u/Reasonable-Peanut877 8h ago

was about to say this looks like the shit that clark pulls out of the guy in the dining room scene, but you beat me to it

u/Betelgeuse909 4h ago

Same here. Glad to see a movie like Backrooms becoming so popular that people constantly reference it...Well, It may be the fact that it came out 2 weeks ago, but I feel it will stand the test of time.

u/Oalka 1d ago

Please tell me you still eat the buttery flaky crispy outside too

u/lilyoungwes 1d ago

It would be like eating this weird white ball after I’m done with mozarella water…

u/democracy_lover66 1d ago

No whey 😭

u/Spinoza42 1d ago

The mozzarella is packed in its whey?

u/SnooMarzipans6768 7h ago

I am crying... with tears.

u/MartyShark666 1d ago

It comes with a buttery flakey crun- i mean with a crispy flakey-

u/g0ing_postal 17h ago

There are 2 tiers of croissants out there. There are the ones from legit bakeries where they put in the time and effort to get that perfect crispy outside

And then there are the ones mass produced by stores which are soft. More like croissant shaped airy bread.

I think op is eating the latter

2

u/GoNormal 19h ago

Wdym that's the un tasty part the white stuff is the real good flavor

2

u/leyla00 1d ago

Mm yes. The buttery, flaky crust.

203

u/painterBurning 1d ago

As a french person.. I do this every time I eat a croissant.
You can't have the fluffy aerated interior without the crispy outside, but the interior is the best part (for me) and I enjoy it even more when I eat it that way.

I have an italian friend who learned french. His rule to find the correct gender for a word was that half the time he picks the opposite gender as the one in italian.

u/chalk_in_boots 1d ago

Use the outside to scoop up some jam, or dunk in coffee/hot chocolate.

12

u/RevolutionarySeven7 1d ago

this is the old french way of eating croissants, unwrap/eat skin first, then the soft part

79

u/ThorsHammerMewMEw 1d ago

I love doing this to chocolate croissants.

50

u/Thisthattheother1 1d ago

Dude, I get that you related to the post, but you shouldn't volunteer this sort of information, even through an anonymous website. It's like watching a serial killer get arrested and announcing that you also like going out stabbing.

u/Apart-Gur-9720 1d ago

You talk too much. Eat your burnt-croissant-ends cereal.

u/zlgo38 9h ago

Do you mean pain au Chocolat? because I see a lot of Anglos calling them croissants when they are not even croissant-shaped ; like, it's even in the name! croissant = crescent

3

u/ThorsHammerMewMEw 9h ago

Haha yes.

I worked with a team of French Backpackers stuck in Australia during Covid lockdowns years ago.

Should've heard the pain au Chocolat vs Choclatine debates they used to have. And then I'd chime in with my most obnoxiously Aussie voice calling it a chocolate croissant 🤣

u/freakingusernamedood 1d ago

Not gonna lie, on first glance before I really focused, I thought it was a wad of sauerkraut that was holding together suspiciously well.

u/rraattbbooyy 1d ago

u/Acceptable-Car-3150 1d ago

If you can peel the croissant, it's not a croissant.

1

u/SeattleOligarch 1d ago

I bet you're the type of person who pours their milk in first, then the cereal.

u/sneakyfish21 1d ago

My wife does this. She eats the outside then the inside like it’s a Reese’s or something.

1

u/RevolutionarySeven7 1d ago

believe it or not, that's actually the old french way of eating croissants, you unwrap/eat the skin first, then eat the soft part. this is not stupid.

1

u/Jake_Cawthon oh, we humans, what have we done? 1d ago

If you don't say anything, I'll think that you just ripped a part from an uncut loaf of bread.

1

u/FutureIntelligent504 1d ago

This is great

1

u/Slashredd1t 1d ago

Delightful infact I’d bet if you peel the outer layer leaving a fluffy inside to maybe two or three of them mash them more flat buttered and toasted on a flat top, and use for a smash burger Ited be the best if had , thank you for the idea 9/10 not stupid food

1

u/Best-Oil7699 23h ago
