I always wanted to taste lembas! Until I do though, I will stay with Farmer Maggot's mushrooms (I know what they taste like: at least, I guess they taste like the mushrooms we know...)! Arise now, Riders of Théoden!Let horse be bridled, horn be sounded!Forth Eorlingas!

I always pictured lembas as looking something like those Pepperidge Farms cookies...the ones with the lacy edges...only more substantial.

Lembas as cookies??!! I always imagined they were similar to a corn cake, for some reason.

According to The Tolkien Companion, "lemas is the Sindarian name for a kind of travellers' food or 'way bread', baked by the Elves of Lothlorien. It resembled cram (the waybread of the Men of Dale) in purpose but not in effect, being quite delicious and greatly sustaining, the more so if it was not mingled with other foods. It consisted of light-golden meal-cakes which kept fresh for many days if left in their mallorn-leaf wrappings." Sounds like a kind of cupcake to me (though before I read this, I thought of a kind of cracker). Arise now, Riders of Théoden!Let horse be bridled, horn be sounded!Forth Eorlingas!

Still sounds like a round disk of cornmeal-like bread to me...

Well mine would be Sunday Dinner, and I would go down the shop and buy it, and then cook it. But that would be on a different thread to this one now I look closer at previous answers. "Some of the Scottish troops ran for five miles before they were killed. Others threw themselves into the sea. The number of dead is impossible to calculate, but there must have been several thousand. They included 5 Scottish Earls. The few prisoners who had been taken were put to death on Edward III's order, a final act of savagery for which there is no rational explanation. English casualties were light.
