Be sure to follow the rule before you head out.
Rule: You must post before you leave.
They're too sweet by themselves, you have to eat them wrapped between two plain butter biscuits.
It’s pretty meh.
They're pretty mid as far as cady goes.
I love Turkish delight. Rose flavor is my favorite
I've seen so many comments like the original tweet and i don't get it. At worst Turkish delight is its perfectly fine. If I were an English child in 1943 it would probably blow my mind
Plus the Turkish delight in the book was conjured by magic so it was probably the best Turkish delight possible
In Canada we have a candy bar called Big Turk that is produced by Nestle. It’s sold in every corner store, every gas station. It’s everywhere. I have never in my life ever seen someone purchase one, let alone eat one. No idea what it tastes like. I’ve never seen one out of the wrapper in real life, but the pictures sure do look interesting.
I grew up in Canada and never really had it, now that I've lived in the US for so long, I crave it
They're good. They aren't really that related to Turkish Delight because it tastes like a chocolate covered gummy.
Even within Turkey you have to get Turkish delight from specific places otherwise it is shite. I can't imagine you would be able to find anything worthwhile abroad.
I've had a real one from a Turkish place called Gülloglö, which no longer exists, and it was incredible. It was like a block of rose water, covered in powdered sugar, and biting into it was a floral, sugary, explosion, especially combined with their harsh, dark, Turkish tea -- unbelievable.
I loved that place, and no idea how they went under.
Can we at leat agree that the White Witch fed Edmund drugged candy and was suffering from diminished capacity regarding the behavior for which he was convicted?
It was a bullshit charge.
People seriously blame Edmund for how he acted? Knowing he was like, what, 10? 11, maybe? 🤔
What I remember in the original movie I had seen (not the more recent ones with CGI but an animated one about the same age as me), they didn't even visually represent the Turkish Delight accurately. I remember them having what looked like fudge or a brownie (possibly baklava). They're actually basically Dots; those nasty gummy candies that I only ever see sold at movie theaters.

... I like dots.
