Paid Members tiger_rick Posted November 3, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted November 3, 2018 (edited) I didn't think it was bad. It genuinely comes from Japan so I'd factor at least a fiver as postage. Will see if she actually eats the stuff though! Edited November 3, 2018 by tiger_rick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rey_Piste Posted March 17, 2019 Share Posted March 17, 2019 Whilst I was way my friend who lives in Cornwall is a total middle class Good Life wanker, but he make some fucking amazing spinach and ricotta cannelloni that he made from scratch. When I mean made from scratch he made his own ricotta from the milk from his goats and Spinach from his garden. The only thing in it that wasn't collected from his land were the flour for the pasta and the Parmesan. I don't have any photos though because I was knackered from lumberjacking it all day.

SuperBacon Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 I didn’t know where else to put this. I fucking hate Peanut Butter. Detest it. So of course in a moment of madness I bought Kellogg’s Crunchy Nut Peanut Butter Clusters, as it was on offer. Absolutely awful.  Now I have a box of cereal that I don’t want, the kids don’t want, and have to eat as I can’t stand waste. First world problems, it’s ruined my bloody week.

Paid Members waters44 Posted August 10, 2021 Paid Members Share Posted August 10, 2021 For the last few months I’ve signed up to the snacksurprise.com monthly box. The product is amazing, but the service is so slow and shit that I’ve cancelled it (I’m still waiting on a box that should have been sent end of June) Does anyone subscribe to any other boxes that are decent and arrive on time? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fish based snacks) which they left, but I was impressed by the amount they got for the price. They keep badgering me about a sub box so I'd be keen to find out what that one is like. Is it the one where it's a different country every month? I signed up to Too Good To Go and picked up my first "magic bag" today. From an artisan bakery shop locally (which I could never afford) and for £3 I got 5x croissants, 3x scones, 2x cupcakes and these absolute beasts of doughnuts which I think are £3 each themselves. Apologies for the crap photo. Be interested to see what you get from Greggs, Nero, Starbucks etc. Reckon it might be slightly better as would probably include savoury food too. I bet in London it's also better as the choice is greater, but yeah have a look if you want to make a saving. Stops food waste too.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DavidB6937 Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 Thanks for the recommendation. Not much in my local area but loads near my work in London. Will definitely give it a go when I'm back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members air_raid Posted August 15, 2021 Paid Members Share Posted August 15, 2021 What’s going on with turmeric? Why have so many TV chefs started pronouncing it as if it started with the first three letters of Tuesday rather than the first three letters of turmeric?

I’ve always heard and pronounced it as ory-gano now I’m starting to hear or-eh-gano more often. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe people think they’ll sound more cultured falling in line with pronunciation of (let’s be fair) culinarily superior countries.

King Coconut Posted August 15, 2021 Share Posted August 15, 2021 The Italian argument holds no water because that's how you say it in Italian and we're talking about English. That would require us to pronounce Volkswagen follksvargun, but we don't because we're not Bosch. Producers should be telling these people that they'll be needing one more take with the correct English please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
