Video Game Grub: Apple Pie from “What Remains of Edith Finch”

Video Games are great! They give you whole worlds where you can live out a completely different life as a soldier, a cowboy, pirate, assassin, or even a uh, hedgehog. But, so many video games these days have such immersive worlds you’ll see all kinds of unique foods created for those world, twists on well-known dishes, or even actual recipes within the game!

Pumpkin Pie

Halloween has become an increasingly bigger deal over here in the UK over the last decade or so, most likely because it’s such a big deal in the USA.

Banoffee Pie

I’m not sure who first had the idea of putting toffee and banana together and then smothering it whipped cream but whoever it was, I’d like to thank them as this one of my favourite desserts, as it is for many other people I know. And the best thing is – it’s really simple and there’s no cooking involved at all! The only downside is the agonising wait for it…
