    When I lived up there in the pre-justeat days the local taxi man would grab a chinese for you and pick up a carry out on the way.

    In scouser land they did the dodgy marked up booze in fucking ice cream vans, along with individual cigarettes and stuff. The rumour was always that they sold drugs but I'm unconvinced.

    I remember once almost being tempted by "deliveroo off-license", when i was at a particularly low ebb but I managed to find the motivation to go to the garage instead. It was something hilarious like £8 for 4 330ml cans.

    Anyone got a deep fryer? I've got one of those actifry air fryer things but it's buzzy loud and not hugely satisfying.

    Quite fancy getting one of those proper individual deep fryers to make myself some deep fried chicken, fries and haggis balls.

    Recommendations?

    A deep fat fryer is a deep fat fryer. Just buy one with a thermostat and the size you require.

    They're ok, but every time you use it you're left with a shit ton of oil to get rid of.

    You don't need to change the oil after every use.

    But then you have a big thing of oil sat around in the kitchen. The associated faff is never worth it, unless you're using it every day in which case welcome to Scotland I suppose.

    It's not taking up bench space. Most people store plenty of things they don't use everyday in their kitchen cupboards.

    I don't care about space, a big pot of oil smells of oil and whatever you cooked in it.

    If you used lard it would set (and not smell) once it cooled down and then you could just shove it anywhere.

    If they're sloppy then I'd definitely go somewhere else.

    Growing up it seemed like the “chip pan” (I assume this is a deep fat fryer) was out every night. I’m surprised I’m not a fatty.

    It was someone I lived with, so technically 'we' had one.

    If you've got a cupboard you could keep a fryer in it.

    my mum refused to get a deep fat fryer because she was convinced I'd end up killing us both in a house fire. hard to argue with her, especially once i started drinking.


    besides, proper chips are good but having to leave the house and pay for them keeps them sacred. it's the same reason i keep rejecting girls who want to be my girlfriend.

    I haven't seen the Wasabi either, but the chicken wing ones are better than the chilli and lime or whatever that one is. I've stocked up on three big bags of chicken wing and three of jalapeńo and cheese.

    I rate the chicken ones as well. The co-op have them on bogoff at the moment. I respect the smack-you-in-the face quality of the cheese/jalapeno ones, but I think I prefer the chicken.

    I find foie gras, like any offal (or derivative), can go either way. Most times I've had it on something it's been pretty shit, but every now and then you get someone who knows what they're doing and it's excellent.
