(Although, ginger biscuits are not the same colour as ginger hair (orange) or ginger beer (light brown) etc. Ginger itself isn’t orange at all.)

I guess that few people who’ve eaten Garibaldi biscuits have heard of the Italian revoloutionary.

…or they could just prefer dark chocolate Hob Nobs which are making a comeback.

I’d heard somewhere, years ago, that the main reason the Hindu faith banned the eating of cow was because the leaders at the time, back in the day, wanted to protect a food source (the milk), that it was a political move to make cattle sacred and therefore inedible. Had they not treated their cattle as holy, they would have killed all of them for food during famine or something.

Secondly, people who can’t break their diets even to have one fucking chocolate-covered ginger should be forced to live on tofu and grass.

Thirdly, food rules that spring from religion are as stupid as sex rules that spring from religion. High priests of all persuasions don’t like to see their followers enjoying themselves by eating pork, beef, or chocolate-covered ginger. Particularly when the followers dig into those delicacies while screwing outside the bonds of “holy” matrimony. Folks who listen to religious leaders about what they can and cannot eat should be condemned to a diet of boiled chicken, broccoli, and — ack! — white chocolate. And no whipped cream in bed!

Fourthly, what did you do with the leftovers?
