you know I wouldn't help with the deliberate subversion of this thread (like we hadn't NOTICED, don't try to deny it)
but
does anyone know why rizlas are called rizlas? It's my latest piece of trivia and I need to share it.

It's because... the La Croix family made them, and to be witty they put "la" and a little cross (wot is on the packet as you can see, Croix meaning cross in foreign) - and the Riz bit? well it means rice, and they were (are?) rice paper.

thankyou very much for your attention.
