Aspartame.
Sorry, I forgot.
#cleaneats #paleo.
Had some pork in the slow cooker all day (after 3 bouts boiling it in water for 12 minutes each time, to get rid of all the salt) that's almost ready to be pulled.
I'm a twit
Why are McDonalds advertising their new range of wraps by showing them being made by a filthy unwashed looking wretch?
Did anybody know Warburtons now do 'Giant Crumpets'? I bought a pack, and I think you were better off just having two normal ones.
Sweet Lord yes.

Anyone like crumpets straight out of the pack? It's like bread-flavoured rubber but I like it.
I never really saw the fuss with crumpets. Gimme a Scotch pancake over them any day.
I bought American pancakes the other day instead and they were much nicer.
Aren't American pancakes and Scotch pancakes the same thing?
As opposed to those shitty crepe things that the English refer to as 'pancakes'.
EDIT: Yeah, same thing basically. They're great.
The scotch ones are like the ones I used to get in NI that people toast and butter. These American ones (I'd never seen them before) were a lot thicker and looked a lot like a crumpet without the dimples. May have been just that type and not typical of what they normally are though. I like the scotch ones too though.
I fucking hate crumpets. Like eating a sponge. And not the good type of cake sponge.
What you have to understand with crumpets is that they themselves are not the attraction of eating crumpets. They serve merely as the perfect receptacle for excessive amounts of melting butter. They should probably be the national dish of England.
I'm quite fond of a CHEEKY bit of jam/marmalade on a crumpet
Penne is the worst pasta. Awful stuff.
Lol that looks atrocious.
Just spent £15 on two fillet steaks for tonight. Broccoli stems, green beans and red potato creamy mash and finally peppercorn sauce to accompany.
Sauted with butter and garlic though.
Pasta shapes are more about what they do to the sauce, which in penne's case is hold it in quite nicely. Conchiglie (shells) are the kings though.
Penne is alright (Rigatoni is a better version), but I agree that Conchiglie is the best. Farfalle can go to hell though.
So was phonics just complaining about the shapes of the tubes not getting enough sauce or does he think they taste differently?
Tagliatelle is probably my favourite, though I tend to use spaghetti (should that be without the 'h') the most. Not a fan of Conchiglie or Fusilli for some reason, and macaroni is probably the one I actively avoid. Penne is alright.
When it comes to longer pasta, the wider it is the better. Pappardelle > Tagliatelle > Spaghetti. I need to make Pappardelle more often.
They're all too messy for me. If I'm stuck and there's only long pasta in the house it needs broken up before cooking.
By broccoli stems do you mean tenderstem broccoli Magic?
The co-op had some special pasta shape thing called lumaconi or somesuch on offer a while ago, which was a high quality dried pasta shape.
Yup, only one way to eat 'long' pasta.
I had no idea Giggles was seven.
Never read that many of his posts then.
So the steaks are off because the in laws invited us for tea, Old El Paso enchiladas.
So it doesn't matter what pasta you eat but if you eat that one you're a cunt.
Well done mate.
You don't need a spoon.
Eating it for show.
Fucking hipsters!
Eating spaghetti for show.
You're a fucking idiot, Giggles.
Can be the only reason for eating it unless it's what you're given and you've no choice.
I do like how I get this and phonics can say penne is disgusting and it just passes by. Not what's said, but who says it.
If I had opened with penne is rank then we'd never have got to spaghetti because I'd be still copping abuse for that.
Job done.
