Baklava
Layers of sugar and butter and pastry that melt in the mouth. And they're only tiny so you end up eating loads of them before you know it nomnomnom

Also, the first Greggs sausage roll when I've been out of the UK for months on end. Always have to buy the 3 pack and always end up feeling like a sausage roll once I'm part way through the third one.

Worst thing? Mussels - they smell so nice but then they look like fannies and their evil little beards tickle my tonuge when I try to eat them...cringe. As my boyfriend pointed out, how can the Belgians call a bowl of fannies and a bucket servced with chips "cuisine"?

a) if that's what your cunt looks like then you really need to see a doctor
b) the beards are taken off before they're cooked
c) I'm going to write "cunt" again because it starts with the letter "c"

We don't.
We just call it 'food'.

The beards tickle your tongue?
Fucking hell. I suppose the shells get stuck in your teeth too?

Slightly tangential joke from my french pal Thierry:
there are 3 types of fondue:
1) Fondue Bourguignonne where you sit around a pan of heated oil and dip pieces of meat and veg in it.
2) Fondue Suisse/Jura where you sit around a pan of heated cheese (Gruyere) with white wine, garlic and nutmeg, dipping pieces of bread in it.
3) Fondue Belge where you sit around a bowl of mashed potatoes and dip chips in it.
