People coming to dinner should bring something better than Banoffee pie

[SalvadorDalek]

DWs friends came to dinner today and they brought along the vilest pudding in the universe Bannoffee pie (sicklysweet shite)
Where as this horrible pud come from?
What is wrong with cheesecake or lemon meringue

Perhaps they love banoffee pie and can't stand cheesecake or lemon meringue? That's what makes life interesting, we don't all like the same things.

I love Banoffee pie.

YABU

i took a banoffee pie to my mums on boxing day

she likes it, so do I and so did everyone else

maybe you have no taste

i did check what she wanted me to bring though, that would seem polite.

Eh? YABAT.

Hmm I thought it was Scottish creation? Could be wrong though...

OP - It's better than a kick in the teeth!

Send it to me

My first thought at seeing your thread title was to ponder on what could possibly be better than Banoffee pie!

But yes, perhaps lemon meringue at a stretch.

Would expect anything in particular, though - just think it's generally kind if friends bring anything along with them.

Fuck off

RudeEnglishLady - I love your name.

wouldn't like any of those as a dessert personally, but each to their own. Some people wouldn't have bothered to bring anything - be grateful.

Would rather Banoffee than Lemon Meringue.

Was the Banoffee homemade? Not that it makes any difference in the larger scheme of things I suppose.

They should have brought an arctic roll or a vienetta at the very least

Banoffee is cats-bum-mouth sweet.

But I could spoon the base in to my hot and hungry gob so fast it would make the spincter on that cat cramp up in disbelief...

Not so keen on the topping.

I love all puddings. Banoffee would have been fine with me.

What would have pissed me off is a cheese board.

Have just googled, and I'm talking utter rubbish. It's an English creation.

If someone offered it to me right now though, I'd eat the whole thing. BFing makes me ravenous!

was it £1 from Iceland?

if not, be grateful, people like different things. personally i quite like banofee pie esp if homemade and loverly...

DH tried some for the first time the other day and was surprised at how delicious he found it.

As an aside, on 'Countrywise'recently, a publican claimed the recipe was invented in his pub.

in Suffolk I meant to put.

lol @ MadamDeathstare

If I invited people to my house for dinner, I would have already prepared a pudding. Do people leave courses blank for the guests to fill in?

You'd have been pissed off with a cheeseboard??????

Are you kidding?

I had the worlds best cheeseboard on Christmas Day - 8 different amazing cheeses plus home made quince jelly, chutney, dates and a selection of biscuits.

it was yummed up quicker than you could say "fark me, that's a tasty looking piece of Cropwell Bishop"

I think its nice!
