The answers to today's Strands, game #229, are GYOZA SAMOSA WONTON PIEROGI 
EMPANADA SPANGRAM: DUMPLINGS My rating: Moderate My score: 3 hints 

These are all things that I like to eat, so you'd have thought that I'd have 
flown through today's Strands  but no, I needed three hints to complete it. 
The shame! 

In my defense, the first one was required because the theme clue of 'All 
wrapped up' wasn't so obvious that I knew what was needed. It gave me GYOZA, 
at which point I was away and was able to get SAMOSA too. But there I 
stalled. I couldn't think of any other 'wrapped foods', so needed one hint 
for WONTON and one for PIEROGI. I got EMPANADA, but only after about 20 
minutes of trying to make the letters assemble into an actual word. Not my 
finest hour.
