Aunt Bessie’s, a prepared food company in England believed it was helping increase the income of ice cream trucks by offering this cone of sausage, mashed potatoes, gravy and peas - a savory alternative to ice cream. Sadly one review wasn’t too generous in their opinion. Metro.co.uk originally declared this treat “Horrible, horrible, horrible, horrible, horrible, horrible, horrible…” However, when some Aunt Bessie’s people showed up at Metro’s offices lugging samples of cone-less sausage and mash, things changed. The Metro “correspondent” declared the mash to have “good texture,” the sausage was said to be “pretty tasty,” and the gravy “actually quite nice.” Apparently the cones weren’t working out too well (they disintegrated) and the suggestion to replace the cone with Yorkshire Pudding was taken under advisement.

Dear Aunt Bessie:

I am in dire need of a sausage-mash cone. Please cross the “Pond” and bring these glorious treats to the US as soon as possible, I beg you.
