The French language is notoriously difficult for Brits to master, and it turns out we've been struggling with one of the most iconic French words of all time; 'croissant'
Croissants those buttery, flaky, crescent-shaped pastries are a favourite everywhere. Enjoyed warm with lashings of butter and jam, filled to the brim with chocolate, or topped with almonds; not to mention the hearty ham and cheese versions or simply plain.
For those innocently saying 'cross-aunt' or even attempting a more continental 'cross-son', it's time for a reality check both miss the mark. If you pride yourself on not only pronouncing words correctly but also indulging responsibly, you'll be gobsmacked to learn that your technique for eating McVitie's Jaffa Cakes might have been amiss all these years.
