    ALPHABEST: TACOS. With mexican chicken, not beef. I love the mixture of cucumber/tomato, cheese, sauces/toppings, chicken, lettuce and warm taco shell. Plus you get to decide the order, and everyone just helps themselves. A proper family dinner in my house! And everyone loves it, because, how can you not?!

    ALPHABAD: Tap Water. Everyone rants and raves about how 'refreshing' it is, and how lovely it is. I'm still sticking with juice or Pepsi. I want flavour. Try describing the taste of water to someone, you can't. Hence; no flavour.

    Alphabest: Spag bol. Perhaps too mainstream, but still a dish that I enjoy cooking AND eating Also with mushrooms, onions and pasta sauce you're looking at 3 veg portions per dish!

    Alphabad: Spam. Need I say more...

    ALPHABEST: ANCHOVIES. Because they have the potential to make your dish GREAT. I love these things on pizzas (though I rarely find people who share this view...), and in pasta, and in bruschetta. Hell they're just good, end of.

    ALPHABAD: 'Ants on a log'. Wiki: Ants on a log is a snack made by spreading peanut butter on celery and placing raisins on top.

    No, I haven't tried it, but I can still call it bad. Anything trying to look like insects on a stick is not great in my view.

    BEST:


    I don't think they're sold in the UK which is a shame because they're a flavoursome icecream sandwiched between chocolate cookie dough making for a great combo and they're nice and easy to eat.

    WORST:
    Iced tea. I don't see any redeeming qualities in it.

    Jeeeeze this was hard...

    ALPHABEST: Sirloin steak. Because its a hunka meat, and what's not to love about that.

    ALPHABAD: silly string cheese. The spray can stuff, because I cant think of anything actually beginning with si and this cheese tastes awful, fake cheese crap, even novelty value can't dilute that taste.

    Alphabest: Grape Juice. In fact, all Grape juices and sodas have an insanely addictive effect on me; Welch's cartons get downed in minutes in my flat.

    Alphabad: Gorgonzola. The only thing that should smell like a wet dog farting on stinky socks should be said farty sock dog. And even then I'd be hard pressed to find the pros to merit having said combination of items around.

    Jeeeze, this was a hard one, there's SO much choice.

    ALPHABAD: Feta Cheese. It's got this weird grainy texture.

    ALPHABEST: Ah, this is tough. Frosties, Fudge, FroYo, Fruitcake, Florentines..WHAT TO CHOOSE. I'll restrict it to savoury, and say FISH. Because let's face it, a world without tuna and crab meat in a tin, fish sticks and all those propa' pieces of fish (seabass, salmon etc) made wonderfully for supper. You can't beat fish, you just can't.

    WORST: Flame grilled liver. Really don't like liver.

    Yeah most people have moved to two letters Fusion, just didn't wanna confuse you

    ALPHABEST: Weetabix! Because weetabix rules. Epic in a bowl, hot OR cold.

    ALPHABAD: Welsh Rarebit. Why eat a rabbit when you can have beef or pork or something. It was gonna be Weetos, simply because they don't 'turn the milk chocolatey' like the magic that is coco pops, but it's not worthy of the title ALPHABAD.

    Best and bad of: WA

    Ahhh autocorrect damn it! Welsh Rabbit - sorry folks!
    My grandad tries to give us it every time we visit him in Wales. They seem crazy about the stuff. Maybe it's all the fields and watching too much Watership Down.

    Best: Wall's Twister. Colourful, summery, creamy; delicious.

    Worst: Wall's feast. Don't like the dark chocolate flavour plus the central chocolate part is too much for an icecream.

    Best: Napolina Tomatoes, plummed. THE BEST when it comes to toms in a can. You can taste the quality, and you get more tomatoes/less juice for your buck.

    Worst: Nachos. I find them so dry and unappealing, and most people are mad about them. Even a dip can't save them. I much prefer softer things like tortilla wraps, naan, pittas etc..crisps/nachos don't appeal to me.

    ALPHABEST: DIRT AND WORM PIE. Childhood favourite. I bloody loved this dessert, ordered EVER time I went to TGI's. Chocolate ice cream, chocolate curls, chocolate syrup and gummy worms. Total crap but SO good.

    ALPHABAD: Digestives, the plain ones. Simply because if I want a cookie/biscuit, I want something good, with chocolate or something, that won't rape my mouth of all moisture. Who wants a biscuit you have to add butter or jam or something too.
