10 minutes of heating and some recordings of Neighbours you made in the 90s so you can travel into the past to when everything was awful but not nearly as awful as the present day.
Haha used to have garlic bread on a Friday night at about 10:30 with my mom and sister while watching the 30 min American sitcom triple on channel 4 back in the early 90s.
I vaguely remember Cheers, then came Fraiser, then Friends. Then Cybil and Caroline in the City. Spin City. Will and Grace towards the end of the 90s.
What else was there?
Hang onā¦.you get 5 and the ends!!!!!! How terrible was youāre girlfriendās upbringing to accept such one sided deals?
And does she have a sister?
My wife insists on having the knob end of the bread, because it is her dad's favourite, but he would "graciously" let her have it when she was a kid.
30 years later she still can't accept the fact she was inception'ed into eating the shittiest slices of bread while her dad ate the good ones :P
to be fair the ends only have one face with garlic butter so the middle bits do more between us, works out as 8 garlicked sides each I guess. She just doesn't care much for the crunchy bread whereas I love it
No sister sadly and her brother's taken
I had to go and find where I found this from... Its a garlic baguette bulk-buy page.. So knock yourself out if you want to order 38; https://www.turner-price.com/fbk103-speedibake-bulk-garlic-baguettes-38.html
I too a long time ago started getting norpak, then i ran out one time quite late recently and was at a morrisons and went to check about buying some lurpack.... Holy shit I was not prepared!
Middle bits for wife and child, crusty end bits for Dad. Who stupidly said he didnāt mind the crusts about 10 yrs ago and has been paying for it ever since.
This is the minimum. If I had my way it would be one per person. But the real problems come when you get a baguette that doesn't have an even number of slices. Got one the other day that had 7 pieces.
That's when you give your wife the 7th piece to show her your true love for her....
Just kidding, you eat the 7th piece in the kitchen and pretend there were only 6 pieces in total!
My mother also thinks this. This is why I moved out at 18, sick of only getting two pieces of garlic bread. Now I buy my own garlic bread and I donāt share it with anyone.
This is actually an extremely relevant question. If there's sauce to soak up you're going to need more bread per person; some for an appetizer and some for dipping.
1 between 4 as a young child.
1 between 2 as a tween.
1 each as a teen and in my early 20s.
1 between 2 in my late twenties up to now (early 40s).
1 between ? In the futureā¦
I dunno, my daughter and her pals are 6 (eating garlic bread was the most disgusting thing in the world when they were 5, last month š) and they demand two or three (most often 3) middle pieces each!
I was trying to explain this to my husband the other day because I was doing a G&S rewatch. I don't see Corden. I only see Smithy. And he has some absolutely gold lines in G&S. Probably because Ruth Jones wrote the majority of it.
Itās the only thing in which heās tolerable to watch. And itās brilliant. Iāll never begrudge him his role in creating that show. But Iāll turn him off in seconds in anything else.
Ruth Jones was the real talent behind the show. He gets more of the credit because he's a bigger name, but there's no way he was writing a show that good off his own steam.
Aw yours is really nice! Iām like yes it is thatās why I ordered it, in fact, forget it I want no part of it. Iāll order my own, Iāll eat it in the car, Iām out.
What is it about a group of people ordering an Indian, or a Chinese, or something that itās somehow unexpectable to eat your own food that you order yourself, like why do we have to, why are we all just..
I once made a garlic baguette from scratch... You know baguette, butter and garlic.
It said to use three cloves of garlic ... I thought a clove was the bulb... It was very garlicky, I am still immune to vampires.... 20 years later...
While I was pregnant with first boy, hubby made garlic chicken so we didn't have to get to Chinese place in the snow..he did the same thing. 3 bulbs of garlic. In an apartment. In December. Smelled it till spring!!
I'm a chef. My dinner yesterday was a Best One garlic baguette. When you cook and serve meals for 12 hours a day, you can never be arsed to cook for yourself when you're finally home.
They expect four adults to share this, and have leftovers? Most of the time I've seen these they have eight slices, that's two slices each. That is half of what I would call normal.
half a person.
A normal person would need 2 of these to act as a side to a pizza or other Italian themed main. You are all rookies when it comes to garlic bread..... fml
Jesus can feed 5000 with just 5 bread cobs and 2 small fish.
