If the Napoleonic wars had been a pie fight, what flavor would the French throw? |
Eumelus | 07 Feb 2017 6:02 p.m. PST |
Creme Brulee (sorry, don't know how to do the accents) |

Would Germans throw bismarcks? |

The British would throw plum pudding, which is neither plum nor pudding…and far harder than Creme Brulee or bismarcks. |

The Italians would lob Tiramisu. |

"If the Napoleonic wars had been a pie fight…" The crazy people would have gone bananas (cream or meringue…) |

The Prussians would surely have thrown Berliners, i.e. doughnuts? – which like plum pudding contain neither dough nor nuts. |

The British would naturally throw pies of Crème Anglaise (or as we call it, custard). |

Beg to report, 'Plum Pudding'- is absolutely a pudding, and 'plum' long ago became a generic term for various forms of dried fruit. But a 9-pdr Plum duff would indeed have been a projectile to be feared. It is not, however, 'a pie.' |

Some gooey pastry or other with an unpronounceable name. |

The French would certainly win, if they used their entire armory. What nation could reply to "Pets des Soeurs" or "Crottin"? And that's just the beginning of the nastiness. . . |

The British would throw two pies on a stick – the Wigan kebab. |

Americans, of course, would throw apple pies ("road apples," that is, otherwise known as horse droppings). |

Oh yes,we've got cow pies! |

Everything is fun and games until the Swedes show up with a horror-inducing fish dish. |

I'd rather get a hákarl in the face than a casu marzu! |
