You cut a baguette down the middle to make a sandwich

    The fact that someone have to explain this, is kinda funny

    Yeah this is NoStupidQuestions so we should only have high level discourse.

    Well, theres 2 ways to parse 'no stupid questions'.

    No question is stupid, implying all questions are valid here.

    No (asking) stupid questions- this is a place for questions with either merit from the level of discourse they spark, or the value of the answer.

    Or you could do the arrested development no money down thing with it.

    No, stupid questions! (only)

    Not only that, baguettes go great with lots of cheeses.

    Pro tip: Cut the baguette in a 45° angle.

    It makes the first bite easier, and it looks better.

    Instead of cutting it off at a right angle you cut it at an angle. Personally I'm French and yeah I know of the technique but I'm not the biggest fan necessarily. Works best if you're making 2 sandwiches out of 1 baguette and fill it up first before doing the middle cut.

    Hello my name is Doug, I’m 40+ years old and I’m a fucking idiot.

    I mean I guess part of me knew, I have been to Subway and watched them slice the fucking bread. But when I see baguettes at the store I think “hm, just like Olive Garden, I can make tiny baguette slices!” I don’t think “yeah time to make some killer sandwiches.”

    …I’m going to blame my autism for this one. It probably isn’t true, but I’m gonna blame it anyway.