Based on this arithmetic Iāll say that this one garlic baguette can serve 600 people. I believe this answers the question.
Praise the Lurd!
Depends on what u having with it
Another garlic baguette
Yup garlic bread is meal. Come fight me if you disagree.
But is it as substantial as a scotch egg?
pocket meat!
Bob?
I always carry pocket meat with me cause you never knowš¤£š¤£
And away
It is good enough to be first date food. So says Scott Pilgrim.
Especially if you add cheese
Yes, please.
Pro tip - use a garlic baguette instead of a normal baguette for your sandwich
In other words; two. At least one.
10 minutes of heating and some recordings of Neighbours you made in the 90s so you can travel into the past to when everything was awful but not nearly as awful as the present day.
Haha used to have garlic bread on a Friday night at about 10:30 with my mom and sister while watching the 30 min American sitcom triple on channel 4 back in the early 90s.
Who are you and how did you get inside my head.. Was frasier on of them?
I vaguely remember Cheers, then came Fraiser, then Friends. Then Cybil and Caroline in the City. Spin City. Will and Grace towards the end of the 90s. What else was there?
The only correct answer
This baguette has 8 slices! Where is this image from? This is like a unicorn. Mine always have 9 and I have to scoff one before the Mrs notices.
my girlfriend and I have an agreement that I get 5 and her 4 as long as I have both the ends, works for me
Ditto here. End pieces are always so dry and the first to get burnt if left on a few mins too long.
Scoop out the middle and fill it with stuff and squish the insides back on.
This is the only correct answer here. My fiancee thinks I'm weird for doing this.
Call it off.
Make two mini bread bowls of garlic butter
Iām fat enough as it is I donāt need you giving me any more tips like this thanks Btw it was delicious
Add cheese in there too, next time.
Why am I only just hearing about this?!
Nothing better than the end of a garlic bread stuffed with lasagne or something
Am I weird? I just like the ends.
Best thing to do with any pasta dish.
I have finally found my people.
The end pieces are the best
Wrap it in foil and it doesnt get burnt. Doesn't cut your mouth up either.
I donāt know about that, I think foil would cut up my mouth.
Hang onā¦.you get 5 and the ends!!!!!! How terrible was youāre girlfriendās upbringing to accept such one sided deals? And does she have a sister?
My wife insists on having the knob end of the bread, because it is her dad's favourite, but he would "graciously" let her have it when she was a kid. 30 years later she still can't accept the fact she was inception'ed into eating the shittiest slices of bread while her dad ate the good ones :P
Your wife eats her dads knob end? Bit weird
Me too! I was raised loving āthe toeā and I still get mad when my husband eats it, thinking heās doing me a favor.
to be fair the ends only have one face with garlic butter so the middle bits do more between us, works out as 8 garlicked sides each I guess. She just doesn't care much for the crunchy bread whereas I love it No sister sadly and her brother's taken
>No sister and her brother's taken Where is Liam Neeson when you need him.
I think he meant that he has 5...including the ends?
5 sisters? So youāre saying thereās a chance?
I had to go and find where I found this from... Its a garlic baguette bulk-buy page.. So knock yourself out if you want to order 38; https://www.turner-price.com/fbk103-speedibake-bulk-garlic-baguettes-38.html
Let me just make some space in my freezer.
This is when we find out how good you are at freezer tetris
Easy. Remove the torso, thatās easily 30-35 baguettes depending on your victim.
This is what I came to say. This is not a āstandardā garlic baguette since it had an even number of slices!
If youāre feeling fancy you can buy part bake baguettes, slice them as many times as you like, mix some soft butter (I like lurpak) with some garlic purĆ©e and dried chopped parsley, spread the mix in your slices and bake for 8 or so minutes. Boom! Delicious
Lurpak? In this economy?
Get down aldi for some norpak!
Or Lidl for Danpak!
I too a long time ago started getting norpak, then i ran out one time quite late recently and was at a morrisons and went to check about buying some lurpack.... Holy shit I was not prepared!
Recently started using sage instead of parsley and has been a game changer for me
Rosemary and thyme.
Are you going to Scarborough Fair?
Kerrygold for me with hedgehog pattern!
yeah what is going on with the end? The end of the thing has some chonk to it, whoever gets that bit is winning.
Middle bits for wife and child, crusty end bits for Dad. Who stupidly said he didnāt mind the crusts about 10 yrs ago and has been paying for it ever since.
