The Irreverent Transfer Window Thread (& biscuits, bread and any other nonsense to pass the time)

[KentExile]

News of incoming transfers is drying up, as are Rovers/Venkys finances by all accounts.  Talk of biscuits, chocolate and other light hearted is more than welcome here, as is any transfer related stuff

I’ll get the ball running…

Chocolate - fridge or cupboard?

Bread - slice straight or diagonally?

 

[DeeCee]

For a different style of serving, 

Dark chocolate digestive with Primula cheese (out of a squirty tube) on top. 👍

1. Chocolate always in fridge. Cadbury's only

2. Diagonally, it's the best thing since sliced bread

Don't knock it till you've tried it.

[wilsdenrover]

Ok, one more…

Scone (rhymes with gone) or scone (rhymes with cone)?

Correct 😀👍

I cut bread straight unless it’s for beans on toast and then it’s diagonally.

Not that anyone asked… 😁

Cheese toasties topped with cheesey beans, the toastie maker cuts them diagonally, if you fancy something exotic to impress you friends, hot curry powder and butter can be added to beans (butter always should be added to beans regardless to make them more creamy)

Who remembers pop tarts and are they still a thing?

[KentExile]

Not seem them since the 90s

not looked for them either

[Upside Down]

Wow you guys are into some incredibly fucked things. 

For the record, the absolute best chocolate available is Whittakers.

You'll thank me later.

I have never consumed any cheese from a squirty tube and I never will

Quite prepared to die on that hill!

Cadbury's is now adulterated Mondelez crap and dramatically worse than when I was a kid. Cadbury's Creme Egg doesn't even have chocolate around it.

Although Cote d"or is also owned by Mondelez, it hasn't been bastardised like Cadbury's has so that is my go to when needing a choccy boost.

I find the high %age cocoa bars not as pleasant although living in Malta we can get the produce from Modica in Sicily which are exceptional- https://www.modicachocolate.com/
