I believe the ingredients list should say duck legs, rather than duck eggs
saw this too-wakey wakey in the proofing office!
Surely I can't be the only one to notice the "bloomer" in the list of ingredients. After watching the programme, I felt certain Aaron used 2 duck legs, not 2 duck eggs. Time for a correction - or new secretary?
