    ALPHABEST: Pluma Moos. It's really good either plain or mixed with stuff. Fruity and tasty.

    ALPHABAD: Plums, dried. Ok, so they're called prunes but hey, I couldn't think of one and these remind me of eating beetles. I can explain it, they actually taste pretty good, but I can't get over the idea that I'm crunching into a beetle with no legs. BLEGHGHGHGHG. Even now I'm cringing slightly.

    BEST AND BAD OF PO

    Alphabest: Potatoes - best form either chips or mash.

    Alphabad: Pomegranate. Or Pollock. Usually the fish in 'value' supermarket brands.

    ALPHABEST: FLORENTINES. Need I reiterate my love of these things? I'd marry them if I could. Ok, that's a lie, but I do like them, like a hellavalot. Tesco's bakery - 70p for pure delight. Click image for larger version.

    ALPHABAD: Flumps. 10p for three unfulfilling bites. Disappointment made to look colourful and fun that's what you are.

    Best: Kabob (shish). It's fast food but at the same time it's proper meat and tastes authentic unlike most meats in takeaways. Wrapped in pitta with salad it makes for a balanced and reasonably healthy meal.

    Worst: Kabob (doner). Junk meat, fatty, salty, dodgy texture, bits of ________ in the meat, hygiene issues....why is it consumed so much.

    BEST and WORST of:

    ALPHABEST: RIDGED CRISPS.
    Not crinkled; that's too soft. Proper sharp FLAVOUR TRENCH ridges in my crisps!! They're the secret to GIGANTIC CRUNCH, MEGA FLAVOUR!

    ALPHABAD: RIB (KING).
    The chip shop leper. I don't know what's scarier; the fact it's a boneless, formed "mini rack" patty, or that it tastes like a juicy sponge...


    HOW ABOUT DR?

    ALPHABAD: Dressings. I find they nearly ALWAYS ruin salads. Salad not soup!!!

    ALPHABEST: Dried fruit. Yeah, it's loaded with sugar blah blah blah but I find either by itself or mixed in cereal/desserts/snacks it adds a really nice touch.

    ALPHABEST: PUTTANESCA.
    It's like the most garish, outlandish Italian food flavour set on earth, and it works so well because of that!! Plus it translates as "whores pasta" teehee.

    ALPHABAD: PUMPKIN.
    Fun to carve, but utterly rubbish to eat. Like, utterly pants. Not as a soup, or as a pie, and OH GOD. SEEDS.


    HOW ABOUT LI?

    BEST: Lion bars. Ah, so good. Been around since I can remember but I really dont buy them enough. They're so..filling. And substantial. Better than all these flimsy bars nowadays!

    BAD: Liquorice. I hate you. K? The end. p.s. Fruit salads > black jacks.

    YA

    ALPHABAD: YABLOKO MOKO.
    I had an obsession with trying this after playing Metal Gear Solid 3. Turns out... Tastes like 3rd world suffering.

    ALPHABEST: YAM ROSTI.
    Sweet potato... Grated... Fried. Tell me that isn't sexy food right there.

    How about...

    ALPHABEST: Ghiradeli Sublime white vanilla squares. White chocolate. In tiny squares. wafer thin and melts-in-your-mouth. It's a crime not to consider this the best :P

    ALPHABAD: Ghee. Icky icky i'd rather have butter, thank you very much :P

    Okay, hmmm... LE?

    Best: Lemon with green tea. Counters the below par taste of green tea.

    Worst: Lemon juice (plj's). When I bought this I thought I was drinking oil.

    Best and Worst of Oa?

    Re: FOOD AND DRINK: The Alphabad, The Alphabest!
    ALPHABEST: OATS & MORE.
    I was going to again sing the praises of the mighty gluten intolerent Weetabix saviour, the Oatibix, but instead I'll say the wonderful medley that is Oats&More. With crunchier flakes than I've ever encountered, almonds, and those devilishly addictive sugarbomb "clusters" this might be masquerading as a "dad cereal" but trust me on this... It's all flavour!!

    ALPHABAD: OASIS (ANY INVOLVING POMEGRANATE OR BLACKCURRANT).
    Oasis can't nail these flavours at all. I know Oasis is more "Thirst quench Water drink" than "juice", but why must these specific flavours make me do the ACK ACK face?


    How about AR?

    ALPHABEST: FUNGUS.
    I love aaaaall mushrooms, and even the kinda tough lemony oyster mushroom has it's merits. I eat at least one dish featuring mushrooms every day!!

    ALPHABAD: FUDGESICLES.
    watching so many American kids shows growing up, they all coveted fudgesicles as this incredible freezer confection. When I finally tried them... Hey, disappointmuch? Imagine someone tried making toffee ice poles at home with the texture of freezing tablet. Ugh.


    How about SC?

    BEST: Scampi fries. I wouldn't have thought fish flavoured crisps would come off well but these are delicious. Pub snacks.

    WORST: Scones. Mostly too dry and generally boring. I could think of so much more better compliments with a cup of tea, so why are scones quite popular...

    Best and Worse of Es
