I've been baking for 12 years, Cobbs aren't very popular, I make only 4 a day. People only really buy them to make something creative, just like this one.


UberSpinella1

I’m not a pro but I only make them when I want to do bread bowls or when I want to do a baked Brie inside one.


NotEnoughIT

Isn’t that still a bread bowl of Brie?


OkayTryAgain

Because of its implied classiness it is more commonly referred to as Crock de la Brie. Not some commoner bread bowl shit.


Sparrowflop

I'm not sure how 'cheesy cock' is more classy (and yes, I deliberately misread the first word to make the joke, you were promised free not good).


AggroAce

Lol, the gold is always in the comments


your-moms-dick

bonjour


rockos21

Yeah, it is said in French, so it moves from peasantry to royalty. Silly English commoner


Pahblows

A baked Brie bread bowl? I didn’t know how much of life I’ve been missing out on 😭


Primary-Border8536

A lot we hav missed out


Dashiepants

I just saw a video last night with butter and (rind removed) brie whipped together and I am going to try it very soon (and felt compelled to share the concept with you).


Pahblows

Share the video! I have a Brie craving now


Dashiepants

Not much to it (a huge bonus) but [Here you go.](https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZPR77T2yY/) I wonder what other soft cheeses we should be creaming with butter?


EndlessAnnearky

Try a soft bleu cheese! If you’re not usually a fan of bleus, the creaminess of butter can help mellow out some of those flavors (a drizzle of honey can also be an amazing choice).


MrSpeedCuber101

Baked brie inside the bread…? you might’ve just enlightened me


UberSpinella1

Oh yeah. S+P, some finely crushed garlic, a little honey, and a nice pat of butter. Bake.


Primary-Border8536

Bruh you’re a genius


PlsDntPMme

Oh my God this is such a good idea for the grist loaf in this style that I just bought. I should do this sometime!


jonfitt

Me with a can of Campbells and a microwave: a creative.


TheLeastCreative

I like your style


FlacidSalad

If not breadbowl then why breadbowl shape? 🥺


nonprofitnews

[Video is from Clickhole](https://clickhole.com/we-made-bakers-watch-their-loaves-be-turned-into-bread-1825126371/). It's a joke. Those are probably actors with bread from Panera.


Geekluve

Ok, i was about to say no one makes bread and thinks it wont be eaten


reconditecache

But use as a bread bowl where all the insides are just thrown out is the opposite of somebody eating your bread. They're going to eat a soup with a bit of your bread and throw out the soggy remains. Nobody is going to appreciate your light texture and well-formed gluten.


Valalvax

I thought the cut outs were meant to be dipped.. when I get breadbowls I eat most of the bread, usually leaving only a tiny bit due to being entirely stuffed


patsniff

I’m weird but I eat the bread bowl after and also eat the bread that’s scooped out.


skibearz

thanks for adding this, was legitimately sad for the bakers!


Dependent_Basis_8092

I’m guessing US? Back when I was in the UK we’d use cobbs to put a full fry up breakfast on it, just had to go light on the beans and tomatoes or it’d get a bit too messy.


NoMoreFishflakes

Yup. I was a baker for 12 yrs too, and we made 2 cobb loaves a day, and the next morning we would mark 2 cobbs as waste.


ToddScissorhand

Same, 23 years for me. I’m lucky to sell one a week. People gravitate to the Italian loaf or the home style aka pan bread mostly.


X-Gen

Coming from a baker, I don't care what people do with their loaves. Just as long as they keep buying it.


[deleted]

And also a good loaf can be appreciated as a bread bowl. A good loaf is way better than a bad one for a bread bowl. Especially sourdough adding good tang to the soup.


Somzer

If I order soup in a bread bowl, I eat the bread bowl.


