Silly picture of the Week: Big Croissants

Remember this blog does have a lighter side!
This is what the Spar on the University of Birmingham’s campus think a ‘large croissant’ is, and would like to charge us poor students 45p ($1) for:
Maybe for an insect that’s a large croissant… another example of rip-off Britain, or just rip-off campus. Everywhere on campus is really expensive; for example, a cruddy (pretty much stale) sandwich costs around £2 ($4) when you could go to subway for just £3 (or £1.99 for the sub of the day.) Sometimes I wonder why my credit card isn’t maxed out yet.
For reference, the milk carton next to the croissants is a 500ml carton (just under a pint,) for you Americans it’s just a tiny bit bigger than your ordinary can of Pepsi.
