Savory croissants are a thing. Ham and cheese, smoked salmon and capers, chicken salad and lettuce, egg omelet with prsto and caramelized onions, headcheese/liverwurst if you're lucky, etc.

Nay, this all wrong, though you can get them in some disreputable sandwich shops - but liverwurst???? You want to be sitting on a patio, in the south of France, just after the nice baker lady in a van has been and delivered your fresh croissants, and maybe a baguette or two, and with a cup of freshly brewed coffee at your elbow, and a big slab of Normandy butter, some jam, some marmalade. There will be bees humming in the lavender and/or jasmine. There will be no liverwurst!!!

  > just after the nice baker lady in a van has been and delivered your fresh croissants Are we talking about the same France here? You go to the bakery, you don't get things delivred to you.

    Every time I have been to France (in the countryside) I have bakery stuff (and other stuff) delivered. If you read any modern novels on French life you will see this happening. Do you expect people all drive into town to get their croissant?

      I actually live in France, and yes, we usually drive into town to get our croissants when we're in the countryside.

        Must be a long queue outside the boulangerie at breakfast time then? And I have lived in France, and French Switzerland, myself, so I am somewhat aware of what I am talking about.

        Not really, but we never go to places where a lot of people go. Having a few (3 to 5) people in the queue can happen but not much more.

      Most of them already live in a town. Not every French person owns a 100-acre vineyard.

  > There will be no liverwurst!!! Poppycock. Next you'll be saying that pineapple doesn't belong on pizza…
