There were reportedly around a hundred faces trying to fern wrongside outwards.. .One suspecting fellow asked Bill if the cake contained any snake (another dish Mil is famous for serving unsuspecting tasters). BUI told the fellow. "No. sir. 1 guarantee there is no snake in ,* the cake". . .No mention was made About worms until later . . The recipe is as follows, just iu case you might like to cook a worm cake. . .3 cups of brown sugar. 1 cup water. Vi cup of bud or cooking oil, 1 cup seeded raisins. Vi teaspoon nutmeg.

"Also. If you fey -? ' :-vr. I are short some of the other ingredients, just add more worms.". . . The taste, accord ing to those who tried it is like a spice cake.. .like a fruitcake.. .1 guess the raisins gave one an impression of flies or squishee worms. . .Flies and worms in a cake?. . .1 favor the old-time ways, but I don't want to get that far back to basics....
