I can offer you some treacle tart (not home made I'm afraid, but still very nice) if you'll look the other way whilst I fling a few more things?

It doesn't actually have treacle in it! It does have a lovely golden syrup and breadcrumb filling though: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Treacle_tart

So, if anyone but Nate loses does that mean he wins? But what if I don't like cheese?

I have voted for Italy because the Italians that I have talked to have promised that their first act as Sovereign would be to decree that all requests that Zelda update her device profile would end and never be spoken of again. Then and only then can Zelda take her place on the throne and not have to worry about trivial things but instead be focused on the greater good of the mighty Mobilita Republica. Viva Italia! Viva Zelda! Viva Mobilita Republica!

Madame Z? Under Mobility Republica, there is no Italy, or Germany, or Canada!

There is only M. R. Viva M.R.!

A lovely tart indeed!!

I went off on a wander from that link, to the British desserts page, then to the crumbles (a personal favourite ), where I encountered this monstrosity:

The Rhubarb and Apple Crumble Pizzette - is it some sort of joke?

If so, it's in very poor taste - literally!!
