    @philippa smith2. Why on earth would they do that when the current situation is more profitable?
    @josusa47. You dont need to cancel Christmas. Nobody will miss the marzipan.I

    I am minded of the great roast potato famine of 1983(or thereabouts). My mum was mortified for at least two years. There were no leftover roast potatoes, so naturally she assumed that she hadn't made enough. Someone was going hungry for want of a spud. Wrong. By chance she'd got it just rignt. But could we convince her??

    Lack of marzipan is certainly something I can happily live with. :D

    It 's not what you eat between Xmas and New Year that is the problem.  It's what you eat between New Year and Xmas.

    Have a merry Xmas everyone.
