where they tell you the acceptable times of the day for eating snacks. I'm just trying to live the best way I can and I don't need some nark breathing down my neck every time I eat a walnut at an inappropriately late hour.
Geez
egg - 6/10 - put it on too late in the cooking process so the top wasn't as cooked as I'd have liked. the yolk was disappointingly small.
mushrooms - 7/10 - chestnut are far from my favourite frying mushroom but tasty nonetheless.
chipolatas - 6.5/10 - a little bit tasteless but with a bit of ketchup they were still pretty good.
bagel - 8/10 - a very pleasant surprise considering it was a weightwatchers one (they were on offer)
apple - 9/10 - pink lady, enough said (see apple thread)
I was going to cook a tasting menu didnt quite end up being what i started out intending, but anyway
there was the following
greek and scicillian Olives and crisps
1) grilled roquefort on toast bits with crushed walnuts drizzled with honey
2) beetroot and goats cheese slice with tomato cucumber avacado rocket pepper salad
3) halloumi corgette and pepper kebabs grilled but like with BBQ flavour
4) mushroom rissotto
5) fried soya/wheat protein strips with groats
6) chennei potatoes knapped with a mulligatawni sauce
and we had a bottle of carmeniere
we didnt have enough room for sparkling pinot grigio or a strawberry and ice cream smoothie
1) 9.5/10
2) 7/10
3) 7/10
4) 7/10
5) 8/10
6) 7/10
wine 7.5/10
overall an 8/10 because there was enough variety and I imagine it would have been great If i were just getting it served up to me.
Groats are the hulled grains of various cereals, such as oats, wheat, barley or buckwheat.
Groats are whole grains that include the cereal germ and fiber-rich bran portion of the grain as well as the endosperm (which is the usual product of milling). Groats from oats are a good source of avenanthramide.
Groats are nutritious but hard to chew, so they are often soaked and cooked. They can be the basis of kasha, a porridge-like staple meal of Eastern Europe and Eurasia. Roasted buckwheat groats are also known as kasha or kashi, especially in the United States.
Wheat groats, also known as bulgur, are an essential ingredient of the Middle Eastern dishes mansaf and tabbouleh.
Sandwich- 4/10 (not its fault- I feel queasy but also starving and it's not a happy marriage)
Crisps- 8.5/10 (lovely crisps.)
Will report back on my dairley dunkers (jumbo tubes) and my passionfruit in a minute.

either they've improved how they make them in recent years OR its because I was using 1% milk rather than my usual semi-skimmed but they don't seem to turn to mush like they used to and that I heartily approve of

Not all of us had a fancy upbringing and went to some kind of finishing school

True
also apple
also 7/10
what reduced it for you?
for me, the texture was perfect but it lost two marks for lacking taste and another 1 mark because the skin was a bit more yellow than i like
it had been sitting about on my desk for a few days
so was generally past it's prime
-1 for the minor bruising
-2 for slight sponginess and lack of crunch
In retrospect I may have been a bit generous
how was the flavour though?
reasonable
...
Just finished eating my entire lunch. Still hungry. Im a monster :(
