I love it when everyone else gets botlocked! Buahaha! FIRST!
Posted by: Bethie | April 30, 2007 at 02:04 PM
Well Well, that explains why my Cadbury eggs were so difficult to fry. Hmph.
Posted by: baligurl | April 30, 2007 at 02:06 PM
Mmmmm, Shepherd's pie. Baby carrots. Italian food of any kind. I already love this thread!

So much for the hamburger.

So no divinity without God in it?
No Jordan Almonds without dirt in it?

Posted by: casey | April 30, 2007 at 02:18 PM

Posted by: Siouxie | April 30, 2007 at 02:18 PM
Siouxie I LOLed!!!
Posted by: casey | April 30, 2007 at 02:20 PM
I guess Spotted Dick is off the menu too.
Posted by: artchick | April 30, 2007 at 02:23 PM
And Toad in the Hole (sausages in pastry, for those of you who wondered)
Posted by: artchick | April 30, 2007 at 02:24 PM
Depends, casey, on the ingredients used.
Posted by: Clean Hands | April 30, 2007 at 02:25 PM
And Chicken Ala King. (this is kinda fun!)
Posted by: artchick | April 30, 2007 at 02:26 PM
Then what the hell are in POP-TARTS ?
Posted by: Bern Wood | April 30, 2007 at 02:26 PM
I'm certainly disappointed that baby food...isn't.
Posted by: baligurl | April 30, 2007 at 02:29 PM
Here's hoping Coca Cola goes back their very first formula...
Posted by: the world has a fivver | April 30, 2007 at 02:29 PM
Anybody remember the Dragon sausages that had to be renamed because they didn't contain actual dragon?
Posted by: artchick | April 30, 2007 at 02:31 PM
Cocktails????
Posted by: casey | April 30, 2007 at 02:34 PM
Yum! I love Toad in the Hole! Spotted Dick, though, I've had about enough of.

I can't believe I'm the first one in THIS bunch to say ...

**SNORK** @ casey!
(And, to be clear, for the easily-confused out there, I AM talking about the pudding... sheesh.)

I'm suddenly highly disappointed in my mother's "Million Dollar Torte."

Pigs-in-a-blanket!
One time, at band camp, I walked into a room that for some reason had a sock hanging off the doorknob and actually witnessed pigs-in-a-blanket. Eeeeeewwww!
Posted by: casey | April 30, 2007 at 02:36 PM

I just hope I still get my Christmas goose!

"Waiter, about this hot dog...."
And of course, this is a problem.

Baked Alaska?
Posted by: pinky | April 30, 2007 at 02:51 PM
No ham in my hamburger ... no dog in my hot dog.
And these chicken nuggets are WAY too big.
Posted by: Cheryl (of the blogging Cheryls) | April 30, 2007 at 02:51 PM
LOL, Cheryl!
Posted by: baligurl | April 30, 2007 at 02:52 PM
(Weird psychic experience with Annie ... we're both thinking of weiners at the same time.)
Posted by: Cheryl (of the blogging Cheryls) | April 30, 2007 at 02:53 PM
I suppose Berliner's could still be cream filled, but . . . .
Posted by: pinky | April 30, 2007 at 02:54 PM
Cheryl - yes, weird, but not unusual for this place.
Posted by: Annie Where-but-here | April 30, 2007 at 02:54 PM
Chicken pot pie??
Posted by: Siouxie | April 30, 2007 at 02:55 PM
I wonder what these guys expect at a bar.
Screwdriver, inspector?

Of course Poppycock is likely to be disappointing.

Hey, it's the filling alternative to gumballs!
Posted by: Clean Hands | April 30, 2007 at 02:57 PM
I don't think anyone would eat haggis if they had to list the ingredients, although blood pudding is aptly named and people still eat it.
Posted by: Bãrön vønKlyff | April 30, 2007 at 03:01 PM
um...no thanks, Baron.
Posted by: Siouxie | April 30, 2007 at 03:04 PM
Baron - haggis isn't an issue because most Scots can't read.
Posted by: Annie Where-but-here | April 30, 2007 at 03:07 PM
I really hope that this doesn't spread to a bar near me...
I would hate to lose my '$3x on the beach' or 'slow comfortable screw.'
Posted by: Bãrön vønKlyff | April 30, 2007 at 03:07 PM
CH - ;)
*hopes desperately that NT doesn't kill Annie after reading the post about non-reading Scots*
Now the "slow comfortable screw" is a new one on me, Bãrön. Why don't you show me how it's done?
Posted by: DeskDiva | April 30, 2007 at 03:16 PM
Baron, what about this one?? kinda HOT too!
Posted by: Siouxie | April 30, 2007 at 03:19 PM
Egad...sounds like beavertails are finished as well...
Posted by: AFKAT | April 30, 2007 at 03:22 PM
DD, there are many ways to do the Slow Comfortable Screw...

