Serious point for a second. Does anyone know what Peanut Brittle is? Is it real? Has anyone actually tasted it if it is?

Never heard of it before. I had to look it up on wikipedia. Sounds tasty.

I find it funny that the wiki page points out that Peanut Brittle was "Not created in Bakersfield".

Warspite1

Interesting...I'll check out what Ambroses' take on the Bakersfield situation is.

And now it is time for me to sip on my freshly brewed cup of tea. And watch something on TV.

Warspite1

Great minds think alike - I've just made one too; in my nice big Brother Bear mug - luvverly!!

Okay I've checked it out - From Ambroses' The Peanut Brittle Conundrum, Chapter 3 - Was Peanut Brittle created in Bakersfield? Ambrose states:

No Warspite1 you moron, a) Steiner has already told you it was an Egyptian Pharoah and b) You are in the wrong thread - you should be discussing this in the Happy National Peanut Brittle Day thread.

Sounds conclusive to me.

I will give away a special prize if anyone can tell me what time Peanut Brittle is typically eaten in Nauru.

Warspite1

I know this!!!

Its snack time. BTW isn't Nauru the smallest country in the world or something like that?

Very good warspite1, correct on both answers. But you forgot to put your answer in time format. Sorry, no prize.

warspite1 it is time for a glass of Peanut Brittle Smoothie-at precisely 17:14:22:21:20 BEEP BEEP BEEP

Warspite1

Maybe in your neck of the woods it is - but over here its time for a jolly nice cup of tea [:)] spiffing what?.

Tea time is actually the only time that counts.[:)]

Edit: I'll spiff up the tea with warm water.

Instead of warm water use "fried water", tastes much better. Soupy Twist.

ORIGINAL: Orm

And what time is tea time in Swedensville?

Tea time, of course.

I would take it with Peanut Brittle but, alas, we Swedes are are so barbaric that we do not have any.[:(]

Well you have none now, but during the 3rd century A.D. Peanut Brittle was the official time telling device of Swedensville. Not sure how it worked, but I am SURE warspite1 can tell u.

It's real. It is soon to be the new, official, currency of World of Warcraft.

Get on the correct thread.[:-]

To tell time using Peanut Brittle: First you need a minimum 4oz of fresh Peanut Brittle, a 12 " piece of Linen Cord, when you have these, conect the cord to the Peanut Brittle with at least 9" of cord free. Attach the cord to a West facing branch, identified by the setting sun and verified by the rising sun. At exactly 12 noon the string will cast no shadow. That will be exzctly 12 noon. Now you can eat a lunch of Peanut Brittle.

Another LOL. And another winner for an entertaining post. Your prize-ONE POUND of Brazilian Peanut Brittle. Email warspite1 with your contact information.

parusski: Sorry can't pass that info to Warspite. The company I work for desires I remain any mouse under the penalty of revealing my whereabouts to the Brittle Clan. That bunch has a real sticky network, and don't forget they are also real nutty.

Very wise planner3. Steiner had no right to ask you to divulge your address details. He of all people should know that the Brittle Clan are evil, pure unadulterated evil. And as for tempting you with one pound of Brazilian Peanut Brittle? Well that was simply irresponsible. Brazilian PB is the strongest version of PB and if you don't know what you are doing can pack a real - and deadly - punch. From Ambroses' The Human Cost of Peanut Brittle: Chapter 7 - The Deadly Roll of Honour - these are some of the famous people believe to have dropped off this mortal coil courtesy of Brazilian PB:

- Jimi Hendrix
- J Edgar Hoover
- Elvis Presley (although Ambrose makes the case for the very real possibility that he is not dead; he is still alive and well running a peanut farm just outside Rio de Janeiro)
- Stalin
- Amy Winehouse

You are, of course, leaving out the fact that Peanut Brittle made in Roman Britain and that has been maturing since then is the strongest kind of Peanut Brittle on earth.

Warspite1

Yes, Roman PB is the strongest - and indeed it was that version that was used to build the T-34 mentioned earlier, however it is not the deadliest; that is the preserve of Brazilian [X(].

Care to enlighten us further planner3?

Hah ! Mr. Warspite you have met our mutual enemy, with a sticky sweet approach and even disquised as Cracker Jacks they caused the evil "Sticky Fingers" Remember the Brittle wars and see your dentist every 2 months (especially after Brazilian Peanut Brittle}.

Read "The Battle of Brittle" or the sequel "There Will Always be a Brittle" and another good read "Brittle Rules the Waves" and the American History of "Brittle of Bull Run".[>:]

You will be lucky if a dentist is all you need after some Brazilian....

planner 3, your memory does not fail, though this song is most likely by a much younger group PEANUT BRITTLE SONG
