I'm just laughing at "bread" and "proof" but I know they didn't intend on the pun.

I make my own these days and regularly offer them to guests but I used to buy 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.

Mind blown!

disgusted French look of superiority

jkjk it looks like something terrible in a good way.

[-] logos@sh.itjust.works 3 points 3 hours ago

Cause it's probably 3/4 butter.

[-] Shapillon@lemmy.world 3 points 33 minutes ago

Count me in.

The only issue I see with it is that since it's wrapped in plastic it's gonna be soft and rubbery instead of crunchy.

Je suis venu faire mon français outré mais oublions OP deux minutes ? Qu'est-ce que c'est que ça ???!

[-] isVeryLoud@lemmy.ca 2 points 3 hours ago

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

[-] pseudo@jlai.lu 1 points 2 hours ago

Tu penses qu'on peut faire tourbillonner correctement le feuilletage en maintenant ce genre de forme ?

[-] isVeryLoud@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 hour ago

Bonne question... Je suis curieux maintenant, je vais aller m'instruire!

[-] Donkter@lemmy.world 20 points 6 hours 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.

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 5 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.

[-] Dkarma@lemmy.world 0 points 3 hours ago

Trailer people, really.

[-] mausy5043@lemmy.world 61 points 9 hours ago

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

[-] beanlink@lemmy.world 11 points 7 hours ago

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

[-] T00l_shed@lemmy.world 4 points 6 hours ago

Mmmm especially when they are still warm.

[-] Huschke@lemmy.world 13 points 8 hours ago

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

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.

[-] Sam_Bass@lemmy.world 34 points 10 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 24 points 9 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.
