so Johnny says, "well Miss, three women are eating vanilla slices: one licks it, one squeezes it between her lipsand the other bites into it...which one is married? :eek:

Teacher thinks for a moment and says, I suppose the one who licks it :angel:

On our 3 month trip in Central Oz we did an informal Vanilla Slice Survey ( yeah well gave us an interest )
It's amazing how they differ in each place.
The best ones we found were in Temora. ( the French Bakery)
Ouyen here in Victoria does a good one too. ( the annual Vanilla Slice competition is held there ).

But we prefer the ones with proper egg/vanilla custard, layered pastry and icing sugar.
Fake yellow custard ones with pink icing and flat pastry got voted down .

Eating them can be an issue I admit. Sometimes I resort to deconstructing and eating.

I use my bottom teeth (...the ones on my lower jaw...) to "saw" through the bottom pastry before biting.

The Mille-feuille (French pronunciation: [mil fœj], "thousand sheets"), Napoleon (U.S.), vanilla slice, cream slice or custard slice (Commonwealth countries) is a pastry made of several layers of puff pastry alternating with a sweet filling, typically pastry cream, but sometimes whipped cream, or jam. It is usually glazed with icing or fondant in alternating white and brown (chocolate) strips, and combed. The name is also written as "millefeuille" and "mille feuille".

I'm glad someone picked juddy on that.

juddy, in this country what you describe is called a French Vanilla Slice
If you don't like our traditional proper vanilla slice, don't eat it and leave them for the great unwashed, we'll gladly dispose of them. :D
