Private Thread - Keep Out!

[marval]

(That clinches it Margaret - you're definitely the lead poster on Nudity and Naturism, so I think you should choose the topic for next week's "serious" debating)

Oops, that sound bad. I could not see yours John, it wouldn't let me log in. I remember seeing yours Mat.

Now let me see topic for next week's "serious" debating. I think we could have many a "serious" debate about "Food" of any kind.

Thanks Margaret -good choice and a timely intervention - nudity has probably gone far enough! Enjoyed your clip, Matt! And let me reassure both of you that in spite of the "family filter" there was nothing "nasty" or pornographic about the clip I linked to. It simply showed a young man running naked along the side of a road - no commentary, no sexual innuendo, no humour - it was all very innocent, and (I thought) rather beautiful, but you'll obviously have to open a Daily Motion account to find out what you're missing! Right, food, let me see ...

Well to get the not so nice food over with, does anybody know this song. I can't find a recording of it, but here are the words.

A plate of spaghetti
All covered in cheese
I lost my poor meatball
When somebody sneezed

It rolled off the table
And under the floor
And then my poor meatball
Rolled out of the door

It rolled in the garden
And under a bush
And then my poor meatball
Was nothing but mush.

Did you still eat it after all that?

 

[jhnbrbr]

That's so sad, Margaret. I hate to think of good food going to waste.

Annoying food habits #1

People who offer you food off their plates (especially when they've eaten some of it!)

 

[jhnbrbr]

Annoying food habits #2

People who, when you've cooked them your very best recipe which has taken years to perfect, begin by plastering it with tomato ketchup.

 

[marval]

No, I didn't eat it. I gave it to the neighbours dog. lol


I agree John, two annoying food habits.


Food For Thought - Bacon Coated Chocolate
Anyone brave enough to try it?

Even worse, a Chinese student slathered hot chilli sauce on his meal, in similar quantities to what we would use ketchup.

Shudder to imagine the effects the following morning.

However hard I try, I just can't imagine the taste. I would try it, though.

I had my significant reservations about chocolate cheese, but it was surprisingly edible.

As far as other types of food go, I'm afraid I'm something of an Indian tragic along with gourmet pizza. When I visited the UK for the first time and found a shop that made Indian pizzas, I truly believed I'd found heaven.

That said, another heaven actually came the next day when I got to spend three glorious hours in a magnificent, darkened Durham Cathedral playing the magnificent Harrison & Harrison organ. The true heaven followed a week later when I was able to play that instrument in St Sulpice!

After that, anything would have tasted good.

 

[Buchpteclare]

Welllll - perhaps.

It could be interesting, worth a try. One thing I won't touch are chocolate coated bugs. Even spiders.... Sheesh.

ATB!

Hmm, looks more like chocolate coated bacon to me... either way, I think I'd try that.

Chocolate and pork fat together = instant diabetic coma for me :crazy:
