Filthy Food

So then.

Last night was an emotionally and physically draining experience for me...

Pouring rain, God awful performance and the realisation that deep shame has an exponential effect of wind resistance. In all a bad do all round.

So then - an immediate cup of Tea with sugar when I got in. I WARN YOU NOW. Tea with sugar is more addictive than crack cocaine. Do not "give this a go" unless you have staunch constitution and a puritanical strip a mile wide. if not BAM before you know it you are mainlining Tate and Lyle and on a Government sponsored Sweetex programme. Do not say I didn't warn you.....

Now. To scoff.

I'm basically down to store cupboard essentials and am in the need for filthy dirty dirty food......

I'm thinking potatoes - fried - yes that's it.

I roasted a duck some time back and nothing in God's Earth tastes better than anything fried in duck's fat - big dollop of that, sliced spuds now in frying pan sizzling away....

Garlic - Yes garlic

Bacon, result - back of the fridge cut into strips - in with the spuds.....

Inspiration! Eggs - four eggs beaten - big fat spud bacon omellette. Cheese! All the Food groups. Cheese Spuds Bacon. Cheese in with eggs....

Eggs in with bacon - couple of minutes - a high risk big pan lid flipping action - couple more minutes serve with mayo and Ketchup.......

Beat that commuter foodies

    Hardly filthy - it's not fried for a start.......

    Take an F.

    If you added fried cheese on the top then we could talk..

    You have let yourself down very badly and need to reconsider your "alternative life choices". I'm going for a lump of cake and mug of coffee just to get this terrible taste of lettuce out of my mouth.

    That's just wrong.

    A bacon and egg sandwich on white sliced with two hash browns and red sauce.

    That's filthy (and my Friday victory breakfast actually)..

    I discovered a while back that a bacon french toast sandwich is nearly heart attack territory

    Filth scale High.

    If you'd added a pile of baked beans (simmered long time gone a bit mushy) as a side "dipping" order we would be in the High Class Hooker zone of food......

    However "french" needs to be gaurded against in case anyone comes on here talking about baguettes or something hideous.....

  • I hate you all with a passion that others can only dream of!

    All I have left to get me home is some rather squished malt loaf. Pah!

    Oh god! The hunger... :cry:

    Oh god! The hunger... :cry:

    I share your pain.....

    I've just had a banana and frankly it wasn't fried / wrapped in ham and it's fruit.

    My life's crap.

    I'm thinking that tonight might be Pad Thai and Chicken Penang takeaway - that's Felicity Kendal in the "Good life" - sans wellies.

    fried eggy bread sound better?

    baked beans actually make me sick, thus negating the effects of cr@ppy food

    Greg,

    while I am full of admiration of your commitment to keeping cardiac surgeons in business I have to pick you up on something:

    one word -

    tartiflette
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tartiflette

    that's a whole bunch of hookers in a mayfair basement (ED. that'll be enough in the interests of good taste and our legal bills)

  • Tartiflette: very poplar at French Markets in the UK, and at the Christmas markets around Europe.

    Yum :D

    Take 2 slices of the thickest sliced white plastic bread

    spread with butter, marge, WHY

    Take 4 fish fingers, grill appropriately

    Lay slices of cheese on top, melt onto fish fingers

    Place cheesy fish fingers on slice of bread

    Apply tomato ketchup and mayo liberally

    consume avec tasse de the and some crisps

    possibly repeat

    Afterwards, sit in near comatose state in front of telly, preferably watching something involving aerobic stress... :twisted:

    It's just a hill. Get over it.

    Sans wellies? Sans everything

    Actually, I'll pass and take a nice side order of Tara Fitzgerald. Covered in maple syrup.

    I used to work around the corner from a Pub, whose lunchtime specialty was fishfinger sandwiches, jumbo sized fishfingers in fresh white bread doorsteps, awesome :D

    Nah, I'm a bloke, but "in touch with my feminine side" (blame it on having 3 sisters)

    And I bet that's really put the mockers on your kinky little fantasy.

    Tara's mine. I saw her first (don't tell Mrs SecretSam) :roll: :oops: :lol:
