Does anyone actually eat anyother flavour than butterscotch?

It's the best flavour there is...there's an entry in the offing on that dessert I think.

I'm sure most of us have probably inhaled a whole packet over the years the way the powder creates a cloud as you pour the stuff out.

Yes, that's the flavour that sticks in my mind. I can't be sure of the others, but 'banana' and 'the pink one' must be candidates.

I'll see what I can turn up in my research...

Just spent an amusing hour researching Angel Delight - yes, I think there's a story to be told.

My favourite fact is this piece from last November's Sunday Mirror (so it must be true)...

***
X FACTOR boss Simon Cowell has become hooked on Angel Delight as he struggles to cope with the backlash over Jedward.

He was so rattled by the row over the twins that he's started comfort eating his favourite childhood pudding, according to best pal Sinitta.

"He has a two-packet-a-day problem or habit - it's his comfort food," said mumof-two Sinitta, 41.

Two packets of the just-add-milk dessert are enough for eight servings.

She adds: "He walks round with a packet of cigarettes and a packet of Angel Delight.

He will have a bowl of pink Angel Delight at home or in the back of a limo.
