Someone is not eating their share of the rolls on Oasis

[PCWalton1]

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. :)

I'm eating my share and then some. Especially when it comes to those Savoury Bites. Keep em coming.

[tiggeril]

I only eat one at dinner, I'm sorry everyone. :(

I would love to see that episode, wonder if I can find it online!

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.

It's hard to eat just one:eek:....and the butter is really good:D

[sealeggs]

Gotta love those savory bites. I will eat about 5 or 6 every dinner.

The crew gets a share of the rolls also

I love the sour dough. If they come by the table a second time, it's hard to say no. :o

The ones with cheese on the crust are my new favorite

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

YES! Mine too! :D:D

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

I always do my best to create a savory bite shortage.

Diabetic so don't eat my share but DH makes up for it! :D

Sounds more like the daily and not the weekly production.

When it is on TV it is normally on one of the Discovery channels.

Great story and I can tell you have a great respect for crew members:)

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

Are you sure it isn't per day ? What about sandwiches in the buffet and buns at breakfast. Rolls a could be a general term for everything except bread loafs.

Thumbs up for that one. After my last Oasis cruise the cheese one became my favorite

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.

Their machine can make 4000 rolls per hour
