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.

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

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

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

    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.

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

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

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

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

    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.
