Not once since I read "The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe" have I ever searched for "Turkish Delight" assuming it was an author's "conceit" but I just did.
I thought the same until I encountered it in an import store. Glad I'm not alone.

I had some a long time ago and got rather fond of it. It is probably sweeter than a lot of foreign (to the US) confections, but I rather like it for the variety of flavors and the novelty. The texture is gummy, but smoother and doesn't stick in my teeth. With a rabbit that is important.

I've read some of Lewis' books, but never read the Narnia books.

Another bird.

I would say, based on the evidence, that responders in this thread favor animal motifs in their choice of avatar.

Hermit thrush isn't it?

That is where I buy mine. Local global import food market.

Although I'm not sure why anyone would put Turkish delight in their mouth. I don't find the texture pleasant

That seems to be an issue for a lot of people. I said gummy, but that doesn't quite describe it. It doesn't stick to my teeth the way I recognize something gummy would. It is softer than that.

When I was a kid, I never wanted to go to bed. Now as an adult, I can't wait. Gotta go.

Everyone of you is a winner in my book. Just not in this thread.

I win again.

I win today with over $100 worth of freebies due to a scheduling error (waxing) and wanker cook who decided he didn't need a thermometer and served my mom a medium rare steak even though she ordered it medium well, and when it went back it came back medium rare with the very outside being medium.

With a vowel movement like that, you'd be insane too. And it is Mizzuree and not Mizzurah like some people call it. That just drives me even deeper into the warren of my insanability. It has gotten so bad, I'm making up words.
I side with Tech9 and call it "misery."
About the only other thing I know about the state is it really weirds me out when someone says I'm from the South.
