Bacon or Sausage

[FOX Franks]

No right thinking Italian would put sausages with pasta.

Curry wurst? Absolutely disgusting. I remember excitedly buying this in Germany and being utterly stunned that people claimed this as a national dish. Every element is wrong.

You've had a mare here

 

[FOX Franks]

It all comes down to variety.

Is bacon pleasant? Yes of course. Does is smell heavenly? Absolutely.

But sausages…. Chorizo, black pudding, Italian sausages seasoned with fennel, the British banger, Toulouse sausage cassoulet.

Mmmmm, cassoulet. With a confit canard leg sticking out. Noice.

And you are Pork Pie Fox!
Pork pies are one of the greatest food items ever devised.

Stilton works ok for me, as that’s fairly strong.

Stopped reading here.

They're just bastardised dishes. It's like chicken and pasta, just made up nonsense food.

When asked what I miss about living in the UK I always reply, cheese and pork pies. When I went back a couple of years ago I went to M&S at the airport and bought a packet of mini pork pies, which I proceeded to eat while driving to my sister's house.

Anyone else imagining this like Alan Partridge driving to Dundee bare foot eating Toblerone??


Can't say I'm much of a fan of cat food in pastry though.

If you like pork pie (the food not the poster), try dipping it in vinegar OMG.

Aren't all dishes made up?

I think Mary Beard said that Roman peasants only ate Bread, olive oil and salted fish so presumably they’re the only authentic Italian dishes.

Odd when people complain of made up words, names, holidays etc. They didn’t grow in the ****in wild did they?

Errrm. Now that sounds not right. I Must Try.

 

[camberwell fox]

It’s orgasmic

 

[SJN-Fox]

Try Cadbury’s chocolate fingers dipped in branston pickle. Out of this world.

 

[tedfoxxx]

**** me what’s next?

Piccalilli on a Jaffa cake?

Milk in your Bovril?

Tabasco in your porridge?

 

[SJN-Fox]

Hmmmm. Not a big lover of piccalilli if I’m honest.

When I was a kid I used to eat dry weetabix, with butter spread over them and then sugar sprinkled on top. It’s kind of surprising that it took me so long to realise that I have very little sense of taste of food.

So are you anosmic?

Does it effect how you taste spice or strong alcohol?

I’m not totally without taste or smell, but they are very reduced. As I said earlier, I couldn’t tell if milk was going off by smelling it or tasting it, only really if it comes out the bottle in lumps.

I do tend to put spice on a lot of things as it helps give things flavour that would otherwise, to me, just taste the same as many other things.

What caused it or have you always been like that?

Feel free to tell me to **** off, I’m just curious.

It’s no probs. Took me a while to realise, to be honest, as I didn’t know any different. No event that cause it as such, just always been that way.

Buttered weetabix drizzled with golden syrup was a proper treat breakfast when I was a kid.
