    It took me quite a long time to get to like shellfish. Cheese too. I used to hate it.

    Have you never tasted freshly collected mussels, covered in light grating of cheese, popped briefly into a hot oven, and washed down with proper black velvet?[^] 'Tis the perfect Sunday morning prelude to a large, cholesterol-packed brunch!

      I disagree, if it has nutrient value then it can and should be eaten. There is far too much food wasted in the West because of this sensitivity to uncommon parts of the animal. Spend some time in a third world country (I lived in Turkey in the mid 1970s and visited in rural Uganda more recently) and you will get a better perspective on how difficult life can be if you cannot afford the 'rich' cuts, or in many cases, any meat at all.

      And given the choice would you still eat the kind of stuff they are forced to in Uganda? ;)

                AT least food is interesting. GW is so dull these days. I think people have become utterly numbed by the onslaught from the media, with the total lack of any substantial change in the climate. It seems everyone has put it on a back burner to be ignored till something does actually happen. Foods good though. Its never a divisive topic.

                                God I'm so bored. This job had one interesting moment, that lasted 5 days, and now its over. And now I am startijng to resent the fact I have to give so much of my time up just to stare blankly at a screen wondering what kind of utter stupidity broke the damn product.

                                    Actually, the food in Uganda was all quite eatable, though some of it (cassava) not terribly nourishing. And given the choice I would probably avoid some of the things in their basic diet.

                                          And you know a Micehlin starred restaurant that serves Cardon, marrow, truffle au gratin do you? :) Anyway, thats not the point. To judge British chefs on their ability to cook a dish so obsucure I never heard of it, with ingredients so lame I wouldnt want to eat it is stupid in the extreme.

                                          Bask in the ultimate truth of fat_boy. Only food that he could like is fit to be cooked on the tele. You really are the incarnation of Cartman, aren't you?
