Ever try Indian tobacco, Xanny? Wish I knew the scientific name. *sigh* Oh well, as a kid, I tried it, not too bad, but it did have a different flavour.

No, no, no. LOL Silly Oggster.

Graham crackers are American and are called that because at first they were made of graham flour. They were meant to be *shudders* healthy, but they actually taste good, even to a four year old.

I suggest you try our local foodstuff, this is it Image. Im sure Schu believed her pastie to be authentic but its not called a cornish pastie for nothing!

Yeah, aren't they fun? And the ones that grow upwards like an astropop, unlike the hemi brain celosias. :D
