This is not a cheese Danish! the Generalissimo said. You promised me cheese Danish! I salute your deception!
He saluted.
It wasnt much of a deception. When I went to Albertsons, I bought two things that looked like cheese Danishes, only one of them turned out to be a cheese croissant. No big whoop. Wed try it, and if he liked it, then all was right with the world. Except, I made the mistake of trying it first.
You look ill, young Thurman! Am I correct in assuming this fine looking pastry is less than it appears?!
Indubitably.
He had no idea. The bread was dry. Dry croissants arent usually bad, but theyre at least tasty in a buttery goodness sort of way. This wasnt. The frosting was pretty good, but also dry. And dont get me started on the filling. It had the consistency of dog vomit, and Im guessing didnt taste much better. I certainly didnt enjoy it.
Where is the cheese Danish you promised?!
Wait here. Ill see if I can find one.
If you see this pastry at the store, do yourself a favor: keep walking.
