Scrumdidiliumptious bars. My sister and I have had discussions about the ingredients that would make up a scrumdidili... bar. We think it's gooey, crunchy, and chocolaty. My mom shared an idea, but we both knew that she simply just didn't get it. We have talked about what real chocolate bar comes closest. For not "getting" it, our mom once made something that came closer than any store-bought candy.

Speaking of the brilliance of Roald Dahl and food, at least from Willy Wonka (the original movie), the big bouncy balls that break open for chocolate. I've always wanted to bite into one of the teacups, but I imagine butterscotch and that doesn't appeal to me so much.

Also - Mystic Pizza, from the movie. Though I'm not sure it wasn't based on a real place. A small mom & pop pizza place in Connecticut that can win over a snooty critic with its mysterious ingredients... Yum!
