The great scone debate
 

Two polls in one :wink:

Do you pronounce it as in "cone" or as in "gone".

And which goes on first - clotted cream, or jam? Bear in mind that as a Devonshire boy I will judge you :idc:

..'gone' and I don't know what goes on first because I'm not that keen on scones and especially with cream and jam...

It's scone as in ice cream cone. or Obama killed a terrorist with a drone.

I've never actually eaten a scone before though so i have no idea what how you eat them.

When i eat toast though, i put the butter on before the jelly. so I assume for a scone you would put the cream on before the jam.

Jam before cream sounds like an absurd thing to do

s-con

And I hate them so cant answer the second bit :laugh:

yeah, the cream's too messy to put on second (unless it's REALLY thick, in which case ew)

I say s-con.

And I've never actually tried a scone in my life, probably because I've never tried jam before in my life. The mixture of jam and cream scares me for some reason.

just went to the co-op and they had no clotted cream :bored: don't even sell it. how awful.

I honestly have no idea what clotted cream is. can anyone tell me what the American equivalent would be? It looks like a cross between butter and frosting.

it's cream that's steamed/heated in water, and left to cool for a while, so it's a lot thicker... and spreadable.

So it's like "i can't believe it's not butter"?

I guess, but it's not butter :laugh: tastes like cream.
