ROTFLMAO!!!! :-D

Anyhow, to throw some more fuel in the Turkish Delight fire, I was 
talking with my brother last night and he told me the Turkish Delight 
he had was from Turkey or Greece. This morning I was searching around 
for Turkish Delight recipes and came across this site

This quote from the site popped out at me:

"I'd always envisioned Turkish Delight as being some kind of fudge or 
taffy, but it was completely different. It was kind of like rubbery 
Jell-O with a slight citrus taste. Hardly delightful. "

I don't know what's in a Violet Crumble, but I adore violet flavored 
candy. It's hard to find here but there's a violet candy and scented 
chewing gum made by C.Howards. Nice floral and sweet.
