Yes, we've had the Mince Pie Challenge, The Carrot Cake Challenge, and now, until we here in the UK leave the E.U. it's time for The Enid Blyton Omelette Challenge!
Although the French have made omelettes for years, as you most likely know, the earliest omelettes are believed to have originated in ancient Persia.
But anyway, back to our quiz - yes, it's a bit of a stinker I know, but this one is for the greatest Enid Blyton minds and serious collectors who really know their stuff!!According to Breakfast: A History, they were "nearly indistinguishable" from the Iranian dish kookoo sabzi...
Enter the quiz as many times as you like.
How many omelette references do you think we can find?
Remember, it's not a pancake quiz - that would be far too easy!!
I think FIVE Omelette references is a reasonable goal for us to reach?
I will start us off:
1.The Queen Elizabeth Family - 1951 :
2.At breakfast the following morning the children are faced with 'porridge, cereals, iced melon, stewed fruit, bacon, eggs, steak, fish, omelettes, chops, ham, tongue...' and are told by the stewardess that they can eat as much or as little as they like.
