Littlegreen, Wojtek, Ross. & RileyHollyoaks - Dinner - 3pts each

Question Eleven: Name something you'd have in a fry-up
Some good thinking-outside-the-box here, with answers that are technically a "part of it" but are considered accompaniments:
Spoiler:

Shaun - Butter
Withano - Kidney
Calderyon - Eggs
Littlegreen - Black pudding
Matthew. - Cup of tea
Babayaro - Brown sauce
Amy Jade - Eggy bread

Question Thirteen: Name an alcoholic spirit.
This was a tricky one since the technicalities of what "is" and "isn't" a spirit were all over the place and hard to follow... some of you gave brands, too, so I reduced them to the types of spirit as the question required.
Spoiler:

Shaun - Bourbon
Withano - Schnapps
Mitchell - Rum
Calderyon - Whiskey
Littlegreen - Arak
Babayaro - Absinthe
Amy Jade - Singani
Owen19 - Tequila

One obvious answer popped up 3 times:
Spoiler:

There was one incorrect answer:
Spoiler:

Matthew. - Smirnoff Ice - not only is this a brand, but it's also a brand of an Alcopop rather than an actual spirit, sorry! 12pts.


Question Fourteen: Name a pizza topping
Technically I would've had to allow everything for this answer, including "semen", "batteries" and "dead people", but we all went a little more safe than that...
Spoiler:

Shaun - Bacon
Withano - Onion
Mitchell - Anchovies
Littlegreen - Baked beans & sausage (Heinz Pizza) - this sounds positively delightful
Matthew. - Red onion
Wojtek - Ham
Babayaro - Sausage
Ross. - Sweetcorn
Amy Jade - Meatballs
RileyHollyoaks - Pepperoni

Just the one duplicate answer:
Spoiler:

Calderyon & Owen19 - Tuna - 1pt each


Question Fifteen: Name a type of savoury pie
Again, you could've really convinced me with any old weird recipe containing anything other than sweet-foods...
Spoiler:

Shaun - Smoked salmon
Withano - Ham, leek and potato
Calderyon - Kalakukko
Littlegreen - Lamb curry
Matthew. - Quiche
Babayaro - Macaroni
Ross. - Corned beef

4 of you went safe, though:
