There are a surprising number of people who have indicated that they would use their baguette summoning powers to carry out assassinations. Here's me thinking "damn I could honestly help out in countries that are struggling, with this power" like the simpleton I am.

Can I summon the baguette out of the thin air inside someone's lungs? Cos that's basicly a free kill anyone wherever, whenever. U can rule the wold with that power.
Nope. Similar to DnD rules on create water, it has to be an empty void that you can see. Can't summon it inside someones lungs.
I contact every James Randi-type paranormal debunker that I can find and explain my power to them. I agree to all of their terms and agree to demonstrate it to them under whatever tightly controlled absolutely perfectly sterile conditions they want.
And I do it for them, claim my prize money, and continue on with my life.
My power is to summon a baguette, not unlimited baguettes, so I gotta make that one count and I think that's my best to get the most bang for my buck.
Or if I get to decide where exactly that baguette is summoned to, perhaps I will have it spring into existence occupying the same space as [REDACTED]'s brain stem. Having them out of the picture would greatly enrich my life.
Oh that's easy: sell it at an outrageous price in upscale North American restaurants as authentic "pain Francais".
.... I'd summon a few billion directly overlapping the physical space of a corrupt politician. If outdoors, in a tall column directly above, preferably several tons worth per capita.
Some choice people from this list I have would also receive a suborbital baguette infusion.
The downside is trying to deal with the stale fallout and subsequent mess the pummeled flesh and dough would leave after... Birds everywhere would go nuts.
ORBITAL BAGUETTE STRIKE!!
Could probably launch my own line of bagel chips (or bagel crisps), I'd never need to buy the main ingredient.
Slice it. Toast it. Add toppings. Endless tapas.
I say "this is for the birds"... and I give unlimited free bread to the birds outside.
The cats nestle close to their kittens now.
The lambs have laid down with the sheep.
You're cozy and warm in your bed, my dear.
Please don’t the fuck go blind by making moonshine with your daily staley.
Slightly stale? It does sounds like i can steam it back up and then use it to do other recipe. Make Garlic bread with it is great, or cube it then bake it until crunchy, then toss it into mushroom soup as topping.
Unless you read the prompt as the baguette will always remain slightly stale, so no matter how you attempt to freshen it up, it will still be slightly stale.
Burn the baguettes to boil water that spins a turbine that generates electricity.
Unless the baguettes sequester Carbon when they appear, this will eventually kill most humans.
Profits were made
I'm running on 4 hours sleep for the past 2-3 days so forgive me if this makes no sense. I'm going to see if I can find it in my enormous vault of bullshit but I remember seeing a tumblr post ages ago about humans in space. I love those things. Where humans are dealing with aliens and they're confused by us or vice versa. There was one of an engineer talking to an alien after first contact and they're discussing technology. It gets to what they use to go FTL and power their ships. Insanely complicated tech and then the alien finishes it with "and then it boils water which spins a turbine that generates electricity" and the engineer just starts screaming and smashing his head off of a bulkhead.
Edit: Well that was fucking easy. Still not sure this is the one I'm thinking of though.
Go to bed.
Apparently I just managed to beat you to it with my edit. Mwahahaha. Even sleep deprived my 70k memes cannot slow me down.
Kill me.
