 @jplebreton The idea that a kid would sell out for such a bland and deceptively named treat was the most unbelievable part of that book. If you think Turkish Delights is bland you have only had terrible Turkish Delight. That's very sad :-( @deirdrebeth @dalias i have had good turkish delight before, and yes, it can be quite good! if i encounter a random place with it in the wild it's still a crapshoot, of course, but that's true of several foods. @jplebreton@mastodon.social now referring to the bible as an Aslan kind of story  indeed. first time i tried turkish delight, i just figured that Edmund was looking for any excuse at all to betray his family. ;)   @jplebreton i think we should adopt this new name because i can’t stand the loukoum-turkish delight debate. 😂  This is how I know of Turkish Delight and it took me well into adulthood to ever try it, all the intervening time believing it was this delicious thing. I mean this with the utmost respect to the Turkish people, but Turkish Delight is deeply disappointing.  @jplebreton because naming it after an evangelical fever dream is better than naming it after an actual country? |
@jplebreton i am henceforth calling turkish delight 'narnia cubes' hahah
