So what's the difference between German Shepherd Pie and Australian Shepherd Pie? Is the Australian one more brain food? Or do policemen typically eat the German Shepherd Pie on break?

The German Shepherd Pie comes with poodle-strudel for dessert.

GreenDragon Jun 14th, 2005 06:37 AM

Isn't Poodle Strudel a typically Austrian dish, served after the opera? I seem to recall it was quite popular after Mozart comedies...

I don't even want to know how humanely and how the main ingredient in Spotted Dick is, um, handled.

GreenDragon Jun 14th, 2005 06:49 AM

What do they do to it to get it spotted?

PS -- the first time I visited England, I had never heard of Spotted Dick. My DH and I were in the Safeway, giggling at a lot of things we never see in the States. We were jetlagged and giddy. We came across a box of Spotted Dick, and burst out laughing. Not only were we laughing at the name, but the box was faded and the picture was... green. Yes, it was a green spotted dick!!!

I remember a friend in Manhattan with a reeeally old Yorkie that bubbled and squeaked all the time 8|

In the interrests of transatlantic understanding - can someone explain "Weiner Dog?"

Poohgirl Jun 14th, 2005 10:00 AM

Green Dragon - yuck! Too funny!!

Hi
A while back 'Spotted Dick' apparently offended some Tesco's customers and the company renamed it Spotted Richard. Honest!

GreenDragon Jun 15th, 2005 06:12 AM

So no one has told me what they do to the poor little free-range Yorkies to make them spotted. Do they have acne? Are they infected with chicken pox? Neither seems very appetizing to me, personally... but then again, every culture has its haggis!

Greendragon, they stick dried fruit in it and boil it for an hour.

GreenDragon Jun 15th, 2005 11:00 AM

Doesn't it hurt the puppies when they stick in the dried fruit? Perhaps they should stick in hush puppies instead!

Collie-flower and cheese sauce?

Sealyham and cheese?

A Great Danish with coffee?


Scarlett Jun 15th, 2005 11:22 AM

I heard for snacks, a bag of LabraDoodles is good, you know, the salty cheesy ones!

A Great Danish with coffee?
Too sweet.
Here in New York, with our coffee, we have beagles. Cream cheese optional.

Scarlett Jun 15th, 2005 05:45 PM

Ahh elaine, it is impossible to get a good beagle in Florida ~

elaine Jun 15th, 2005 05:48 PM

Scarlett, my sister says the same thing about Atlanta. What she prefers in the morning is a slice of Sara Lee
hound cake.

Scarlett Jun 15th, 2005 05:52 PM

Sounds good elaine.
Here a quick lunch could be a nice Weimaraner with some Chow Chow on top.((&))

GreenDragon Jun 16th, 2005 07:10 AM

I much prefer to have a Great Danish, usually cheese or boysenberry. However, I've enjoyed Span-iel omelettes, with the tomotoes and onions, perhaps some corgi-ettes.

I also love getting a boxer of doughnuts for the office occasionally.

But my favorite after-dinner snack is a maltese milk shake!
