    WTF is capers?

    Anywho.

    Seeds. Why do people eat seeds straight from the bag, like sunflower seeds. Buy a bag of minstrels you cheapskate!

    Seeds in bread. WTF, seeded bread. WTF. Bread should be white, medium cut and preferably toasted (though I accept brown bread is healthier).

    And while I'm on the subject of bread. What the f*ck is 'Rye bread' is it just ponce for "Look how different I am, I'm eating cool fancy bread.. Ooo I'm better than you in my skinny jeans, ripped shirt and greasy hair... I'm from Shoreditch with my cool fancy rye bread. I went into the shop and said 'Rye bread' for my salami sandwich now everyone in the shop knows I'm cool."

    I'm going to log-off for 5mins, I've angered myself.

    I feel slightly turned on by the sheer level of masculinity. "I must carry my woman over my shoulder into the bedroom, make love to her, kissing my bicep as I go. Then while she is basking in the glow I'll draw paintings on the wall and then dance around a makeshift fire!"

    I've thought some more about my steak position.

    If you take your steak anything other than rare you are sus. The more cooked and wrong you take it the worse you are.

    Frankly if you have it well done you are queeg of the highest order and should be forced to inhale it.

    Glad we cleared that up.

    Now then who said they didn't like kebabs - light the torches villagers and collect the farm implements - we are having us an outrage march

    I would take my Ribeye medium rare in order to let the fat render, all other cuts are taken rare.

    Nowt wrong with having your meat burned.

    I liked the burnt, charcoal/carbon taste.

    I like the consistency of well done food. Admittingly I probably would have had CP's meat raw... :shock: no wait... I mean cooked medium

  • Oh come now, liver is great. Especially calves liver.

    I'm glad others are coming with me on the inappropriate fruit. Parma ham and melon? Way to ruin good ham and good melon. :roll:

    I've never tried tongue, it's on the list, but tripe cooked right is lovely - it's like a flavour sponge, but doesn't really have its own strong flavour.

    But well-done meat is a crime. In fact, you could probably commit a crime with it, using it as a cosh.

    But liver and kidney are so similar. If you dislike the taste of an organ that filters waste material out of a body, you will surely not like the taste of one that produces waste water.

    Fact

    medium rare, there's a bone in there and given the marbling giving it that little extra helps a lot John Torode said so, he's a clown but he know's his meat...

    but as a rule steaks are rare

    I like nearly all food.

    Love seafood - mussels, oysters, crab, plateau royale de fruits de mer,..., bring it on ! In fact I make a twice-yearly pilgramage to a little place in Essex that does some of the best seafood in this country.

    Meat of all sorts - yum. But not battery-farmed chicken, I do have some conscience.

    Wild animals - double yum. I've spent many evenings and a large sum of various companies' expense accounts eating the wildlife from wherever I happen to be.

    However, there is one thing so vile, so horrid that even a tiny sliver of it pollutes whatever it touches, rendering it totally inedible. What's worse, it's often concealed in otherwise delicious-looking cakes and confections.

    Yes, I mean Marzi-poison. Evil beyond belief, my tongue's trying to crawl back down my throat just thinking about it !!!

    Dammit I was trying to avoid that one.

    Also, in unrelated news, capers are great, as are anchovies, but putting them on pizza ruins both them and pizza.

    What else is bad? Manchego cheese. Ewww feety badness. And at the other end of the scale, camembert and brie taste like squidgy soap. Mild cheddar tastes like hard soap.

    Mild Cheddar = cheese for bed wetters.

    Manchengo does ming bad - I'll also agree that Brie is a waste of calories.

    Cheese should make your eyes water or you aren't trying hard enough. Yes I mean when you eat it.

    also it should wreck everything else in the fridge

    Manchego is awesome

    Camenbert is really good if you cut it open stuff it with garlic and herbs and then back in the box and bake it....

  • Chaumes. Now that's proper smelly.

    The genius of cheese is that there isn't a dish in the world that isn't improved by a covering of melted cheese. Even fondue.

    Agreed. That is a fact. As long as its savoury.

    However, I'm really not keen on Manchego. Baked camembert though, that's awesome.