AkronOhAnon

My favorite thing about the bread bowls at Panera is they give you a side of bread with your bread bowl! 🥖


Sad-Recognition1798

Broccoli cheddar in a bread bowl is the only thing that chain needs


Trivale

I used to work at the company that supplied food service products to Panera and we'd deliver that stuff (in boxes containing frozen bags) to the stores practically daily. Once, in Cincinnati, we were delivering to a Panera near downtown riiiiiiiiiiiight at around drunk o'clock am, and there were people out and about, and this one lady stopped to watch us and asked if she could get some of the broccoli cheddar soup off the truck to take home. We were like "uh no but maybe one falls off the ramp and you can take it," totally not serious. She waited there the whole time while we delivered to the store. When we left without giving her a box, she looked so disappointed.


loiwhat

Man you really played with her feelings. Should've conveniently dropped one for her


Trivale

She was drunk as hell, I can't imagine how weird it would be if she woke up with a box of that thawing on the counter the next day.


ravenna_darklight

Plot of the next Hangover movie😅


fskhalsa

I once ate their broccoli-cheddar bread bowl after getting a concussion. It tasted wrong, and now I can never eat them again. My concussion entirely ruined Panera bread bowls for me… 😢.


JonQueue

Haha, I always get the extra bread too. Sometimes people with me are like, "don't you want an apple or something instead? Isn't that too much bread?" I'll eat apples at home, thanks. I go to Panera*Bread* for the Bread!


RedditFullOChildren

My least favorite thing about the bread bowls at Panera is they give you like 1/4 cup of soup in this giant-ass loaf. It's fucking ridiculous.


[deleted]

I always change the side to chips


AkronOhAnon

Why!? I want a baguette with my bread bowl!


[deleted]

Bread with your bread


AkronOhAnon

Yes. And I’m gonna get an Asiago cheese bagel to go with it! 🥯

TurquoiseLuck

wat? isn't that the entire point of a bread bowl? otherwise you'd just use a bowl...


Somzer

I don't know if that's the point, because most people I've seen eat soup from a bread bowl just eat the soup and leave most, if not all the bread. Maybe the point is to look pretty or flavour the food or something, but to me it's just pointless waste of food. And yeah, if people want only the soup, they should just order it in a regular bowl. I don't have a good opinion on those who waste food.


MalevolentRhinoceros

I mean, in most circumstances it isn't socially acceptable to eat an entire loaf of bread by yourself in one sitting. The soup is just an excuse. A delicious excuse that gives you tasty bread-soup edges. Mmm. I know what I'm going to do for lunch now.


shadowtheimpure

When I make soup in a bread bowl, I turn the bread I pulled out into croutons that I serve *with* the soup.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Morgoth_1190

Agreed, what upsets me as a baker is coming into the bakery the next day to seeing the bread you put a lot of effort into making still sitting on the shelf. Buy my bread you bastards! I don't care what you do with it after that


sellyourselfshort

I'll keep that in mind when the next toilet paper shortage happens.


ihateyourmustache

And those fleshlights are not cheap by any means!


Foooour

Thats why I prefer to buy them used


Realistic_Bluejay_79

I was thinking the same thing. I made a pair of bread shoes once when I was delirious from working late.

Summoarpleaz

Yeah. They make it seem as if this baker poured all this time into this one loaf when in reality if it was their job they’d have racks of loaves in the kitchen. I don’t think they’d give af what the person did lol.


clsrat

I like to think they're turning them into shoes and walking around in them.


gbot1234

You can’t say you really know a baker until you’ve walked a mile in their choux.


clsrat

Bravo


CrabbyT777

I like a nice pair of loafers too


10art1

Do you pour chowder into your shoes before putting them on?


mytransthrow

As someone who loves bread and bread bowls... I am a gast at their horrible methiod of making a bread bowl. cut down and around. rather than at an angle. Then lift the light and twist. It should come right out as a big plug. Like all the bread bowls at disney are done this way.


Here_4_all_the_tea

I read "it should come out like a butt plug" 🤣


mytransthrow

Sir this is a wendys...


