frosting, icing, it is not a waste of butter and sugar, uk

If I knew you were wanking, I'd have iced a cake
Over in hp_britglish, schemingreader makes the mistake of asking what the stuff you spread on top of a cake is called. Hint: It ain't "frosting".

oncelikeshari thinks that butter icing is evil and wrong and should be stopped, or that it doesn't exist. I'm not entirely sure.

Either way, I want cake. :(

Short, but sweet.

	I just the other day saw some related mini-micro Top Chef wankery. Except it was France. The contestants had to prepare a dish highlighting chicken, potatoes and onions to be judged by the French Culinary Institute, and the objection was something like "zomg potatoes aren't FRENCH they've only been there 200 years!"

	Well, I don't think tomatoes are actually Italian either, but... :B (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Correct. But the US has only had hamburgers, hot dogs, and apple pie for half the time of potatoes in France, and around the same as the tomato in Italy. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
