Here you can read all about it. Sometimes it's traveling, sometimes it's homeschooling, occasionally we bitch. For some background, read our first post ever.

This is Scotch Tablet. It's a strange and delicious confection. It's like toffee, but not chewy, it's like fudge, but more grainy. It's a very Scottish candy: homey, friendly, unpretentious. It's a little rough around the edges and absolutely perfect that way.
According to the internet, Scotch Tablet has been around Scotland

For those who know me this is no big revelation. At work I would hover near the candy jar on the dub stage. When I was a boy it was strawberry Pop Tarts -- no, check that -- it's still strawberry Pop Tarts. As we've travelled this year I've been sampling as many strange junk foods as I can. But today at the grocery store it occurred to me that since I'm finally in a country where I can read labels and, mostly, understand them, my junk food horizons have been opened up immensely. Here are some of the things I've found. Anyone have any other regional favorites I should try?

This copy is just so good I have to repeat it, "Succulent pieces of SPAM covered in a deliciously light and crispy batter."
