2. Blackpudding
3. Sausage rolls
4. Ripples

After that list, I think it's just as well you don't live in the UK as you'd have had a coronary by now!

What the punars is a Ripple?
Agree about the battered sausage though...but we make our own cornish pasties and sausage rolls to make do, but do miss the convenience of being able to pick one up cheaply for lunch

OMG Bob, you've never had a Galaxy Ripple? They are amazing, it's a bit like a flake coated in chocolate.