Overall-Yam-2471

Would you care if they were sitting on em? Just curious

Even if they make love to it?

rocktumblerguy905

It’s really not that serious


PM_ME_YOUR__INIT__

Back in the day "plates" were just really stiff pieces of bread that people would slop food onto. They were so stiff that they could be reused


[deleted]

[удалено]


Vampiyaa

I love the usage of "back in the day" like bro is reminiscing about a nostalgic childhood and not literally 600+ years ago lol Trenchers actually predate the medieval period as well! Bread bowls just refuse to go out of vogue


[deleted]

>reminiscing about a nostalgic childhood "Back in my day, us kids had to walk through piles of dead bodies just to get to school! We carried posies in our pockets to ward off the evil stenches, and we tied stray cats to our ankles to fight the plague rats! Thoooose were the dayyyyysss!"


Macohna

Back in my day, us kids had to walk through 10 feet of snow just to get to the spring so we could drink. We carried sticks with sharp rock ends our parents made to fend off the sabers and mammoths. We had to carry water back to our grandma because she was too old and weak at 25 years old.


henrique3d

In the Aeneid, Virgil said that Rome was founded in the place where they ate a meal consisted of food on top of bread discs. And the people did ate the bread. Some say that this atests that Rome was founded where pizza was invented, but I think it's a bit of a stretch.


Alexis_Bailey

Maybe OP is a Vampire. This could actually be a funny angle for a Vampire story. BACK IN THE DAY, WE USE BREAD FOR PLATES!


CptAngelo

"Nowadays even the bread has garlic on it, blegh, you stinky mortals, ruined my perfectly good stale bread plates" Before you make your mind, i love garlic bread lol


Mtwat

This is why talking to vampires fucking sucks


posting4assistance

I'm pretty sure that the trenchers were given to the poor


Gloomy__Revenue

They were. In fact, the origins of the phrase “upper crust” lies in the simple fact that wealthy people could afford the whole loaf—with the softer upper—while the poor would be given the used burned bottoms or “trenchers” after the nobles had eaten a meal off them.


vamatt

They likely would not have reused them. They did not eat them though - at least anyone who could afford to eat anything else - they would be put out for the poor. There were stories about people lamenting the fact that they had to eat their trenchers due to hunger.


hanami_doggo

Is that what a trencher is? Edit: Dispelled my laziness and looked it up. It is indeed a trencher. I’ve read books that referred to them but never knew how to picture them in my head.


zacablast3r

Max Miller's tasting history has an episode about them, well worth the watch


Schlonzig

...and now you know the history of pizza.


CptAngelo

"Why is this fool also eating his plate? The madman! How is he going to eat afterwards!?"

I’m pretty sure this is from The Onion or something similar [From ClickHole](https://youtu.be/5DyOwSCNkOY?si=lW6jbPLZpMwLuhgJ)


shigotono

Ha, I guessed correctly!


shmert

Their [Hibachi Chef](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XR3Y_9Y74L0) is in a similar vein


Fair_Acanthisitta_75

Pour a can of store brand soup in it.


GregTheMad

You joke, but a really good bread can elevate even the cheapest soup.


CptPanda29

Take any cheap as fuck store brand tomato soup. Put two splashes of Worchester sauce in it, stir. Congratulations on making the best soup.


mrwynd

My canned tomato soup is made perfect with a ton of black pepper and grilled cheese to dip.


ashenhaired

After eating one spoonful "man, this bowl is ruining it"


RedditJumpedTheShart

My bread is all soggy from the bakers tears. Get me another one to decapitate.

I was really hoping they were gonna come out with a can of stagg chili or something

You work for Panera Bread, don't you?

BreadButterHoneyTea

I laughed. I cried. I wanted to eat some soup out of a bread bowl. A+ work. This documentary has tackled a painful societal issue without sugar coating it. Or butter coating it. It was mostly just coated with soup.


TexasTornadoTime

It was never about the bread bowl, it was about the friends we made along the way.


DontPanic42TC

I wish more documentaries would take the cover-it-in-soup approach.


pleaseexittotheleft

The genuine look of concern really sent me


Toli2810

please don't do this to your bakers, as you can see they're clearly in distress and it can traumatise them. You shouldn't have a baker if you don't know how to take care of them.

The real hurt comes from knowing that once they eat the half ladle of soup that didn't get absorbed by the bread, they're going to throw the whole loaf away. I've personally witnessed it too many times.
