Scummy food that hits the spot

No. Just no

Don’t get me started you fucking Neanderthal. The only time fruit and cheese should ever come together is a slice of Christmas cake with a slice of Wensleydale. No fruit infused cheese. No fucking pineapple burned on top of cheap, tasteless, bottom end mozzarella 

Pizza should only ever be tomato base, quality mozzarella and fresh basil. Pineapple. Fucking pineapple. If you want pineapple on pizza you should be forced to recover it from your rectum before serving

Exactly. And that’s how it should be. Maybe with some Greek yoghurt and a sprinkling of granola to demonstrate one’s metrosexuality if required

Don't get me wrong, it's way way down the list, cheese fruit, but cranberry wendsleydale for 30p on the whoopsie section will get bought.

Oooh that ham in a tin that had all jelly round the edges. Proper loved that on a butty. God we was poor 😂

PEK ham, which was a brand name but passed into normal use like hoover or tannoy.

Beetroot was one of my pregnancy cravings. Could eat a full jar then think I have bladder cancer cos of the bright red wee. 

Cancun a few years ago. Mrs Manc and her sister got boozing at the pool bar at lunchtime with a couple of mental Dutch women. Woke up from a snooze to hear the dickhead screeching and crying that she had cancer and was going to die. Group hugs, the lot. She’d had so many strawberry daiquiris she was shitting them straight out thinking it was blood

Aye, I like cheese but nowt fancy, no foreign muck

Like Mr Grey and his taste in men, it needs to be hard for me to want it

Fruity wensleydale gets a tick

I can see an argument for most food and snacks on this thread.  I've been a martyr to pot noodle buttys, bacon hoptpot, gravy on fish, etc etc.

Just 2 things I'd never touch.  The poor kids next door to us used to have sugar buttys! Slice of buttered warbys, coated in tate and lyles finest. However, even that's almost acceptable compared to those dirty mingers who put pineapple on pizza.

My mam used to say growing up folk on 'Kent Street' had newspaper as tablecloths and in lieu of curtains, drank out of old jam jars and ate sugar butties.

I used to say "Didn't aunty X live there?"

"She lived at the good end!"

Of all the trampy foodstuffs on this threads - gravy on fish and chips, or chippy fish is utter peasantry.

Makes Pot Noodle butties look Cordon Bleu.

I used to eat dairylea spread on Warbies.

Or Salad Cream on Warbies.

As a kid.

Not because times were hard, I just liked it.

You're missing a trick not eating French and Italian cheese.

As are folk who only use Parmesan or Grano Padano to grate on pasta.

Great on a cracker or crusty bread shaved.

What the fuck is nom nom

Nom nom is what scutters post on social media when they show everyone what they are eating at Nando’s. I’ve not got any friends but I’ve persuaded the local fatty out for lunch and I’m going to tell everyone what a delicious time I’m having

Never been to a Nando's - is there one local? Middlebrook, maybe?

No. Just fucking no. Leave the cheese alone. Have your Wensleydale or whatever and add the fruit as a side accompaniment. Cheese with a fruit based relish. Cheese with apple or whatever but don’t ruin the cheese. Cheese needs its own flavour

I specified Whoopsie prices only...

Paying full whack - I'd never choose it.

Add curry sauce to that as well. Fish should be dry and crispy. Liquids should be on the side

When you’re back at work and I’m at Breightmet H/C on business. First date is always on expenses just in case you take the piss and order the expensive stuff

Only one I’ve ever been to is the one near me in Ashton-Under-Lyne. Shite. And you can see them cooking your battery hen while you wait. Vile

Tell that to about a billion Bengalis, Bangladeshis, Thais and Rick Stein...

Sometimes the batter's soggy already so no harm done.

I concur to an extent, I wouldn't put owt moist on a nice crisply battered fish.

Maybe mushy peas but on the side, always got them in a cup, if she/he went to ladle them on the tray my reply would be unprintable.

Always get my fish wrapped separately too.

Nah, you're right, looks like it's simply McDonald's or KFC with plates...

You’re on. Don’t tell @Rudyor @Spiderffs. Don’t need them two as an audience

Is cottage cheese still a thing?

A sweaty residue that looks like thrush.

Wimmin ate it by the skipful in the 80’s , usually atop an A4 sized Ryvita.

I like all cheese apart from that and supermarket Lancashire.

Though I had some goats cheese from a small farm near Bergerac a couple of years ago that nigh on dissolved my tongue. I’m convinced it was a hardened slab of goat jizz. Monsieur Grey would probably have a better idea than me though.

Birdseye potato waffles.

Hangover cure - rather than beans on toast, it’s beans on waffles. Sticking them in the toaster is easier than faffing with the grill. Chuck on some brown sauce too.
