I own that scone!/That scone is gone!: The Great Debate

[Mr. Carnelian]

It looks like butter. I think you guys just made some soft butter and tried to.get all fancy ass about it.

I like butter and jam on my biscuits too tho, no judgement.

I swear, if I told the people of Devonshire what outrageous slander was being said about their favourite foodstuff, they'd hunt down all of you one by one.

[Shauna]

Well OBVIOUSLY, because it's CLOTTED.

I'm just saying that heavy cream tastes amazing, so clotted cream is probably amazing too.

Oh right. Yeah. It just tastes like cream. Except it's spreadable. So if you like cream you're probably gonna like clotted cream.

Let them come.

[Shauna]

They are Brits so their response would be to say that you're wrong in a polite manner, and let most of their anger bubble inside.

[fire_of_avalon]

They can come to my house and we can trade passive aggressive comments while I serve them biscuits with butter and jelly.

I'll follow everything they say with "bless your heart." That'll teach em.

you'd all be dead because the Cornish would not accept a.) having their cream being assigned to Devon and b.) being referred to as Brits

clotted cream is not butter, it is god tier cream, nothing comes close

Naturally, clotted cream is also extremely well-loved in Cornwall.

I've had clotted cream in Devon more than in Cornwall, so that's why I've been talking about Devon, perhaps incorrectly.

Clotted cream IS god-tier.

[Shauna]

I've only ever had clotted cream in Glasgow, doesn't make it Glaswegian.

But apparently both areas claim it (according to the internet), and I like to imagine that there have been battles fought concerning this. But the largest producer currently is in Cornwall so I suppose at this stage, they'd win.

[Shorty]

"Clot" is too gross of a word to be involved with something as wonderful as cream. Are you people talking about cream cheese?

[fire_of_avalon]

Nah, look at the photo again. Its clearly a cousin of butter.

Hey I wrote you a song. Fred Astaire is probably rolling over in his grave. (To the tune of Putting on the Ritz)

Have you read the thread on scones?
"Do you pronounce this like gones or owns?"
Down the page in Quina's Kitchen
There's a bit of culinary bitching
Clot cream and jammed up berries
Sweet things that cause dental caries
Some may ask "What is it?"
If you ask me, it's a biscuiiiit


If you're mean and want to start trout
I know the place you should be about
Foodie fits...
Pissin' off the Brits
Calling their cuisine by a different name
Will earn the ire of each sir and dame
They'll lose their tits...
Pissin' off the Brits

Say their chocolate's not as good as Hershey's
You'll lose evyer one of their tender mercies (they'll get cursey!)

Tell them Yorkshire pudding is just bread
They'll soon be coming for your head

Pissin' off the Brits

They would consider it quite rude and feckless
To ask them "why do y'all serve beans at breakfast?" (you're on their deathlist!)

From Devonshire or Cornwall
They'll be prepared to fight and maul
You down to bits.

Pissin' off the Brits.

But it isn't just bread!! *shakes fist*

This is true. The last time I checked, bread was not made from flour, milk and eggs.

[Night Fury]

If anything, it's a pancake as they're pretty much the same recipe!
