I'll put some spicy chicken, turkey or other meat with some onions and garlic, hot out of the frying pan, maybe some hot sauce or gravy and some salad on the bread. Wrap with aluminium foil and leave it for a few minutes. Nice soft bread again...

Slightly stale? It does sounds like i can steam it back up and then use it to do other recipe. Make Garlic bread with it is great, or cube it then bake it until crunchy, then toss it into mushroom soup as topping.

I was thinking I could open a restaurant focusing on pain perdu (basically french toast)

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 day ago

So.. how thin does it air have to be? Does it only work on a mountain top? Are tastebuds affected by low air pressure?

Trickle them slowly enough onto the GE so they keep their value so I can sustain my membership through bonds.

Definitely on the 'use it to assassinate billionaires and malicious politicians' bandwagon.

One that's done, I'm spending the rest of my life traveling to feed birds at various parks, beaches, etc.

Edit - also slightly stale is perfect for making banh mi. My lunch game is about to to kick up a notch.

omg FRENCH ONION SOUP EVERYDAY

.... I'd summon a few billion directly overlapping the physical space of a corrupt politician. If outdoors, in a tall column directly above, preferably several tons worth per capita.

Some choice people from this list I have would also receive a suborbital baguette infusion.

The downside is trying to deal with the stale fallout and subsequent mess the pummeled flesh and dough would leave after... Birds everywhere would go nuts.

ORBITAL BAGUETTE STRIKE!!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 17 hours ago

Stale baguettes would make great chicken feed.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Can I summon the baguette out of the thin air inside someone's lungs? Cos that's basicly a free kill anyone wherever, whenever. U can rule the wold with that power.

[–] Stamets 5 points 1 day ago (6 children)

Nope. Similar to DnD rules on create water, it has to be an empty void that you can see. Can't summon it inside someones lungs.

[–] postmateDumbass 1 points 20 hours ago

If i summon baguettes out of fat air do they come buttered?

The cats nestle close to their kittens now.

The lambs have laid down with the sheep.

You're cozy and warm in your bed, my dear.

Please don’t the fuck go blind by making moonshine with your daily staley.

[–] FelixCress 10 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Can it be a 1 tonne baguette I would summon directly above someone's head?

According to wikipedia, the atmosphere has a mass of about 5.15×10^18 kg and a baguette has a minimum mass of 8×10^-2 kg

I only need to create 6.4×10^19 baguettes

Now i have to figure out how to monetize this

Oh that's easy: sell it at an outrageous price in upscale North American restaurants as authentic "pain Francais".

I contact every James Randi-type paranormal debunker that I can find and explain my power to them. I agree to all of their terms and agree to demonstrate it to them under whatever tightly controlled absolutely perfectly sterile conditions they want.

And I do it for them, claim my prize money, and continue on with my life.

My power is to summon a baguette, not unlimited baguettes, so I gotta make that one count and I think that's my best to get the most bang for my buck.

Or if I get to decide where exactly that baguette is summoned to, perhaps I will have it spring into existence occupying the same space as [REDACTED]'s brain stem. Having them out of the picture would greatly enrich my life.

Start a stuffing and bread pudding restaurant, or a fencing school. En Garde!

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I say "this is for the birds"... and I give unlimited free bread to the birds outside.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 22 hours ago

Feed the birds. Then what have you got? Fat birds.
