how does one eat a vanilla slice?

You still have the icing on top (bottom) during every bite and the layer of pastry that now is on the bottom still holds the whole thing together. I must admit that it's taken quite a few vanilla slices over the years to come by this technique, and I'm sure it will probably take the rest of my lifetime to truely perfect it.:D

Just what i was going to say.... go for the upside down!

Mmmmmmm.............

1st form (or year 7 for the whipper snappers) at Jannali Boys - Monday was a joy to behold. Canteen lunch - rissole roll and a vanilla slice!! Followed by a choo choo bar or redskin chaser and a moove milk...:D

As for eating it....like a pie at the footy...quickly, messily and with style...:cool:

and a french vanilla slice is even worse...

but i love them so.....

Another Jannali boy eh. Mine was a Big Ben and a Finger Bun if I remember correctly.

I don't think there is any elegant, civilized way of dealing with one. Just go for it and wipe shirtfront off with fingers and lick them.

Yummy yummy yummy
Snot cream pie
Dead dogs liver
Squashed blow fly
Put it on a sandwich
Spread it on thick
Wash it down the throat
With a hot cup of sick
:D:p

Amazing the things that come to mind sometimes. And FWIW a mere trifle does it for me too.

Caramello (or was it salmonella) custard
Green snot pie
Mix it all together with a dead mans eye
Slap it on a sandwich
Nice and thick
Then gobble it down
with a hot cup of sick.


Ahhhh the schoolyard memories.:D
