*spits out fig* :eek: Whaaaaaat??? :eek: Er, thanks (not) for sharing that info with us...
Wasps, apparently!
I think they taste a bit like sultanas but with a fresh green leaf aroma. Very grainy texture.

Thanks. I think I'll give them a miss. I hate wasps, sultanas and grainy textures :eek:
I don't blame you - I'm still traumatised by the dead wasp thing. It's like something Heston Blumenthal would have conjured up. Never mind his Christmas pudding with hidden orange, try fig with hidden wasp...!
