Well, good PR and a bunch of recipes that call for them
That we buy croutons in stores is why the French don’t believe Americans can cook
You’re wrong actually. I don’t know anyone who makes his own croutons in France. We buy them premade, they are round and small, and you can either buy the natural bread kind, or the garlic flavored kind. Link for an example: https://www.carrefour.fr/p/croutons-ail-tipiak-3185200001358
Of course you can make your own shitty croutons with bread and a toaster, but it’s annoying and most likely a waste of time because we eat croutons at most once a year.
Also we love Americans, the so-called hate between people is shitty propaganda that has been existing as long as I can remember (except for Trump, he’s an idiot in every country).
I wouldn’t tease if I didn’t love. :)
Americans think the French mock our food culture in the way that we mock their military resolve – only in jest, or on the lips of the dumbest citizens of our respective countries.
America’s far too obese to not have amazing food, and we would still be part of the British empire (or speaking German!) if the French did not know how to fight.
Giving food French names seems to make them more marketable.
croutons are just stale dry bread with incredible seasoning that taste fantastic*
toasted
Croutons are low-key a great snack too, right outta the bag.
They also don’t get soggy and dissolve when mixed with dressing the way I imagine normal bread would.
They have to do a little dance with Maillard first.
And plenty of butter and seasoning.
I hate them too. I don’t eat any bread that crunches. Nope.
