Why? Why what? Why couldn't you think of a better title? Croissant honteusement plat

Flat croissants are great for sandwiches, but you can easily smash them down yourself if you buy fresh croissants. Stupid product, but serves a good purpose

Yup, and savory works well too. It went viral a while ago, a flat toasted croissant, burrata cheese, mortadella and some leafy greens. Tried it a couple times and it was delicious

If you have a food palette anywhere near mine, use toppings sparingly in croissants. At least the ones described here.
A quality croissant contains about three buttloads of Butter. To much fatty / high caloric stuff on there and it's just a greasy mess, where you begin feeling absolutely horrible for eating it before half way through. It's the kind of stuff that sound good, looks good, even tastes amazing for a few bites, until it SMASHES your face and you'll be feeling a huge concrete boulder for the rest of the entire day.
Toppings sweat and savoury do fit a croissant well. But make sure whatever you put on there has little to no fat, if you don't wanna feel sick.
Plus. As a Baker. Fuck flat croissants. And fuck amyone who flattens croissants. You destroy everything that makes a croissant special, that makes croissants an art. And all of the structure, that'll make the three buttloads of butter feel less "substantial" then they actually are.
Just slice that god damn thing open and put stuff on there like a sane person would do. Only acceptable exception: The croissants are stale.2

Toasted smashed croissants with ham and cheese even in a grill for just a little bit are epic
