Snickers Pie from the BBC site - Food for thought
Wow! a pie made of skickers bars. When i heard about this i had to check it out, because I love snickers bars.
This recipe was on the BBC web site but was promptly removed after recieveing complaints from the public. Each searving is said to contain over 1,000 callories. This sounds like a major heart attack pudding! Even though the page was removed, the recipe was still in googles cached results.
I would like to hear peoples thoughts on this pudding being removed from the BBC site. (Although im not condoning people to eat junk food) But i would like to know how the snickers pie tastes, is it worth the potentual heart attack.

I have to say that it sounds absolutely revolting. AWT did say that it was designed as a kids party food and thus meant to be eaten only once a year!
I checked the BBC site last week and they have put the recipe back on. They mentioned that it caused a cit for a media stir. I think they should put on what ever recipe they want as long as it comes with some nutritional information and maybe a warning. But to deny the public Snicker Pie is lunacy!
