Sausage.

And Prunes.

Now, there's a combination I've not heard in a long, long time.


Remind me to avoid being anywhere near you between 4 and 12 hours after you've had these.

You know, these could actually be tasty. The flavor combo is intreaguing. Makes me think of maybe a filling for a pasty or something... With some appropriate spices (mace, cinnamon, black pepper) that could be really tasty.

I am also reminded (not sure why, cuz except for stuffed fruits, there's no similarity) of some lovely chocolate-covered, almond stuffed dates I had once. Those were mighty tasty too. :)
