I makey own these days and regularly offer them to guests but I used to but the stores artisan breads for lunch while working construction when I was young.

The cost to create of a family size loaf of jalapeno and mozzerella stuffed herb focaccia is about $4.87, lower if you cheap out on oil, so theres tons of room for markup even if the store ends up throwing most of it out.

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.

C'est juste un gros croissant shapé comme une miche de pain

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.

Our local chain, Hannaford, has pretty good stuff actually. Their cakes and pastries are good too. Walmart bakery is trash, but it's Walmart. They do pizza rolls 👌

[-] Badeendje@lemmy.world 3 points 3 hours ago

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.

[-] mostdubious@lemmy.world 15 points 4 hours ago

thought the same fucking thing. like, "ok then. go buy some more white wonder bread, ya basic bitch"

[-] mausy5043@lemmy.world 59 points 6 hours ago

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

[-] beanlink@lemmy.world 10 points 4 hours 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 4 hours ago

Mmmm especially when they are still warm.

[-] Huschke@lemmy.world 12 points 6 hours ago

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

boule shamed into a doughy closet

[-] Agent641@lemmy.world 18 points 6 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.

[-] Coreidan@lemmy.world 2 points 3 hours ago

I think you just do too much drugs.

[-] Sam_Bass@lemmy.world 34 points 8 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 22 points 6 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 said piqued his curiosity, and instead of trying it to see what it's like he goes straight to schizo posting about it on the Internet?

this is why trump is winning.

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 3 hours ago

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

[-] OozingPositron@feddit.cl 3 points 5 hours ago

So many people taking this seriously, kek.
