This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Is the top burnt?
Yup but it's on purpose. This is called "tourteau fromager"
Are you supposed to eat the burnt layer ? Is it just to add flavor and can be scraped? I usually don't like burnt stuff, so I wonder how much it affects the taste
You're free to remove it but it also adds texture. The taste of the rest is lightly sweet so I guess it should be good even without it.
Badly, yes.
