There are two types of people – fine upstanding individuals with taste and style who appreciate the magnificence of the coconut finger and then there are those “people” who like beetroot. I need to know how many of the Well Done Fillet readership prefer the ghastly beetroot over the sweet sticky loveliness of a coconut finger as it appears some of you appear to like the root of all evil.
It’s important, probably the most important poll of the week.
Poll created by YouGov (hence the bias, heh)
(polls)
**Updated with unity candidate**
Well Done Fillet, dealing with the big issues everyday.
beetroot is evil, coconut fingers Manuel the Waiter, Well Done Fillet
Does this count as a vote or do I still have to go to the polling station tomorrow?
this counts….more
I like both, but I’m going to betray my culchie upbringing and insist on referring to them as “donkey’s lugs”
What if I like both?!
Before I vote… Is a coconut finger like an iced finger with added coconut bits? If yes then this becomes a difficult choice and I could end up on the fence.
there’ll be no liking both….don’t even think about it…and yes Andino that’s exactly what a coconut finger is…the coconut is added my angels singing Cure songs….nice
Sign me up for the coconut fingers then. I might have to attempt to make some as North Wales seems to be a coconut finger free zone.
Oh my, those coconut fingers do look tasty. I was picturing something more akin to a Bounty bar or a Summer roll. Hmmmm, I may need to try one.
Who gets hung if the vote ends in a draw?
Andino, let us know how that baking attempt goes, we don’t have em in Australia either!
I’m no great fan of beetroot, but ruining a perfectly decent iced bun with coconut is sheer madness. Thankfully I’ve never seen such a monstrosity in England.
Jesus u have little to be doing!
arf….just back from the shop….v busy you know….
coconut can chew my balls – fact, the whole thai people can fuck clean aff with what they did to curry the barbarians that they are. Beetroot – beetrooot is ace – beetroot, carrot and ginger juice is scrummy – yes scrummy – beetroot in salads, dry in coleslaw – its the versatility of beetroot, its the root to ‘beet’ them all as they probably say in the beetroot marketing offices.
ps did you get any post off myself and herself?
oh and if it’s a hung vote the tories get in….and if they get in it’ll be beetroot for the masses and only tory toffs will get coconut fingers….it’s a grim future…
toast: yer wrong….so so wrong…beet yourself with a shoe
I did Toast. Did I not email…oh crikey, how rude. AFL was superb, really really superb. LMM is gonna make me a sock monster thing…she doesn’t know it yet….heh
I demand to vote for both. A coalition vote.
now updated with unity candidate…..sake
Oy! What about coconut beetroot fingers?
That’s an easy choose … cake beets veg every time!
coconut finger hands down…. as long as its not one of the overbaked ones…. or stale…. i like em soft, squidgy, lightly browned and with a thick layer of butter in the middle…..
cuppa cha and a coconut finger anyone….

Cocomut has the texture of packing crate material.
Nasty.
@ Kelly, think more along the lines of a finger bun…assuming that’s what they are called in your state. In south Oz, they are finger buns.
Why cant u have a vote for all three?
Listen, I LOVE beetroot.. But, I’ve never had a coconut ‘finger.’ But, I do love coconut. So therefore I had to choose the beetroot option, but if there were an option for both, I would probably have chosen it.
sock monster thing! hmmph! it was quite plainly Medusa, she’s turned people to stone for less.
i voted beetroot – i like both if i’m honest, but you can’t grow coconut fingers down the allotment. (god knows i’ve tried, but it seems to still just be mostly weeds.)
definate vote for the lovely coconut fingers, though smokey bacon crisps are very yumma
Manuel,
Coconut fingers are the brussels sprouts of cakes. Fact. End of.
Wait, maybe they’re the cauliflower of cakes. You see where I’m going with this. Mouth breather cakes, that’s what they are, mouthbreather cakes!
What brand of smokey bacon crips? This is important.
PS on another note, Citeh lost, no champions league for them heh heh heh.
yes at the end of the day we can set aside our differences…put the bushels of beets down, bin the fingers and in unison take a great big deep breath and…
LAUGH AT CITEH!
hahahahahahahahahahaha!
Good times!
“CITEH” mighnt hav got into champions league but oh sorry did the other manchester team get into final? Eh?eh?mayb the cousin should sell me his ticket to Madrid!!
ha….maybe we do something about your spelling tomorrow…hehehehe
Brussels sprouts! Now those are a special brand of evil. Ghastly things.
Hepta: Yeah,thanks. I’ve seen similar, we call em finger buns or sticky fingers in Melbourne. I’ll have to add my own coconut though, as they just come topped with icing!
I was certainly going for the coconut iced finger bun until I saw the crispy bacon! So, no vote from me.
Kelly, forget about the finger buns and adding coconut, go large and get yourself a Boston bun. You know it makes sense!

awesome
Never even HEARD of “beetroot.” Is that somehow different from a plain old beet? Is it only found in Ireland? Sounds suspicious, frankly, and not at all tasty.
Damn. I want all three!
