I bite the top bit (with the glaze)/bits where the glaze has seeped in off little bits at a time (having torn said bits off). Don't eat the rest. Vile and wasteful!

I said recklessly, but it's quite methodical and didn't match the other options. Start at one side and eat forward to about 1/3 in. Then rotate a third of a turn and eat inwards, then again. Finally devour the floppy and rapidly falling-apart middle in a couple of bites or so.

A bit like going round the spiral, but always biting across at least one join. Never unwind. That's just Wrong.

I fear I'm about to be banished, but I don't know what a cinnamon danish is. If a danish pastry is the bun equivalent of a cumberland sausage, I can probably guess the rest and it sounds like something I need in my life.

It's amazing what you miss out on being diabetic froma kid!

It's like a cumberland sausage made of puff pastry spread with cinnamon custard and then rolled up. Very sugary, so I'm not surprised you it's out of bounds.

Ah, yes, I think I do know what one is! It wouldn't be out of bounds now that insulin therapy has moved on a bit, but it certainly was then, so I never got into the habit...which, is probably just as well! ;-)

I want one now! specifically from the weird chain of bakers that only did hot danishes, I've only seen two of them, one in central london the other in a shopping centre in stirling. hot and with creamcheese icing, yummy!

It can't have been there when I was living in Stirling or I'd have been in there every day! Sounds yummy.

I start just biting into it until the middle and last one or two circles then savour that last bit slowly. If there is a cherry on top then that always gets eaten first, but a cinnamon danish cannot be enjoyed without a big glass of cold milk or diet coke or pot of tea, one cannot go without the other!
