Thread Name: BS: Taste of Ireland??
Subject: BS: Taste of Ireland??
Some chums returned from hols in Ireland, bearing gifts!

Included 'A Taste of Ireland, Vanilla Fudge'

Blurb on box says:

'The timeless mystical image of a cottage by the lake evokes a unique memory of Ireland - a special place, a land of beauty & many treasures.

Take a moment to savour a taste of Ireland with this Vanilla Fudge & recreate the experience of a magical land'
.


Seems vanilla is a native of Mexico, & largest producer is Madagascar – don't know of any Irish connection??

And interestingly, appears name 'Vanilla' comes from same word root as 'Vagina'!!

See here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vanilla
.

But again, what I don't get is the 'Taste of Ireland 'connection.

Similar examples??
