Is salad cream an underrated condiment?

A

Can't say I'm up for cheese and jam. I can just about see how something like Philadelphia might be ok with jam but if you're talking mature cheddar (or please no, stilton) with strawberry conserve then yuck yuck yuck!!

Can't beat a bit of Wendsleydale with ur Christmas Cake

P

Cheese with Christmas cake? Cheese with mince pies? Gross!

A

Cheese and apple, and cheese and fruit cake are both great combinations.

A

It's midnight and because of this thread, I'm really hungry!!

P

Ah, morning tea...time for a lamington and cuppa.

A

Buns? What type of buns?

P

Chicken and BBQ sauce for me please.

A

Oooooohh! I know about Lamingtons!! I watched an episode of 'Home & Away' last week and they were talking about having a 'Lamington Drive' and I was so curious I looked up Lamingtons on Wikipedia!!! Small square cakes covered in chocolate (or choc icing) and dessicated coconut, right??

A

They sound yummy. A bun will always be a small iced cake in my mind

T

Meat feast for me.. and some chicken strips please

A

If everyone has garlic bread it's ok (i.e. everyone then had halitosis)

P

Yes! Well done Ann...apart from the watching Home and Away bit. My mother-in-law makes the BEST lamingtons in the world - huge chunky ones, with thick chocolate and such fluffy sponge cake. Bliss. A meal in itself.

There is a Scottish lass in my lab and one day I had a lamington for morning tea - she looked at me like I was about to eat a cowpat and said "what is that????". Silence in the tea room. My supervisor just said "someone educate that girl". Hilarious. None of us new lamingtons were so Aussie.

T

Stuffed crust all the way.. all the better for dunking in the BBQ sauce

P

I love the practical-thinking there, Ann. Garlic bread is essential.

Bugger, now I am starving.
