A treacle sounds bad, man. I doubt it is a delicacy--or even what counts as one in England.


Maybe we can hand out tiny cans of treacle as demerits.

Treacles are the little giraffe in the Amazon that swim up your peehole if you pee in the water.

I won't go on and explain what a treacle tart is.  Just thinking of it... well... I need a lie down.

they're also known as toothpick giraffe or snatch giraffe, in one of the rare occurrences in Nature of an animal name that hurts you...

Actually they just view this as a challenge.

Shows what you know.   The whole candirú thing is a god damned myth.   You know who started and spread that myth?  The treacles.   They have the same PR firm as the bears.   That PR firm told the bears to start the my that in a bear attack you should curl up into a ball and not fight back or run.   

Treacles are all "Heeeey man... it's cool, you can pee here... ain't no candirú in this river."

Then BANG! Treacle in your peehole.

I try to help you people but, you know what they say...never wisen a chump or give a sucker an even break.

I've only seen it in a jar. How else can you get it?

It comes in a tin. You have to lever the top off with a spoon. Google Image Search it and you'll see the good stuff.

having looked up golden syrup and all the other cool stuff about sweeteners, ive come to the conclusion that sugar is a complex animal.  just complex as hell.  all there existing 48764857945687345 ways to make it use-able to man...

Golden Syrup is fuck*ng wonderful. Eaten straight out the tin with a spoon, on ice cream, as part of a cake, on toast, mixed with a beverage, whatever, it is a fuck*ng beautiful thing and I will fight any bloke who disparages it as 'fake corn syrup imitation' or whatever abomination above was being used to describe it

I'm actually weeping right now that I do not have any in the cupboard whilst back home there'd be at least 4 tins.
