sainsburys

and while i'm at it....
sainsburys. not content with foisting that irritating, fat tongued, ratty wifed mockney saviour of school meals upon the masses during the breaks in "i'm a worthless celebrity" and "look how stupid people are" on itv, they have now come up with this outstanding cooking suggestion on their eggs display

ideal in place of what exactly?
apples maybe?
perhaps flour?
was i just ahead of the game in using eggs all these years?

while not being entirely sainsburys fault there is this little gem


oaty porridge eh... that's a revelation. i've never noticed how oaty a dish made with oats and milk was.

just how stupid is the general consumer? i really do worry about the future of humanity sometimes.

muffin rant

muffins:
right americans, let's get one thing straight......
this is a muffin

to be precise, it's a toasted, buttered wholemeal muffin. i enjoyed it with a cup of tea. it is not an "english muffin"; it is the only kind of muffin.

this however, IS NOT A FUCKING MUFFIN!!!!

it's a fucking CAKE! it is not a breakfast food! just look at it. it looks like a cake, it's sweet and fatty like a cake. IT IS A CAKE!

get it?!?!

the only reason you lot call it a muffin is so you can feel better about eating crap first thing in the morning.

it's a cake, call it a fucking cake, then stop eating so many of them.