Foods that now cause confusion:
Chicken fried steak
Rocky Mountain Oysters
Popcorn shrimp
Posted by: Bethie | April 30, 2007 at 03:58 PM
The "toad in the hole " that I have a recipe for is an egg fried in the center of a piece of toast - it has the hole. I'm not sure why an egg would be called a toad, but I'm not really that curious....

Pigs in a blanket
Gumbo (emphasis on gum)
Corn dogs
Funnel cakes
devils food cake
angel food cake
eggs Benedict
Well, pointless as the whole practice is....there's plenty of foods out there to keep them busy. At least if they are busy, they aren't messing up anything else (we hope).
Posted by: Noob | April 30, 2007 at 05:07 PM
This just makes me think of ...
Crunchy frog!

Maybe someone can fix that link for easy clickage.

SOMEbody's gotta do it:
Inspector Praline: Mr Milton? You are sole proprietor and owner of the Whizzo Chocolate Company?
Milton: I am.
Praline: Superintendent Parrot and I are from the hygiene squad. We want to have a word with you about your box of chocolates entitled The Whizzo Quality Assortment.
Milton: Ah, yes.
Praline: (producing box of chocolates) If I may begin at the beginning. First there is the cherry fondue. This is extremely nasty, but we can't prosecute you for that.
Milton: Agreed.
Praline: Next we have number four, 'crunchy frog'.
Milton: Ah, yes.
Praline: Am I right in thinking there's a real frog in here?
Milton: Yes. A little one.
Praline: What sort of frog?
Milton: A dead frog.
Praline: Is it cooked?
Milton: No.
Praline: What, a raw frog?
(Superintendent Parrot looks increasingly queasy.)
Milton: We use only the finest baby frogs, dew-picked and flown from Iraq, cleansed in finest quality spring water, lightly killed, and then sealed in a succulent Swiss quintuple smooth treble cream milk chocolate envelope and lovingly frosted with glucose.
Praline: That's as may be, it's still a frog.
Milton: What else?
Praline: Well, don't you even take the bones out?
Milton: If we took the bones out it wouldn't be crunchy, would it?
Praline: Superintendent Parrot ate one of those.
Parrot: Excuse me a moment. (exits hurriedly)
Milton: It says 'crunchy frog' quite clearly.
Praline: Well, the superintendent thought it was an almond whirl. People won't expect there to be a frog in there. They're bound to think it's some form of mock frog.
Milton: (insulted) Mock frog? We use no artificial preservatives or additives of any kind!
Praline: Nevertheless, I must warn you that in future you should delete the words 'crunchy frog', and replace them with the legend 'crunchy raw unboned real dead frog', if you want to avoid prosecution.
Milton: What about our sales?
Praline: I'm not interested in your sales, I have to protect the general public. Now how about this one. (superintendent enters) It was number five, wasn't it? (superintendent nods) Number five, ram's bladder cup. (exit superintendent) What kind of confection is this?
Milton: We use choicest juicy chunks of fresh Cornish ram's bladder, emptied, steamed, flavoured with sesame seeds, whipped into a fondue, and garnished with lark's vomit.
Praline: Lark's vomit?
Milton: Correct.
Praline: Well it don't say nothing about that here.
Milton: Oh yes it does, on the bottom of the box, after monosodium glutamate.
Praline: (looking) Well I hardly think this is good enough. I think it would be more appropriate if the box bore a large red label warning lark's vomit.
Milton: Our sales would plummet.
Praline: Well why don't you move into more conventional areas of confectionery, like praline or lime cream, a very popular flavour I'm led to understand. (superintendent enters) I mean look at this one, 'cockroach cluster', (superintendent exits) 'anthrax ripple'. What's this one, 'spring surprise'?
Milton: Ah, now, that's our speciality - covered with darkest creamy chocolate. When you pop it in your mouth steel bolts spring out and plunge straight through both cheeks.
Praline: Well where's the pleasure in that? If people place a nice chocky in their mouth, they don't want their cheeks pierced. In any case this is an inadequate description of the sweetmeat. I shall have to ask you to accompany me to the station.
