The debonair Basil Marigold's

I have a new terrible secret and am not sure whether I should share it, it could embarrass my wife and she is laughing at me because of it, all for £14.99!

Surely, but surely if you were going to sell anything edible, you'd taste it first just to make sure that it was in fact a) edible and b) tasty? Just me again? Where was the quality control here? I mean, I taste the family dinner before I serve it up, admittedly in the case of my daughter who would eat almost anything this isn't really an issue. Actually, she did eat some of that cake and didn't flinch.

Is it morally wrong to return to a Church fete and demand a refund from the person responsible for selling the worlds worst sponge cakes? while handing them a recipe written in big felt tip, which is easily followed?

They were that bad, honestly, everyone agreed, 60p for 8. It was almost a legalised mugging.

My wife found herself at a Church Fete today, at a Methodist Church next to a local shop she had gone too. Buying 6 Strawberry Jam sponge cakes. They can only be described as the worst cakes I have ever tasted! apparently they were made with Brown Flour. It's an experience I hope never to have again.

And I certainly know the brands they advertise. This ain't George Foreman. It is a George Forman grill. This is a George Foreman, Lean, Mean, Grilling Machine. It is even advertised as such on the Price Tag. It is actually quite a good bargain. One can only assume that when at the wholesalers the buyer decided to hijack the Indian shipment, and I imagine that Sanjeev Kapoor is not a world heavyweight boxer at all. Interesting how the same product is advertised differently according to the country of sale. It now appears as a lean, mean, tandoory machine. It did get me wondering as to how, if we'd never heard of George Foreman, we'd see this advertised in the UK and by who.