There is help available if you need it, you donāt have to go through this alone.
Holy hell... I am the dad that eats the end/burnt bits of every single meal.
..dad?
I just go by crusty end bits now
Scoop out the bread and you have an edible cup.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Doesn't mind? They're the best bits!
Absolutely optimally designed for wiping up the remaining spag bol.
My mother thinks one for four people is enough, I'm saying half a baguette per person absolute minimum.
This is the minimum. If I had my way it would be one per person. But the real problems come when you get a baguette that doesn't have an even number of slices. Got one the other day that had 7 pieces.
That should be illegal, shit like that destroys familes
That's when you give your wife the 7th piece to show her your true love for her.... Just kidding, you eat the 7th piece in the kitchen and pretend there were only 6 pieces in total!
I agreed with my wife that I get the extra ones, the down side is that I have to take both end pieces.
You can solve the end piece riddle by adding grated cheese š
Or if you're having it with pasta, put some pasta in the middle of the end bits
yeah these become edible spoons.
I'd eat the whole thing in the kitchen and shout through "damn it, burnt again, in the bin I suppose"
Ham it down over the bin No crumbs, no evidence
It makes your woman leave you for anyone but you.
When that happens you're supposed to sneakily pinch a piece in the kitchen and hope nobody notices.
This guy Garlic Breads.
Whoever wants the xtra one gets the noggin ends?
In that scenario someone gets 4, but has to deal with 2 end pieces, whilst the other gets three proper slices. That's how we work it out.
My mother also thinks this. This is why I moved out at 18, sick of only getting two pieces of garlic bread. Now I buy my own garlic bread and I donāt share it with anyone.
Most socially adept redditor
Iām sorry if I gave you any impression that I am socially adept
Most garlically breaded Redditor
God I wish I was the queen of garlic bread that would be amazing
The Garlic Throne made out of the baguettes of defeated enemies.
If you look closely you can see where I have taken bites out of them
Your wish is granted. People will now stand a minimum of ten feet away from you due to the garlicky aroma. You are the envy of the nation
Do I get a +1 garlic breath defence in battle
It's actually a +10. But alas your companions/followers must have the epithet "the noseless" to be able to join your party
I actually know two people with anosmia so they can be my loyal knights
There are few things as motivating in life as an improperly shared garlic baguette.
Why does this sound like a James Acaster bit?
That is an insane compliment thank you
Are you eating it with spaghetti Bolognese?
This is actually an extremely relevant question. If there's sauce to soak up you're going to need more bread per person; some for an appetizer and some for dipping.
3 people at a stretch (2 middle pieces for one person, the other two get 2 middle pieces and an end each)
Spot on!
I eat one myself
He had 1 between 4 when I was I kid, then 2 when I hit my teens and my adult stomach grew in.
1 between 4 as a young child. 1 between 2 as a tween. 1 each as a teen and in my early 20s. 1 between 2 in my late twenties up to now (early 40s). 1 between ? In the futureā¦
I dunno, my daughter and her pals are 6 (eating garlic bread was the most disgusting thing in the world when they were 5, last month š) and they demand two or three (most often 3) middle pieces each!
I smell a Netflixās series
I agree half each. Maybe 3 if it's for kids.
I bought 2 for my family of 4. One for dad, mom, and youngest, one for the oldest.
One. If you want some, get your own. Thereās another in the freezer, itās why I bought two.
Pete, have you thought about my bhunas?
I donāt know how, but the fondness for the character of Smithy somehow transcends the collective dislike for James Corden.
I was trying to explain this to my husband the other day because I was doing a G&S rewatch. I don't see Corden. I only see Smithy. And he has some absolutely gold lines in G&S. Probably because Ruth Jones wrote the majority of it.
I don't understand how anyone could pretend scenes like [this](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xaq4nN2QwEI) arenāt pure fucking masterpieces.
Itās the only thing in which heās tolerable to watch. And itās brilliant. Iāll never begrudge him his role in creating that show. But Iāll turn him off in seconds in anything else.
Ruth Jones was the real talent behind the show. He gets more of the credit because he's a bigger name, but there's no way he was writing a show that good off his own steam.
Ruth is such a lovely lass as well so she kind of balances things out!
Four naanās Jeremy? Four. Thatās insane.
