ljs Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 First, thank you Bang for inspiring this thread.... ok, so it was kindly brought up that Christmas pudding is a popular treat during the holidays and I'm hungry. So I thought it would be fun for people to post their favorite "Christmas, winter solstice, Hanukah, Kwanza, new year, December, wintery." treat... For me, I LOVE my grandma's peanut brittle...that and the little candied pretzels. PS...only happy fun people need apply..this is about food, which should make us all smile!

rincewind Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 Why's it gotta be 'Christmas' pudding? You christians are always trying to push your values on us... especially when it comes to dairy products. :mad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roqnap1 Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 If you don't eat your meat, you can't have any pudding. How can you have any pudding if you don't eat your meat? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Predicto Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 why is it called bark? i dont really care because just the flavor alone makes me want to eat a pound of it. but what is it? Because it looks like broken pieces of tree bark, I guess. Chocolate is melted into a long flat sheet, things are mixed in, then it is cooled and broken into irregular pieces. http://www.pecanturtles.com/productpics/bigpics/bark.jpg http://www.mrchocolate.com/product_images/JTorres_Bark_Dark_med.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigMike619 Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 we have that down here but I never knew it was called bark. I was thinking it was going to look like Sequoia bark or something like that. good stuff though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
