What do you get, when you pour hot water down a rabbit hole?
...hot, cross, bunnies!

One a penny, two a penny..
In what region are those things made?
The kitchen, usually.
(They are traditionally English, I think, but we took them round the world that time we did a colonialism.)
I think it's an Easter religious thing for Christianity, since I see them advertised since December/January if Aldi/Coles/Woolworths.
Without the crosses, they'd just be hot buns, and I'd be okay with that. Or hearts, or checkers, or dicks, all is okay. 😂
What are sultanas? They look delicious
Sultanas are dried green grapes, so they're lighter in colour, whereas raisins are purple (or any dark) grapes. Sultanas are nicer to eat because they're not as hard, raisins just get stuck in my teeth.
Sultanas seem to be more common down under.
Edit: Forgot to say thank you!
There are also currants, just to complicate matters further!
Per Wikipedia:
The word raisin is commonly used for the dried dark-colored seedless grape, while sultana is a golden-colored dried grape, and currant is a dried small Black Corinth seedless grape.
I think there might be some small differences in how they’re produced? But they’re all dried grapes.
I've seen currant lambic beers (maybe I tried one once), sure didn't know it was another raisin. Didn't know that the different grapes all got different names once dried. I guess I learned something today. That's always nice. Thanks.
Probably! I think I've only eaten currants in fresh form when they come in frozen mixed fruit bags.
If you're ever stuck in the US look for "Golden Raisins," same thing. I agree they're superior to the dark raisins.
Gotcha. Regional name?
