After reading The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe, you thought Turkish Delight must be the most wonderful treat in the world and you were sadly disappointed by the cornstarch dusted, rose-scented goo you bought at an international market. You said, "Ptooey! Man, what was C. S. Lewis on?" And you never tried Turkish Delight again, assuming it was some Victorian era "treat" which predated candy that actually tasted good.

Then, years later, you went out for falafel and noticed some goo in the pastry case at the falafel place. But this goo looked different. Chock full of pistachios, for one thing, and less cornstarch.

Tempting.

A couple years later, you actually got a piece and ate it.

And it was good. Tons of pistachios. Very rose flavored. Being an amalgam of sugar and fat, it's also very energizing. Tastes good with coffee. You had some for breakfast today. You are thinking you'd like some more.

If you're local, you can revise your opinion of C. S. Lewis's tastebuds at Aladdin Express. If you're not, I bet you can find a falafel place or Mediterranean bakery where they make their own.
