I went years not eating these because of the terror and anxiety of having to open one. And one day by chance (dropped it in the sink that had water in it.) I found the secret to not getting the piss scared out of you.

Here it is. These cans are cardboard. Cardboard disintegrates in water.

If you peel back just a little of the paper. And sit it in a bowl, Make sure the side you peeled is facing down. and pour in a little water.

Then quickly leave the room or put it in your fridge or something. And in a minute or two it will pop open. And you will hear it from a safe distance. And you will be okay.

They changed the cans, there's no spoon needed for the Pillsbury ones anymore (but store brand ones, at least Aldi, still do need the spoon). I baked a couple of tubes of the Pillsbury croissants yesterday, no spoon. They have the taste and texture of the biscuits which means they fail as croissants but they're still pretty tasty.

    Yeah I agree the croissant ones are probably just the same dough as the biscuits, just cut up differently.

    They seem like they puff up a bit more though. But really similar.

    You ever have a croissant crust pizza?

    I think dijorno brand had them for a while. The crust is like the Pillsbury croissants.

    It's pretty good fresh. But crust on edges gets hard if you reheat it layer. Though that's true for most pizza crust.

    Idk how healthy it is considering croissants have so much butter in them. I only bought it a few times. But it was tasty.
