I used to peel all my croissants and store them in my walls as insulation then wrap the peels around real insulation and sell them at a local church bake sale. Man those old Christians love eating insulation wrapped in a thin layer of bread.

[–] Thatuserguy@lemmy.world 15 points 1 month ago

How dare you. Ruining a nice, tasty piece of insulation with croissant bread? I absolutely despise the French.

[–] Bruncvik@lemmy.world 47 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Silly person. Everybody knows that most of the nutrients and vitamins the croissant provides are in its peel.

[–] bluesheep@sh.itjust.works 20 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Just don't eat the core. There's cyanide in the seeds

[–] gnutrino@programming.dev 17 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (2 children)

I heard about someone that ate a croissant core and then a croissant tree grew out of his stomach and killed him!

[–] WaxRhetorical@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

Worth the sacrifice, a croissant tree can feed an entire village

[–] TigerAce@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Actually, this is an urban myth. The skin has as much vitamins and nutricians as the rest of the croissant. It was a white lie created to motivate kids to eat the skin as well. But actually the skin is worse to eat. It contains the highest doses of pesticides so it's better to peel.

[–] PapaStevesy@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Nah, all the fiber is in the peel!

It depends on the croissant. Sometimes they are so flaky and crispy that you can't successfully peel them. They just shatter.

[–] TabbsTheBat@pawb.social 14 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Not quite a croissant, but I know multiple people who peel curd cheese doughnuts before eating them (and eat the skin separately)

[–] Mister_Feeny@fedia.io 10 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I've never heard of a curd cheese doughnut, but am I wrong in assuming you must be from Wisconsin?

[–] TabbsTheBat@pawb.social 9 points 1 month ago

You would be wrong :3

From lithuania. Somewhat of a traditional food here, we have them everywhere lol

[–] Pickleideas@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

I knew someone who peeled their corndogs and ate the parts separately.

[–] nightofmichelinstars@sopuli.xyz 12 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

The croissant is clearly uncomfortable. It didn't consent to this photo.

[–] Formfiller@lemmy.world 12 points 1 month ago (1 children)

That’s not a real croissant a real croissant has layers

[–] WhiskyTangoFoxtrot@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago

It's just sparkling bread.

[–] fedikitty@piefed.social 8 points 1 month ago

Ashamedly I do peel it a few inches at a time sometimes.. like a banana.

[–] HulkSmashBurgers@reddthat.com 7 points 1 month ago

Flayed croissant.

[–] Etterra@discuss.online 6 points 1 month ago (1 children)

What is _wrong_with some people? At least they're not eating kiwi fruit skin.

[–] Agent641@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

The skin is the best part. We eat them like apples, skin on.

[–] dan69@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

Clearly all croissants come burned!

[–] prime_number_314159@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

I unroll mine (eating as I go), and enjoy it flat. At first that was what I expected...

When my nephew was 3, he would eat the center of a croissant, and ignore the rest, that's similar.

[–] grrgyle@slrpnk.net 3 points 1 month ago

Nah I used to do this as a kid
