lol! I dunno some strange dishes there. aaaarrrgh!
But yes speaking of fashion DT, yes Im afraid some stuff does go out of fashion and jeez there isnt any regrets from me. Another gem from the past that we dont see any more, yet we used to have it when we were young or youngish...Tapioca. Anyone remember that bowl of particular misery? A dessert it was, there was another one too called Sago if my memory serves me well. I cant remember now what the difference between the two was but Im glad to confine those non-gems into the annals of culinary history.
I was watching a western movie on Film 4 recently and knock me down with a feather but the guys in a travelling sideshow, really spies for the Confederacy, started singing a song called Tapioca...I couldnt belive it. I thought it was some henius plot by HMG to torture me through the airways. Gawd Im starting to get nightmares...if I start dreaming about Tapioca Im doooomed!
My daughter wouldnt touch any of this kind of stuff with a bargepole...come to think of it neither would I !
Nowadays dessert wise everyone is on yogurts of various refinement.
The song from the movie went like this
" Tapioca, Tapioca, all we ever got was Tapioca!"
there we are, my mother has a lot to answer for !!
