The amount of mayo on the Rapa Nui hot dog is bordering on obscene.

These are amazing treats. I bought a box of them (36 rolls) and brought them back a few years ago when I was in London. My friend's horses loved them, too. My other favorite candy is LoveHearts, also only available in GB, but I can get them from BritishDelights.com...for better or worse...
