Yes. Yes you are. It's like hot cake with sauce, what's not to like?!

Ah that explains why I also dislike fruit mince pies then

[-] Seagoon_@aussie.zone 3 points 1 week ago

i hate bought mince pies, cheap nasty pastry, skimps on filling and no brandy

[-] RustyRaven@aussie.zone 3 points 1 week ago

I'm with you on that one, those things can get in the bin.

[-] Eagle@aussie.zone 4 points 1 week ago

I have to agree. But then again, there are some bad puddings out there.

[-] RustyRaven@aussie.zone 3 points 1 week ago

That is true. A good fruit pudding is very expensive to make, so it's common for ingredients to be skimped on. Plus some have a wierd taste/texture - I think it's too much date or fig or something like that, it reminds me a lot of the vegan "treats" that some people seem to love but I find revolting.

The ones that have too much orange peel that makes it bitter. Can be fixed with more custard though.
