Re: Food and Drink: You're the WORST Example!Roast dinners, for several reasons. The sunday roast and xmas dinners are family/people orientated occassions more than any other meal, so if you're used to this cultural norm it may feel depressing tucking into one by yourself. Secondly it requires reltaively labourious and lenghty preparations thus falling all on ONE person in this case. Thirdly there's no economies of scale, and if you have a leg of lamb cooked are you gonna eat non-stop lamb over the next 48 hours...!

Re: Food and Drink: You're the WORST Example!I hate when people put butter in a Peanut Butter sandwich. It's like DUDE, peanut BUTTER. Trust me, it's just as good, if not better, without the butter on first. I think people are just so used to putting butter in sandwiches they're not willing to risk it, but I find butter AND PB aren't a great mix. PB is best left just with bread; we don't want no threesome here.

Re: Food and Drink: You're the WORST Example!I answered this before with these, I think, but I need to rant again, so...
THEY'RE HARDLY EVEN BISCUITS AT ALL. But apparently decadent beyond belief, right? NAW. Rubbish. £2 for the most posh waste of cupboard space ever. SO MUCH PACKAGING TOO. 2 cm diameter of truffley wufley swirled shortcake white chocolate Belgian FROO FROO.

Re: Food and Drink: You're the WORST Example!CORN ON THE COB. ****ing hell, what a kerfuffle for a bit of corn. Just get it from a tin man, the taste isn't all THAT different. Plus, it's kinda hard to eat it without looking like a total savage. I'm sure it clings to teeth gaps for dear life, relentless corn.

Re: Food and Drink: You're the WORST Example!Salads! Whereas a sandwich or a wrap or even sushi is good on the go, salads are too fussy. Even pasta salads are better, but trying to eat salad on the go is a nightmare. Sure you get a fork but walking and pronging is not something easily done. Message to self: Leaf the salad if you're in a rush.

Re: Food and Drink: You're the WORST Example!That grim egg and cress mix they put in sandwiches. Are you even egg? BRING BACK THE REAL EGG, YOU SMELLY IMPOSTOR! Too much soft in a sandwich too, give me some bite. LEAF IT OUTTTT.

Re: Food and Drink: You're the WORST Example!The KIT KAT SENSES CARAMEL and by extension KIT KAT CHUNKY CARAMEL.
What the hell is this supposed to be?? It's a weird brown fudgey nonsense that utterly insults caramel!!
WORST EXAMPLE OF ADDING MAYO WHERE IT'S UNNECESSARY? -

Re: Food and Drink: You're the WORST Example!Such a tough call between people who eat pizza with mayo, mayo with roast dinner, or salads. But the winner has to be salads. Great, so I now can't taste ANY other components of my dinner, because you've murdered it with mayo. WAIT. Scratch that.
NEW WINNER: SANDWICHES. What was I thinking?! HOW many lovely sandwiches have been RUINED by the mayo monster?! It's like ooh, tuna and cucumber; wait, no, look at it, it's practically living in an ocean of mayo. Ooh, a BLT, that'd be nice for a change. Nope, they've decided simple isn't effective, and added HALF A JAR of mayo. You ain't Cadbury, we don't need a glass and a half of pure eggyness. Leave us alone damnit!

Re: Food and Drink: You're the WORST Example!
The DISGUSTING RECENT TREND I've noticed of SUMMER BERRY ORZO/PASTA SALADS.
What the **** is this even supposed to be, a dessert, a main, A JOKE?! But local Stirling eateries are now doing strawberry capreze pastas too!!
JUST BECAUSE IT'S SUMMER DOESN'T MEAN YOU CAN PUT STRAWBERRY IN MUNTER-FUNKING EVERYTHING!!

Re: Food and Drink: You're the WORST Example!Krave. It's like a magic trick I swear; you had moisture in ya mouth, and now ya don't! And your fingers turn into some powder infested chaos disaster zone. Don't touch ANYTHING. They're even worse than Sugar Puffs for their messiness, though dry Sugar Puffs are not something I'd recommend. Those puffs need milk!

Re: Food and Drink: You're the WORST Example!
THESE WASTES OF TIME.
Seriously, Kipling produce some WEIRD flavours, like Sindel Cake Slices and the bizarre halloween Orange Pumpkin slice, but they're at least INTERESTING experiments. CLUB cake bars are an absolute disappointment, as they are literally just CAKE AND CHOCOLATE ON IT, which is in no way definitive Club.
What makes the TWIX SLICE the worst, however, is their DECEIT. They lead you to believe they are in ANY WAY Twix-related. But what they are, is actually a SHAMEFUL repackaging of their truly lacklustre Millionaire's Shortbread (the kind with the dry, sandy shortcake, almost no caramel, and waxy, sub-par chocolate). They literally changed nothing. It's akin to, say, Kipling taking his Country Slices and branding them as "Go Ahead Raisin Cake Bars".

Re: Food and Drink: You're the WORST Example!As its not 'a fry up' I won't say black pudding because I don't ever have that, technicalities and whatnot... So from my fry up, probably the mushrooms, purely because they all fall out and it's like a MISSION to keep them in. And why ruin good mushrooms with bread?

Re: Food and Drink: You're the WORST Example!I dunno overly loads about fillings here but the worst tortellini dish I've ever witnessed is Feta cheese tortellini served with olives. F U OLIVES. I have nothing against Feta but I wouldnt class it as good tasty cheese. Cheddar and feta is purely no comparison. It's all greek to me.

Re: Food and Drink: You're the WORST Example!I find eating anything majorly acidic comes back to bite in the morning. WHY DID I CHOOSE FRUIT? Midnight snacks are better without the reflux hangover. Fruit is a poor poor choice, plus, who wakes up craving fruit? It's all about fun foods at midnight. Don't try and be healthy; Rookie error. gimme cake, or toast, or cereal.

Re: Food and Drink: You're the WORST Example!Considering it's GIGA SUGAR... Has to be when someone tries to"ultimate up" meringue desserts. Like toffee pavlovas. PURE SUGAR WITH PURE SUGAR? PUT IT AWAY HESTON.
PS, don't you just love how we're all getting that pseudo cynical sarcasm going on Dani, Melissa?

Today, in town:
'Do you want a sausage roll before we go in?'
10.30am.
And by 'sausage roll', she meant Gregg's.

Re: Food and Drink: You're the WORST Example!Smoked haddock and a poached egg. It's fantastic to be eating yourself as a late breakfast, but 6am, smelly fish? Mum, PLEASE..just have a bowl of corn flakes woman.

Re: Food and Drink: You're the WORST Example!My mum made samosas one morning because she couldn't sleep. Waking up at like 8am to the smell of mince beef, onions and peas was not entirely pleasant. And smelling like it for the rest of the day no matter what I did? Even less pleasant.
EDIT: The chilli/mexican flavour beans. I really did NOT enjoy them.
