On the telly the other night, they made Tottenham cake! I was flagger-fucking-gasted, i had never heard of it. So of course I Googlerised it:
Tottenham Cake "was originally sold by the baker Henry Chalkley, who was a Friend (or Quaker), at the price of one old penny, with smaller mis-shaped pieces sold for half an old penny." The pink colouring was derived from mulberries found growing at the Tottenham Friends burial ground.
So, now we can turn any match-day thread into a food related thread - if anyone gets all pissy and asks why we are doing it we can just quote 'Tottenham cake' and tell them to fuck off to the other place if they don't like it. OK, Henry was a bit of a cunt colouring it pink, but I will forgive him because I like his oats. When I get Mrs D to make some delicious Tottenham cake it will not be pink because we don't got no mulberries so she can leave that bit out.
