    What brand is your preference for Lady Fingers, between Oberlanders, Ostreichers, and Haggada?

    Speaking of which, when I was a child they were all called lady fingers. Nowadays some companies rebranded them simply as Finger or Baby Fingers. What's up with that? Is that some kind of political correctness? (Which makes me wonder where the name came from in the first place.)

    It's kind of sad, but people actually decided the term "Lady Fingers" wasn't tznius, so they changed the name.

    They all taste like potato starch, water and sugar.

    Perhaps someone decided that calling them lady fingers violates some precept of tznius, after all ... eztzba ketana....

    they were prob called lady fingers coz they were light and delicate.
    they could have made larger cookies and called em men fingers .
    then it would be fair to both

    the lady fingers werent good because all of em wanted wedding rings, so they changed it to baby fingers so that they are smaller, (cheaper) and noone has to buy any jewelry erev pesach because they are too busy cleaning
