If we're getting competitive, I give you Yorkshire puddings.
Let's see those Southern softies beat that.
I'll call your Yorkshite pudding and raise you a Faggot
You won't find many who would swap a good Yorkshire pudding for a faggot. Good shout though, I haven't had a faggot in ages.
I'll give you that.

Eccles cakes (shouldn't they be protected by the EU btw) are glorious if made and baked correctly.
They were originally made from the scraps of pastry left from making other dishes for example pies so that nothing went to waste with dried fruit.
Licorice huh. Rubbish, not even a cake. Put that into your licorice pipe and smoke it.

Can't beat Gur Cake.
So called as it was often eaten by Dublin gurriers.
(Gurrier originally came the French for fighter, but has been a common Dublin word for a young rascal for a long time.)
Anyway, you need to try Gur Cake.

It looks a bit too sugary for me but I'll try anything once. Where do I get it?
I love these cake plugs with stories attached BTW.

Eccles are ace I agree, & I'm always right

The very last hand of the night goes to Dewi James, who finds ACES and talks Raymond O’Mahoney into calling his all-in preflop bet of 15k. “If I had AQ, I’d call!” says Dewi. Raymond calls holding pocket 66’s.

Haven't had one in probably 10 years...thank you for reminding me - they are indeed incred.
I wonder what other foods I love but have forgotten about over the years...

When the kids were little I used to steal the Farleys rusks.
I haven't had one in donkey's years. I might even buy myself a packet.

Long story, short. . .
Farleys bought by Heinz mid 90's. Rebranded as Heinz Farleys Rusks. Sales nose dived in UK. Relaunched without the Heinz in UK, Heinz version sold in rest of the world.

Shit post Nakor, such a clown.
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?
