Ok, I admit, I have no idea why there are carrots in the top left hand corner. Is there a clue there with his name being Mark Inthesea? Is that a type of carrot?

Re: General Chit Chat
That's an oxymoron. How can anybody possibly make a cake out of carrots. I once got chicken served with plums, anybody gives me a cake made out of carrots would get the same reaction they did the day my chicken arrived with plums.Bruce Rioja wrote:Because presumably it's a fecking carrot cake!Lost Leopard Spot wrote:Ah, I C now.

Re: General Chit Chat
I have a similar attitude there. Cakes made out of cheese! Ugh. (although whenever I say this to the missus, she goes and points out to me that that's what she thinks about sausages made out of blood, the big puddin').Bruce Rioja wrote:What about cheesecake?Lost Leopard Spot wrote: That's an oxymoron.

Re: General Chit Chat
That's another thing: she got hold of a list, out of a Sunday newspaper, of these superfoods and suddenly I'm getting this stuff in everything. Like last night I had stir fry chicken with kale, day before it was bread and butter pudding with medjool dates.Bruce Rioja wrote:Ahh, but black pudding is now a 'superfood' like kale, somehow, apparently!Lost Leopard Spot wrote:I have a similar attitude there.

to be fair - i don't reckon stit fry chicken is probably better with kale in it than it is with bread and butter pudding and medjool dates in it....Lost Leopard Spot wrote:That's another thing: she got hold of a list, out of a Sunday newspaper, of these superfoods and suddenly I'm getting this stuff in everything.

Re: General Chit Chat
Food was hard to come by after the war so we had to eat Bury black puddings and UCP tripe. I remember both being disgusting though it might have been the way we cooked them. However, I'm certain that kale was then fodder for cattle, not for human consumption.Bruce Rioja wrote:Ahh, but black pudding is now a 'superfood' like kale, somehow, apparently!Lost Leopard Spot wrote:I have a similar attitude there.

Re: General Chit Chat
You eejit, I meant one day I had bread and butter pudding with dates, the next day I had stir fry chicken and kale, not that one day I had stir fry chicken with bread and butter pudding and dates and then the next day I had stir fry chicken with kale. Although I did have cod in a white sauce and petit pois with my bread and butter pudding and medjool dates, separately mind.thebish wrote:to be fair - i don't reckon stit fry chicken is probably better with kale in it than it is with bread and butter pudding and medjool dates in it....Lost Leopard Spot wrote:That's another thing: she got hold of a list, out of a Sunday newspaper, of these superfoods and suddenly I'm getting this stuff in everything.

Black pudding and tripe are wonderful foods. Kale might as well remain cattle fodder as far as I'm concerned.Montreal Wanderer wrote:

Re: General Chit Chat
You may wish to advise Mrs Spot on the kale front. Whack it on a baking tray, drizzle olive oil over it, sprinkle turmeric on it, salt & pepper - in the oven for 10 mins at 200 geg C, comes out like crispy seaweed.