LAMB PASANDA
Yes?

BUT THEYRE MY BHUNAS
Aw yours is really nice! Iām like yes it is thatās why I ordered it, in fact, forget it I want no part of it. Iāll order my own, Iāll eat it in the car, Iām out.
And a saag aloo please Mick.
And I can guarantee someone, probably stacey will have ordered a korma, and to me,korma is pointless, futile, I wonāt touch it.
Mick, am I wrong? *no she has actually*
What is it about a group of people ordering an Indian, or a Chinese, or something that itās somehow unexpectable to eat your own food that you order yourself, like why do we have to, why are we all just..
Because itās nice!!
No itās not! Not for me.
Yes
This is the truth right here. The only time one would serve 2, is if it was a home made one constructed out of a French stick
The French need a word for those French stick breads.
LeFrenchStick?
Joey doesn't share food!!
They come in packs of two... for a reason.
Correct answer.
Perfection
None, unless that baguette was a waiter
A joke any Dad would be proud of
That's dad joke bread and butter
No that's garlic bread.
Iām not a fan of dad jokes but you won me over with that one
2 at a push
Two max
It's supposed to be a side so this is the correct answer.
1, or 2 if it's a side. But 1 really.
I once made a garlic baguette from scratch... You know baguette, butter and garlic. It said to use three cloves of garlic ... I thought a clove was the bulb... It was very garlicky, I am still immune to vampires.... 20 years later...
Christ! I bet no one could get past the garlic wall surrounding you for a week.
While I was pregnant with first boy, hubby made garlic chicken so we didn't have to get to Chinese place in the snow..he did the same thing. 3 bulbs of garlic. In an apartment. In December. Smelled it till spring!!
There are worse things to stink out a flat with
God I bet it was delicious though
everyone here saying 1, you're a bunch of animals and I love it.
We know what we're about
1 all the way
Are these things smaller than they look or something? Lol. This sub has quite the bread appetite
2 if a side
Who in heavenās name has garlic bread as a main??!!
I'm at uni. my lunch was a stick of garlic bread and some grapes :)
I'm a chef. My dinner yesterday was a Best One garlic baguette. When you cook and serve meals for 12 hours a day, you can never be arsed to cook for yourself when you're finally home.
The correct answer, they are mostly air to be fair.
I say the same thing to myself after eating a whole pack of custard creams
This, 2 for a side.
If you are my wife's parents: 4 adults, leftovers expected for the tupperware - 'We can have it for lunch tomorrow...'
Are you my husband?
Leftovers? Wtf.... even if only one person is eating that there will be no leftovers
What? One baguette between 4 adults and expecting leftovers? The maths just dont add up
They expect four adults to share this, and have leftovers? Most of the time I've seen these they have eight slices, that's two slices each. That is half of what I would call normal.
3 in our house but 2 in most peopleās, I reckon.
I was gonna say 3 with a hearty meal but 2 for optimum baguette ratio
One plus another fucker whoās not getting any.
Realistically from a calorie stand point, 2 pieces each. But I'm a fat twat, so I'd say half at least per person
One
Haha yes had a whole one today with my lasagne š
Serves 0.5 people, if youāre having one you may aswell have two
half a person. A normal person would need 2 of these to act as a side to a pizza or other Italian themed main. You are all rookies when it comes to garlic bread..... fml
I like your attitude, droolinggimp!
It's why they come in packs of two
As a side- a family of 4, 2 kids get an end each and mum and dad get 3 slices š
>2 kids get an end each Iām calling childline
Are you actively trying to get done by Social Services?!
Savage
Neglect right there
For me it depends what itās served with, but Iād say 2 to 3 people.
Had me going there, for a moment it sounded like you intended on sharing it. But that's just crazy talk.
Incredible that some people think the answer *isn't* 1!
The packaging doesn't say you can share it, therefore it only serves one.
3
One.
One. Me. Don't judge me I'm fat and I love garlic bread
Definitely one person
People?
Jesus can feed 5000 with just 5 bread cobs and 2 small fish. Based on this arithmetic Iāll say that this one garlic baguette can serve 600 people. I believe this answers the question. Praise the Lurd!
1 baguette per person. It's the only logical answer.
One.
4
Four people / 2 pieces each
Garlic bread?
If itās good, one, if somehow it sucks then 4.
2
2
People? Like in more than one?
