Why France is finding vegan croissants hard to stomach
« on: May 05, 2024, 10:19:01 AM »
I've had a more mass produced version than this, and didn't particularly like it. It was OK, it tasted 'croissant-y' but it tasted a bit like a cheap version. It went too crispy when heated.

Started reading and quiches were mentioned. How do you make a quiche without eggs?
Peace through superior firepower.
Do not believe anything until the Kremlin denies it.

I'm not sure I've ever had a croissant, traditional, vegan or other.
I came to realise that every time we recognise something human in creatures, we are also recognising something creaturely in ourselves. That is central to the rejection of human supremacism as the pernicious doctrine it is.
