ask them what kind of cakes they bring in on their birthday
i am hugely hacked off today because the girl whose birthday it is has brought homemade cakes instead of mr kipling ones that i can steal. homemade cakes with raisins and cherries in. wtf. that is just inhumane.

roar.

I refuse to eat anything homemade.
Except if it's been made by someone I know really well. Otherwise it's just manky.

And yet you'll trust anything you buy from a supermarket.

i worked with someone who wouldn't
eat the blackberries that grew in her garden because 'it was gross'. Not sure what she thought they did with them in supermarkets

You'd think that 5 million years of hunter-gathering would have had some ill effects by now, but I guess not.

(The Luggage is haunted..., Tue 26 Jul 2011, 11:10, Reply)

it's because you know factories have people in gloves etc
kitchens don't. my friend made me flapjacks at school once and there was a giant hair from her massive black poodle in it.

THIS is why you have to know someone well to eat their food. although berk is an exception, her cakes looked awesome.

Tangfastics are wonderful, but far too sickly.

The best Haribo packs are their liquorice ones
apart from the brown ones. They ming.

Liquorice mings, possibly more than any other sweet.

Liquorice rocks.
How many other sweets can act as both an aphrodisiac and a laxative?

I made a tripple berry cake that is delicious! Full of butter and cinammon.

That sounds fantastic
I mean the fruit cake which is ridiculously heavy on the stomach, full of cherries and nuts, etc. The cheap shit.

The one they serve on weddings? I don't like it either. Mine, on the other hand, is just like a massive muffin.

It's to keep the wedding cake up, as normal sponge isn't dense enough to hold up the upper layers
...I think.

Yes, that's what I've been told
why not to use metallic structures to keep it in place, like we do in the rest of Europe, is something that I don't know.
