Didn't want to go there Allan...literally !

:-D :-D :-D

Or anywhere else either.

Oh, eyed forgotten that point :-D

Yes don't touch your eyes after kneading it Allan

What's a bread-like chilli, and how do you grow them?

Do they knead any special treatment? :-D

What about the food they serve in a bowl made of bread...like Chilli....do you eat the bowl as well ?!

Shelly!! :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D

"I'll have a cup of tea in my fist" - an old expression of a bygone era.

I'd like to expand on the saying but I dislike being ridiculed in public. So, I'll remain shtum for a while.

Ah, but we all died of printing ink poisoning when chips were served in newspaper didn't we?

I am a vege and I do like to know if there is protein in what I am eating and what the protein is. I find that it is when I have not eaten enough protein that I start wanting to eat muck.

A bit of newsprint added to the flavour Bob ;-) :-D

I absolutely dislike food served onto cold plates.............

as for fish n chips, I use a plate, but fold the paper to make a cushion between the plate and food..........stays warmer that way but best of all....................
doesn't taste the same as when served in newspaper....LOL

I have now noticed that the word 'protein' is now creeping into some TV Cooking shows and into more general usage.

Chicken, pork, beef, lamb etc have now been reduced to that one word.

I don't think that I will order 'protein and chips' at the local chippie, neither will I be ordering a protein curry at the local Chinese; I like to know which protein I'm eating

I still can't get me head round that soup in a basket malarkey

In some hotels in France we have eaten breakfast (if you can call a continental breakfast that) off paper straight off the table. Apparently that is considered normal.

Another thing I hate is a meal, such as meat and two veg, served in a bowl! :-( :-( Bowls are for liquidy stuff and it is almost impossible to use a knife and fork in one.

John and Greg on Masterchef don't like it either. I have heard them, on more than one occasion, asking why something is in a bowl, when it should be on a plate.

I had whitebait in an enamel mug once.
Then realised my cats had, for years, been given really trendy (before their time) food bowls - they're enamel (white with the blue edging) :-D :-D :-D

The old joke is where Manuel the waiter asks customers if anything is all right?

I hate the veg hiding behind the pie bowl.....what fun is there if you can't hide the veg you don't want to eat.....now that was childhood.....eat your sprouts they were only cooked for a week what's wrong with you !!

Just give me a normal plate with well cooked food and enough of it....none of these baskets or mini versions of things and charging me ten times the price.
