Sweep Posted March 2, 2016 Posted March 2, 2016 My 20 month old would rather smear the walls and dog with what's put in front of him than eat it. I'm hardly going to slow cook him a shoulder of lamb with rosemary potatoes glazed in duck fat. If we are having something he'd rather throw on the floor then I'm sorry it's Heinz Spaghetti and Sausage all the way. Nowt to do with money, ease or whatever bullshit sentiment folk can throw at it. Do you not just plonk your kids down in front of Peppa Pig on a constant loop, whilst making them eat Happy Meals every single night? Quote
Sweep Posted March 2, 2016 Posted March 2, 2016 I've started buying my bread from Booths in Chorley. Am I a cunt? Do you buy it to dunk in your lobby? Quote
little whitt Posted March 2, 2016 Posted March 2, 2016 never seen a kid eat Kabab meat till he has had is first pint Quote
frank_spencer Posted March 2, 2016 Posted March 2, 2016 Do you not just plonk your kids down in front of Peppa Pig on a constant loop, whilst making them eat Happy Meals every single night?Mine spent yesterday afternoon sat in front of Paw Patrol whilst stuffing his face with snacks. Whilst I sorted paperwork and stuff out. Ok it was a couple of babybel's, dried fruit and nuts as that's what he likes. Quote
gonzo Posted March 2, 2016 Posted March 2, 2016 Do you not just plonk your kids down in front of Peppa Pig on a constant loop, whilst making them eat Happy Meals every single night? Only at weekend that mate. In the week they eat food straight out of a can like a stray cat. Quote

bgoefc Posted March 2, 2016 Posted March 2, 2016 Do you not just plonk your kids down in front of Peppa Pig on a constant loop, whilst making them eat Happy Meals every single night? Sadly my wife's niece and alcoholic hubby actually did this with their young un over the last few years. We intervened and things are better but not great, but they now know we and other members of the family are aware and watching. Anyhow its seems I've touched a nerve, which is good as it needs debating. The fact is no matter how much it winds you up the facts do not lie. Our kids are eating too much crap, full of sugar and fat and devoid of vits and mins. At least Oliver was trying, trouble is he a child of SE England and his attempt went well wide of the real target audience. What is needed is a new Delia or Hairy bikers to have a go and ensure they buy all their stuff at Aldi, Lidl and local markets. Folk need to re learn how to boil an egg or steam veg. Exercise them all you want at the end of the day if they dont keep it up and continue to eat the processed foods and cafe type grub the issues will get them in in later years. I cannot over emphasise how important nutrition is from 0 -21 years. Sets you up for life. Quote
Youri McAnespie Posted March 2, 2016 Posted March 2, 2016 Lasagne, chilli, chips, burgers, chicken, jacket spuds, fried fish, sausage, beans, pies and pasties - the truly evil foods guaranteed to land you in an early grave... Incidentally, in the days of pubs only serving from noon, did any other pisspots frequent La Rochelle for a mid morning pint and snifter and bite to eat? I often thought the next stop on my journey would be swilling cans on the Parish church, but thankfully they relaxed the licensing laws. Quote
MancWanderer Posted March 2, 2016 Posted March 2, 2016 Folk need to re learn how to boil an egg or steam veg. Fucking this every time!! Make all the fucking excuses in the world but too many cunts whine about not having enough time to make their own food but can't won't learn how to do the basics Instead of going to the chippy try baking a potato and putting a filling in it. Oh no.......too fucking difficult....it means burning calories going to find somewhere that sells potatoes and then having to think what to have with it. It's far easier in their busy lives, racing back to their scumholes to watch Corrie on their 165" HD Curve TV's with their chips and gravy on their knees It's not fucking difficult to cook. It's not expensive. It doesn't take a lot of time. And it can easily be healthy And it compensates for the fags and whisky later on in the evening Quote
Youri McAnespie Posted March 2, 2016 Posted March 2, 2016 Perhaps when they've £70 a week to pay for everything and can do fuck all, then they want a tray of chips and gravy and don't want a tuna fucking jacket spud... If they're the dregs of society, as most allude to, then surely the sooner they drop down dead the better? Quote
little whitt Posted March 3, 2016 Posted March 3, 2016 dose anyone feed there kids them tins of 50p meatballs i treat my dog too Quote
Whites man Posted March 3, 2016 Posted March 3, 2016 dose anyone feed there kids them tins of 50p meatballs That's the kind of food I imagine Shannon Matthews eating before they hid her in the wardrobe. Quote
Youri McAnespie Posted March 3, 2016 Posted March 3, 2016 They didn't 'hide her in a wardrobe' - was a divan bed. #freekaren. I had a tin of Smartprice meatballs once, worringly smooth in consistency, a bit like pate, they looked liked those 'meaty chunk' dogfoods, although they're mainly mechanically recovered chicken - so they tasted bland and inoffensive. The Smartprice chilli tastes exactly like donner kebab 'meat'...I did these taste tests because I was toying with the idea of stashing a load of food, in case of global financial meltdown, a couple of years ago. Tasting those two were the main reason I put the idea to bed. Quote
Sweep Posted March 3, 2016 Posted March 3, 2016 racing back to their scumholes to watch Corrie on their 165" HD Curve TV's with their chips and gravy on their knees This has just made me laugh, loudy. "Scumholes" - brilliant Quote
Sweep Posted March 3, 2016 Posted March 3, 2016 (edited) I had a tin of Smartprice meatballs once, worringly smooth in consistency, a bit like pate, they looked liked those 'meaty chunk' dogfoods, As an aside, we've just started buying "brawn" from the butchers - I'm not sure I would want to eat it, it looks like lumpy/chunky pate in jelly - anyway, it works out cheaper than tins of dogfood, and the dog fucking loves the stuff. Anyhoo.....does anybody actually buy "brawn" from the butchers for their own consumption? Edited March 3, 2016 by Sweep Quote
freds dad Posted March 3, 2016 Posted March 3, 2016 I nearly bought some but stopped at the last minute. It was a close shave. Quote
no balls Posted March 3, 2016 Posted March 3, 2016 The nice family butchers in clitheroe has started selling home made spam. Not sure about that. Quote
Youri McAnespie Posted March 3, 2016 Posted March 3, 2016 (edited) I've ate trotters, in a Columbian household, a bit ironic given the history of our town, after the initial squeamishness the meat wasn't bad, but a lot of arsing about and dissecting for little reward/yield, a bit like ribs or very bony fish. Brawn, my mam and dad used to buy it from Fraser's - so it probably had a doctorate, but I wasn't keen, I'd give it another go now though, in adulthood. Edited March 3, 2016 by Youri McAnespie Quote
Traf Posted March 3, 2016 Posted March 3, 2016 All the top restaurants sell this cheap shite brawn, passing it off as terrine. Quote
Whites man Posted March 3, 2016 Posted March 3, 2016 All the top restaurants sell this cheap shite brawn, passing it off as terrine. They also urinate in the sinks and pass off £5 vin de table as vintage. Quote
Traf Posted March 3, 2016 Posted March 3, 2016 They also urinate in the sinks and pass off £5 vin de table as vintage. I thought as much. Quote
Youri McAnespie Posted March 3, 2016 Posted March 3, 2016 They don't, staff are usually gruntled in these places - it's the chain places that are hotbeds of sink-pissing, especially coffee houses (chain ones). Quote
dave2980 Posted March 3, 2016 Posted March 3, 2016 I think the butcher offered me a sample of brawn the other week - I wasn't really paying attention but know it was pork based and looked like terrine. I want overly keen on it Quote
