PCWalton1 Posted August 7, 2015 #1 Share Posted August 7, 2015 (edited) Happy Friday, The other night I was watching the Oasis of the Seas episode of Extreme Cruise Ships (I have in saved on my DVR for moments of weakness :o) and they mentioned they baked around 28,000 rolls every week. Now if you take the passenger count down to an even 6,000 that is 4 and 2/3 rolls per person for the week. Come on, I eat that many the first 2 days. Who is not holding their own on the roll count? :p :D And I love the pumpkin seed rolls. :) Edited August 7, 2015 by PCWalton1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jameseric Posted August 7, 2015 #5 Share Posted August 7, 2015 I need to cruise with a less practical mind set, as this string proves. Afraid I regularly think of finite stomach capacity (which I do not care to stretch), and what are the delights that I want to delight in, to put there. Normal, I guess, so far. But then there's the matter of nutritional value of those delights, that seems to dominate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
truffles2 Posted August 7, 2015 #6 Share Posted August 7, 2015 It's hard to eat just one:eek:....and the butter is really good:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sealeggs Posted August 7, 2015 #7 Share Posted August 7, 2015 Gotta love those savory bites. I will eat about 5 or 6 every dinner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jules815 Posted August 7, 2015 #9 Share Posted August 7, 2015 I love the sour dough. If they come by the table a second time, it's hard to say no. :o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare John&LaLa Posted August 7, 2015 #10 Share Posted August 7, 2015 The ones with cheese on the crust are my new favorite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PCWalton1 Posted August 7, 2015 Author #11 Share Posted August 7, 2015 The crew gets a share of the rolls also They sometimes bake specifically for the crew. When we were on Radiance our filipina waiter told us in the mornings they bake Philippine pandasal (which is a roll I am fond of) and to request it at breakfast in MDR. I did and they were delicious. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PCWalton1 Posted August 7, 2015 Author #13 Share Posted August 7, 2015 The ones with cheese on the crust are my new favorite ooh, I forgot about those. Especially when they are hot so the butter melts. On our Rhapsody cruise to Hawaii we actually shifted out MTD reservations 10 minutes later as that was when the fresh hot rolls were ready. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Sunset Glow Posted August 7, 2015 #21 Share Posted August 7, 2015 Sorry, but I only eat one pumpkin seed roll at dinner and I only use half a pat of butter - the other half is wasted....I'm so embarrassed:o:o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rolls a could be a general term for everything except bread loafs. Edited August 7, 2015 by Kamloops50 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After my last Oasis cruise the cheese one became my favorite Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoyMouse Posted August 7, 2015 #24 Share Posted August 7, 2015 It's hard to eat just one:eek:....and the butter is really good:D It is a not so well known fact that butter tastes better at sea. Unfortunately my per diem roll consumption is offset by my obsession with the cranberry brioche served for breakfast in the WJ. It is also an excellent butter companion.
