Hey, those are different than the Cherry Ripes I found....Is that like a cookie? Haven't seen the ones with a layer of biscuit. I bet those are good too!

No layer of biscut in those they are just that much bigger. They are 200g instead of the 150g.

No, look close at the package. It's the same as a regular CR with a layer of cookie. I guess it be kinda of like a Girl Scout Samoa, except with cherries instead of caramel.

That's it...time to go to lunch...:eat

Hey thats not right I want a normal cherry ripe.

I must admit I'm now very curious. Too bad I'm also broke, or I'd definitely look to buy some online somewhere just to see what all the fuss is about.

Say Gus,

Are there any American food items we could possibly hook you on? Something you can't get over there as payment for this Cherry Ripe business? Next thing you know, we'll all be talking like Aussies! I think it's a plot...

As for me, I'm goin home to throw some chook on the barbie, kick back with a stubbie of Crownie, and barrack the Spurs. Phoenix stands Buckley's of beating San Antonio tonight.

So far I have found 34 posts that mention cherry ripes on dgrin.com there's prolly more than that though I think. Gus I think you have a lucrative career as a pusher if you ever wanna get off the poles.

Popcorn shrimp is available on every street corner almost though. Cherry ripes arent.

Dee
