Could be used as either a game that you can eat, or food that you can play with.

Excellent.

own up, stu. you have lost the pieces - haven't you?
-- po, May 02 2002


half breadsticks surely.
-- IvanIdea, May 02 2002


Uncooked spaghetti.
-- waugsqueke, May 02 2002


I thought about uncooked spaghetti, but it wouldn't be as nice to eat. The game would just have to be larger than usual to allow breadsticks to be used.
-- stupop, May 02 2002


Ah, *bread*sticks! When I first read this I thought you meant French sticks and I was bemused, to say the least.
-- salachair, May 02 2002


salachair, you're thinking about Fun Pub-size Edible Kerplunk, with grapefruit and french sticks.
-- calum, May 02 2002


Well, if you're talking on that large a scale, then I'd suggest using some sort of sausage. Or perhaps carrots.

breadsticks & small fried cambert cheeses falling into a cranberry sauce when they drop.

really large chips (fries) & small picked onions, landing in a bar-b-q sauce when they fall.

finally, malteasers & chocolate fingers, falling into a caramel/butterscotch sauce.

hard cheeses & grapes, with crackers an optional 4th course.

I think I might bake this the next time I have people round for dinner. [mymus] I really like the 'falling into a dip' touch.
-- stupop, May 02 2002


stupop, curry dips buckaroo another (messy) classic.

Fondue sticks and dip-able food? Put the lot over a fondue pot and dig in when someone spills....

You don't want to know what I was thinking when I first read the title...

I seem to have lost my marbles...

this must be a british game? i had to look it up, but after doing so i saw that it would work perfectly with those very thin, crispy breadsticks served at italian restaurants. would look quite fetching with pimento-stuffed green olives.

I don't think it's British just old. I remember teh commercials for it running during Saturday morning cartoons. My frreind had the game it's fun. But who get to eat it the loser or the winner? I think uncooked fried foods falling, and splashing into hot oil would make the game a lot more interesting. Hmm maybe just something falling into hot chese for the kiddies.
