    The latter is worse; that's like ONE THIRD of a KFC box meal!

    Which is a greater evil?

    A ban on chocolate,

    Or

    A ban on crisps?

    Re: FOOD AND DRINK: The GREATER of Two Evils!
    A ban on chocolate is so much worse! Where would us girls be during that certain time without chocolate? The sweet brown substance makes everything better after feeling tired, upset or anything else really! Crisps can just...well roll over for choc!

    GREATER EVIL:

    No more beef in the world

    OR

    No more chicken in the world

    Re: FOOD AND DRINK: The GREATER of Two Evils!
    I think extinction of chicken would be a greater evil; I personally prefer beef but I really think chicken would affect more people...

    WHICH EVIL IS GREATER:

    SOMEONE SAYING DOMINOS IS THE GREATEST TRADITIONAL PIZZA OUT THERE

    OR

    SOMEONE SAYING MCDONALDS IS THE SINGLE BEST BURGER IN EXISTENCE

    Re: FOOD AND DRINK: The GREATER of Two Evils!
    Hate both but the former is the greater evil, just because I only had my first one fairly recently, I was looking forward to it so much because of all the hype and then... and then... huge disappointment.

    Greater evil:

    Going to the store to buy your favourite thing, see on the packet 'brand new recipe', get it home and it's horrible and completely ruined.

    or

    Going to the store to buy your favourite thing and find out that it's been discontinued altogether.

    The first is worse because it just spoils your idea of the product. With the later, YOU CAN TAKE MY PRODUCT, YOU CAN'T TAKE MY MEMORIES.

    which is worse: too much butter in a sandwich or too much bread in ratio to filling in a sandwich

    Re: FOOD AND DRINK: The GREATER of Two Evils!
    Too much butter is EVILER. It fuses with the filling, especially if coleslaw is in the equation... But you can always rip some bread off.

    Which evil is greater:

    NO CHIPS FOR A MONTH

    OR

    NO CRISPS FOR A MONTH?

    The former. Chips are more ingrained into my diet plus I'd slay crisps over them.

    GREATER EVIL:

    Sandwich fillings falling out

    OR

    Pizza toppings falling off

    PIZZA TOPPINGS. OH GOD.

    The absolute DIRE CHEESE DRAG. one bite into it, and all the cheese draaaags off, leaving your fingers tomato sauce drenched as you try to "reapply" it. By contrast, a bit of cucumber or whatever falling off yer piece is NOTHING!!

    GREATER EVIL BETWEEN:

    BUTTERING ONLY THE MIDDLE OF THE TOAST, LEAVING A PERIMETER OF DRYYYYY

    OR

    BEING TOO VIOLENT IN SPREADING THE TOAST, RESULTING IN MALFORMED TOAST WITH BIG IRREGULAR BUTTER BLOBBAGE

    Re: FOOD AND DRINK: The GREATER of Two Evils!
    The later is more evil, because I don't mind dry toast if it's not too overdone!

    which is worse: hard caramel getting stuck in your teeth or hard sweets (drumsticks etc) getting stuck in your teeth

    The latter, I had a wham bar last week (first time in years) and it got stuck to my teeth very unpleasantly and difficult to budge.

    GREATER EVIL:

    A cap of ONE tea bag per day

    OR

    A cap of chips once a week

    Re: FOOD AND DRINK: The GREATER of Two Evils!
    The tea limit is worse. It's my legal right as a British person to drink all the tea I wanna drink. And chip caps would probably do me a favour. Plus, I don't eat them often as I don't bother with oven chips, I just treat myself to proper CHIPPY chips on the odd occasion.

    greater evil: Life without fruit or life without chocolate

    Re: FOOD AND DRINK: The GREATER of Two Evils!
    The greater evil is DEFINITELY life without chocolate (even if it would do me a favour.) I can't even go a day without chocolate, let alone life!

    Greater evil:

    Going to your favourite restaurant and being full before you go so you can barely eat anything

    or

    Saving yourself all day for a new restaurant, get there starving, and the food is really disappointing

    Re: FOOD AND DRINK: The GREATER of Two Evils!
    If you're 'starving' you won't be too fussed about quality so the former is the greater evil.

    GREATER EVIL:

    Meat starter before a meat main course

    OR

    More than one type of meat in a main course

    The first one. If your starter is almost the same as your main course that would (at least for me) ruin the point of the starter. The taste of the meat from the main course wouldn't be as sharpening to my taste buds.

    Greater evil:

    Finding out that you're now allergic to your favourite dish

    Or

    Or realising that your favourite brand of a particular food is no longer in production?

    Re: FOOD AND DRINK: The GREATER of Two Evils!
    Allergy would be worse because it's STILL THERE. HAUNTING YOU. EAAAAT ME. oh wait, YOU CAN'T!! *CACKLE*

    Which evil is greater:

    BEING OFFERED A CRISP/CHOC BY A BEGRUDGING PAL WHO THEN HAS A GRUMPY FACE WHEN YOU DON'T REFUSE

    or

    OFFERING YOUR PAL A CRISP/CHOC AND HE/SHE TAKES A SMALL HANDFUL

    Re: FOOD AND DRINK: The GREATER of Two Evils!
    Definetly the first one! If you offer me food, don't be annoyed when I say yes! Why did you offer in the first place if you didn't want to? Annoying! The latter is fine, you offer your friend some and they take some (albeit a little too much) but that's fine....you can get them back later for it....-evil laugh-

    GREATER EVIL:

    Your friend offering to make you a meal, but they take ages so you're starving when you finally eat!

    OR

    Your friend offernig to make you a meal, but it tastes horrible and you have to pretend to like it.

    Re: FOOD AND DRINK: The GREATER of Two Evils!
    I'm going to alter my response;

    the former isn't too bad because if you're anything like me you quite enjoy getting insanely ravenous prior to a meal; moreover I equally enjoy rubbing it in my mate's face that they're slowpokes.


    "just putting the veg on now...... .....

    ....

    ....in ten minutes."


    WHICH IS THE GREATER EVIL;

    HAVING A HOUSE PARTY, WAKING TO FIND SOME RANDOM FRIENDS OF FRIENDS EATING ALL YOUR CEREAL, MILK AND BACON

    OR

    YOUR FLATMATES EAT ALL YOUR EXPENSIVE BRANDED PRODUCTS, SAY THEYLL REPLACE IT, AND WHEN YOU GET HOME YOU FIND THEYVE BOUGHT SUPER VALUE WHEATY BISKS, ECONOMY COLA AND SAVERTASTIC COOKED HAM?

    The second is more evil. I can understand drunken hangover munchies, but the later would just be insulting. Don't you dare replace my napolina pasta with smart price shells.
