I had some pineapple lumps while I was in NZ.
I'm glad they don't sell them over here or else I'd spend way too much money on them and become fat from eating them.

They are tasty.

[Penderic]

Sounds good. Best fresh. Eat em before they go bad.

I like candy with style!!!  Shoulda married a pastry cook!


Trouble is, its too nice to look at, to eat.

I didnt know that Australia had camels too.

The candied eyeballs are devine!

[Waterbottle]

Ewwwwww, not for me

[Tom]

Figure that's what you're talking about.

[Kiwi_Roy]

We're talking "meat pies"....pasties?

A dozen different varieties
Steak, Steak & Mushroom, Steak & Kidney, Potatoe Top and lot's more
Available at most corner stores and service stations
It's usual to eat them straight out of the bag, they don't fall apart in a mushy mess like some I could mention

Don't forget Peanut slabs and Jafas

[Muzz]

Reading this I had to run and haul my bag of Pineapple Lumps out and have two.  You can NEVER have only one!

Darn it, I am going to have a third. They sure are moorish.

Ha ha, who could forget the famous Dressed pie?
Mince topped with mashed potatoe and dressed with a slice of beetroot!
Oh and the sound of Jafas rolling down the wooden stairs of the Lido picture theatre during the Saturday afternoon matinee was priceless.
Jeez time warp back to 60's NZ eh.
Cheers Guzzler.

And then watch the searchlights from the ushers as they scanned the darkened skies for the culprit.

The candied eyeballs are devine!

Brought over by Afghani traders way back, some are even
sold back to the  Middle East as we have purer blood lines
than they have. We have so many they're a pest animal.

Ah Pies! Personally I'm a fan of Jimmies pies. "World famous" in the South Island, and one shop in Canada)

Then there is this sort of thing; (Have a look)

Had Fish and chips for tea a couple of nights ago. It was a bit of a treat for me these days and I hadn't had any for a long time. Fresh Southern Blue Cod (yum) and battered muscles (also yum).
 

[johnr]

Don't forget Peanut slabs and Jafas

Ah yes both of those are beyond yummy. Peanut slabs are made by our very own Whittakers Chocolate factory , Best chocolate to be had!  I hadn't realised that the Jaffa was an indigenous critter though.

[oldbike54]

 Dangit , the last of the Pineapple Lumps disappeared yesterday  My two favorite non-motorbike things are food and humor based knowledge , both well addressed .  Thanks John
