always buy two.

[-] T00l_shed@lemmy.world 3 points 1 hour ago

[-] Huschke@lemmy.world 10 points 3 hours ago

This is the way. Don't let OP know about us.

[-] Agent641@lemmy.world 14 points 3 hours ago

The bread is a decoration indeed. It's there for the same reason the flowers are out the front of the supermarket, it makes the store look more welcoming and less like a warehouse that is engineered to siphon money from your wallet.

Nobody buys that shit. We just wait for them to yeet it in the dumptster out back, then we cut the chain and take it home.

[-] Johnmannesca@lemmy.world 2 points 2 hours ago

Most reasonable Americans, and the larger worldwide Culinary Arts groups would prefer to wait a day and get them on sale so we can make fresh croutons; if you ever wonder why there's a discount rack that's always near empty in your local bakery, it's probably someone buying out the day old lot for the afforementioned croutons or something like crostini for some kind of appetizer dish.

[-] AsheHole@lemmy.world 1 points 26 minutes ago

I was always taught to do this with bread crumbs as well, throw it in the oven to dry it out and smashhhhhh.

[-] Sam_Bass@lemmy.world 32 points 5 hours ago

the bread is real. what you arent seeing is the removal of the unsold products that are almost certainly being donated to homeless shelters and hog farmers, then replaced with fresh loaves the next day. there are fda rules in place to prevent leaving such products out more than a couple days.

[-] bad_alloc@lemmy.dbzer0.com 17 points 3 hours ago

are almost ~~certainly being donated to homeless shelters~~ being thrown away and people who are taking some are persecuted... and hog farmers

fixed that for you :)

you're telling me that this guy saw something that he didn't understand, but payed piqued his curiosity, and instead of trying it to see what it's like he goes straight to skizo posting about it on the Internet?

this is why trump is winning.

I m French and in France we buy EVERY bread in a bakery .for real after 5pm you have basically nothing .

[-] Agent641@lemmy.world 10 points 3 hours ago

The French sure do love their

[-] HootinNHollerin@lemmy.world 3 points 2 hours ago* (last edited 2 hours ago)

I’m American (California) and the local bakery sells out daily too

[-] AnUnusualRelic@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago

That's because we don't put it in plastic. Who wants to buy soft (and apparently underbaked) bread? Apart from US people, I mean.

[-] MonkderVierte@lemmy.ml 6 points 4 hours ago

Same here, swiss.

[-] lugal@lemmy.world 7 points 5 hours ago

France has laws against throwing away food which makes them plan better. In Germany, the shelfs are full till the end so customers can choose. I think this is changing too but I'm not often in bakeries that late.

This is your last chance. After this, there is no turning back.

You take the normal bread – the story ends, you wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe.

You take the fancy bread – you stay in Wonderland, and I show you how deep the rabbit hole goes. Remember, all I'm offering is the truth – nothing more.”

[-] Disaster@sh.itjust.works 5 points 4 hours ago

"Wait.. did you just eat both loaves at once??!"
