Real or Fake Dish?
Spotted dick. Angels on horseback. Hedgehog in a hammock. Some of these are real dishes people eat every day, and some we made up. Can you tell which is which?
How to play
- Read the dish name.
- Tap Real if you think it's a genuine dish, or Fake if you think we invented it.
- See the answer right away, with where each real dish comes from and what's in it.
- Ten dishes a day. Share your score and come back tomorrow for more.
Tips
- Don't trust a silly name. British and American home cooking is full of real dishes with very odd names.
- Names that are translations, like “old clothes” or “the imam fainted,” are often real.
- Every day has a mix of real and fake, usually around half and half.
Everyone gets the same ten dishes each day. Your answers and stats are saved only in this browser.
