One of life's really important questions

[Buenchico]

Which way round do you eat a jam doughnut?

Almost everyone I know insists that you should start with the 'jammy' side, to prevent the jam squirting out all over the place. Being one of life's rebels , (James Dean, eat ya' heart out baby!), I like to start at the other side, so that I get left with the lovely taste of the jam in my mouth when I've finished the doughnut.

I consider this question to be at least as important as the much-discussed one about which way the loo roll should hang, so what do you all think?

[naflharrison]

usually leave the jam to the end and eat all the boring bit round it first!! usually no jam left as its usually all down my chin and front!

[terambulan]

lick off sugar, eat jammy bit - rest to dog!

[Buenchico]

They say that practice makes perfect, Naflharrison, so that would seem to provide a good excuse for eating lots more jam doughnuts ;-)

[stompe]

Tongue Up the jam hole!=:D

[pips1]

Me too - always leave the jam till last - yummy.

Don't get me started on the toilet roll bit!!

[Ice.Maiden]

Mwhahaha!!!

I eat them as you come - whichever bit gets to my mouth first!

[naflharrison]

oh the top has to come of the jammy dodger and the minimum amount of biscuit must be left on the jam.... i really should just eat a bit of jam instead. now a choc bar is a different story, a twix or mars must be eaten in 3 stages very complex indeed!!!

[Buenchico]

I'll have to get myself a dog, Terambulan ;-)

Jammie didgers, Bez? Surely the only way to eat them is with great big bite? ;-)

[naflharrison]

like if i have something really boring to eat like sausage chips and beans the food has to be on the plate properly, sausage to the left chips to the right and the beans at the bottom. and i wonder why my hubby describes me as quirky!

[Buenchico]

I hope that Stompe isn''t trying to be vulgar, because I'm too pure, sweet and innocent to understand such things!

Pips1: I wouldn't dream of getting you started on a toilet roll. I'll leave that to your Saturday night curry ;-)

Evenin' Icey: So you're a 'take it as it comes' type then?

Come on, Naf. Describe the 'correct' way to eat a Mars bar!

[pastafreak]

I am like icey.....hate a big glob of jam tho......prefer it evenly distributed.

[20SilkCut]

nafhlharrison....yea mars bars have to be eaten in 3 complex ways....all the chocolate off the sides....the nougat bit next, leaving the chocolaty caramely bit last....yum....damm it ..would love one now!!! :-)

[naflharrison]

thankyou i am not alone in my wierd eating world!

[Buenchico]

Hiya Pasta: I could do without the doughnut itself, and just eat the jam straight from the jar!

20SC: I'll say good evening to you, even though you sound distinctly weird!

[Ice.Maiden]

I detect a bit of naughtiness there Chris! : )

Got to agree with naflharrison though - if food isn't set out properly on the plate, and just looks like a mish-mash of whatever's there, it looks unappetising. presentation counts...unless you're famished of course!!

[Buenchico]

'Naughty'? Moi? Never, Icey ;-)
