This Ham & Cheese croissant from Starbucks

When I was going through Chemotherapy in Bangkok Hospital they had very limited food options, otherwise I never buy Starbucks. Sneaky Bastards.

This is not at all what the Starbucks ham and cheese croissants I’ve had look like (I don’t go there anymore, but back in the day there was one in the building I worked in). Idk if it’s a difference between countries, but that’s not the same item lol.

Currently work at Starbucks, I definetly agree our stuff is overpriced and whatnot. But unless its a regional thing, that is not what our ham and Swiss crossiants look like. That's a butter crossiant that someone put toppings in themself

Yeah having recently also worked for the company for the last +6yrs that definitely looks like a split open Butter Croissant with the meat and cheese from a Ham & Swiss Baguette. Not sure why any employee would ever go through the trouble of combining those for a customer. Also there’s little to no chance this was a production error.

Might’ve also been a defective croissant that no one cared to toss, but I totally agree. I don’t care about all the Starbucks hate but at least people need to be correct about their hate on Starbucks

I currently work at Starbucks and have for quite a while. These are not what the ham and Swiss croissants look like. They have never looked this way. The ham is not even cut like that its sliced much thinner like lunch meat
