Ooh, I think there was something, sure enough. What was it, again?

Was it the launch of Freedom Scones? Or did I just invent those last

What is a scone, really? (Serious TV d00d voice.)

WP:

===
A scone (/sk?n/ or /sko?n/) is a baked good, usually made of either
wheat or oatmeal with baking powder as a leavening agent, and baked on
sheet pans. A scone is often slightly sweetened and occasionally
glazed with egg wash.
===

Yep. I am familiar with plain, cheez, fruit (sultanas or cherries),
herb, etc, versions. But not chocolate. For pitys sake, Eduardo!

Omitting either the coconut or the walnut would be fine. Personally I
could do without the chocolate, but I know that many cannot.

But combining all three? Fagitodivergent. :|

If a pizza can be a vegetable and a jaffa biscuit can be a cake (or is
it vice versa?) both for tax reasons, then Im pretty sure a scone can be
whatever you want it to be.

Id not thank you for these, even though I like coconut, walnut (within
reason) and scones. Agreed that putting the chocolate into the mix
would be a very bad idea.

They can be presented in a variety of sizes, styles and flavours and
still be perfectly delicious scones. Look at potato scones, drop
scones, Scotch scones, cherry scones, the big pan-sized scones that
are cut into segments, cheez scones, herb scones, fruit scones (ie
sultanas) - a big variety.

I was going to put "oven bottom scones" as the top tier there, but on
checking I find that they are known as "oven bottom muffins". They
are from Lancashire, AIUI, and available from supermarkets, and my mum
really, really liked them.

NOTE: A "drop scone" is aka a Scotch pancaek, so theres a h*ck of a
lot of variety!

I think its more or less established now that this is all a simulation.
We are all Sims, and unfortunately the sim is being run by a 13 year old

There is a theory that if we are in a simulation we should create as
much unique "content" as possible, to make it harder and harder, and
more and more expensive, to render.

That would be one way to bugger it. :)

And then theres the deconstructed desserts that M&S (and no doubt
others) sell in a glass or a plastic pot.

They kind of remind me of that 1980s Wqlsh comedy character who gave
bedsit cooking tips. Like eating frozen chips.

Oh.

Dee Ee.

It is always HAPPENING AGAIN.

Like Gu:? Those things where you get 0.5g of dessert in a 200g glass
jar for about 4 quid?

I mean the jars are pretty solid. But even so.

Had that been today there would now be 2 million influencees (well its a

The deconstructed dessert fad, where you serve up all the individual
bits of (say) a lemon meringue pie.

Heres a deconstructed cake in a jar from Marks and Spencer.
Deconstructed Colin the Caterpillar cake. They also did deconstructed
trillionaires shortbread and raspberry ripple cake.

350 calories the half jar (and how you share a jar of cake is not
explained anywhere!)

Very similar style of thing, and the telescope effect of time makes me
