How far is too far to react? On a scale of 1 to 10 where 1 is get DD to make some better muffins and 10 is burning down the school.

They also have raisins in them, adding insult to injury IMO.

I actually think they sound nice!

Cinnamon is amazing. Dunno what’s wrong with you. Got me craving a chai latte and a cinnamon swirl.

Angel2702 · 06/09/2021 17:42

That sounds delicious I don’t usually eat muffins but I love cinnamon and raisins in baked goods.

@EnglishGirlApproximately

Send them here cinnamon and raisin are a lovely combination 😋
I’d like one please 😃
AtomHeartMotherOfGod · 06/09/2021 17:44

Seriously... what kind of a weird world do we live in where cinnamon is this hideous?

It's fabulous in muffins and loads of stuff. It's not like it's as divisive as cloves or something Hmm

I have all the necessary certification to be able to dispose of them safely, ethically and environmentally-friendlyly..

(IMO if you can change safe into safely you can change environmentally-friendly into environmentally-friendlyly. Shoot me. After I have eaten disposed of the muffins of course.

I don't like dead fruits in my food. Angry

Cocopogo · 06/09/2021 17:46

Send her here I’ll eat them —all—
And you can have the pate sandwiches DS is making for lunch 🤢

Yanbu report to Ofsted!!!
Don’t fuck around ringing Ofstead. Log it with the police.

@GrumpyTerrier

Weird, I am right now attempting cinnamon and raison cupcakes for the first time. Perhaps this is a bad omen.
There is space here for yours as well Grin

Carrot, apple, cinnamon and raisin muffins…

God, they sound lush! I am envious.

My offspring only bring home monstrosities from Food Tech. If it’s anything even vaguely edible they share it with their mates.

NotMyCat · 06/09/2021 17:48

Cinnamon is delicious!

Hate to tell you this, but all food is dead...
KatherineJaneway · 06/09/2021 17:52

Muffins should always be savoury, cheese is preferable.

I once tried some coleslaw but some evil being had put raisins in it. I mean, who would do that?

BlackAmericanoNoSugar · 06/09/2021 17:55

Hate to tell you this, but all food is dead... Yogurt is live.

I used to make blueberry, oat and yoghurt muffins, you sprinkle in bicarb of soda and the mixture goes all frothy. Now they were muffins worth eating.

I love cinnamon AND raisins. I’m confused at the numbers who don’t. What’s wrong with you all?

And I’m now craving muffins.

iklboo · 06/09/2021 17:58

Cinnamon is gorgeous. Raisins are Satan's bogies.

KittenKong · 06/09/2021 18:01

I hate raisins and they hate me back. Bleugh, send my blood sugars all over the place.

Lostmarbles2021 · 06/09/2021 18:06

Dreadful. Utterly dreadful. Can’t believe the school allowed this to happen. What had the world come to? Sad

Sorrynotsorry2 · 06/09/2021 18:08

@BlackAmericanoNoSugar

Only one thing to do . Blow the school up

Antinerak · 06/09/2021 18:11

@TheVanguardSix

Obviously, you've not been introduced to the magic of coffee cake, OP. As an American, cinnamon-raisin muffins (with apple and carrot to boot!) get my vote. Everyone should try American-style coffee cake... none of this walnut sponge that you lot call 'coffee cake'. American coffee cake is the absolute bomb.
The last time I tried American coffee cake it was so sweet I think I felt my teeth crack.

I'll stick with devil bogey raisin cake!

NothingIsWrong · 06/09/2021 18:22

We had cheesy flapjacks one day home from school. Smelt like actual vomit and didn't taste any better

astoundedgoat · 06/09/2021 18:25

I'd make an anonymous report to OFSTED over those raisins alone. Cinnamon is fine though. Cinnamon, apple and brown sugar muffins could be pretty good. Very American.

They still call it Home Economics? < misses point of thread, gets coat>
It's called Home and life skills at our school.
