"Geometry has never tasted so good. As an avid hobby cook, much like me, you may have already realized that the way food tastes is largely influenced by its method of preparation. How to solve the spinach quandary then? Just throw in some cheese and hide it all under a blanket of fluffy dough. Your kids will love our cheese and spinach triangles and might even ask to take them to school the next day. No kids at home? They’re fantastic for lunch or as a quick and easy dinner."
