We both forgot the half litre of German lager that accompanies it.

Sort of here: "They make great open spreads if you eat cold meats and wurst
etc. Let's face that's what they are eaten with. "

Why do Marxists only drink herbal tea? Because propper tea is theft.

and senf!

Incidentally I have never had what Erilar describes as "paste" bread in
France. The only places where in general bread meets this description
are UK and the USA. Some Dutch rolls are fairly near to being paste
bread, but there is plenty of real bakers bread available in NL, so
there is no need to eat it.

I was reading the obituary column in the paper the other day and it said
Mars Bar,
packet of Rolos, Double decker.... then I realised that in fact I was
reading the a bit chewy column.

You are generalizing. Coriander and similar herbs are typical only for
parts of Southern Germany and Bavaria. The rest of the country doesn't
use these spices so much, least of all in bread.
