Why can’t Dermot O’Leary eat Colin the Caterpillar cake?

[HangryBrickShark]

Just a random musing here, but just been watching This Morning and they were taste testing 'Colin The Caterpillar' cake against another caterpillar type cake to see which was the nicest.

Alison Hammond told Dermot O'Leary "come on tuck in..., oh you can't can you?"

But why can't Dermot eat Colin The Caterpillar cake?

Waitrose's Cecil the Caterpillar is the best, according to this article.

This!!!

Just making sure you know that this particular fable was completely made up by pp 😁

Gluten is usually replaced by stodge so less healthy

Think he’s given up chocolate for lent.

And generally less nice!

Do they?! Was it dry?

I’ve had it twice. One was very dry and had it as dessert with cream (lush), other not as dry so was fine with tea.

Future SIL is coeliac and we were celebrating his birthday, so was nice to try. I’m gluten intolerant as sets off my RA so avoid gluten as much as possible.

Yes indeed. The Children of Lir given quite a makeover there 😆. Or was it another legend ? Come back and explain @BeanQuisine

How do you pronounce Ailbhe? Is it Alba?

Gluten intolerance? But allergy? Dairy intolerance,? diabetic?
Given up chocolate, cake, sugar for Lent?
There could be lots of reasons

Alvuh, roughly. The second syllable is a schwa.
