It sounds ghastly! :spew: (Though I can think of one member here for whom this would be ideal. :D)

Well if it was 1st April, I'd say it was a spoof. The diet appears somewhat lacking in fruit & fibre.
have. heard of it being trialled although i think it is more expensive than stated. Rob Rhineharts baby. no idea why youd want it unless you had to.although my wife cant eat solids much and relies on liquid nourishment mostly.

I really cannot imagine anything worse.
The flavours of great food (and wine) are one of life's greatest joys. There is no length not worth going to in order to achieve culinary excellence. I do most of the cooking in our household and I don't regret a single minute spent in the kitchen.

Yup. Sausage, egg, chips & beans for tea last night. Lovely! ;)
Handy if your in a hurry or can't be bothered though.
Also useful if you gave a dodgy stomach and struggle with too much solid food.
The name is a bit daring, though. Life imitates art once more.

What a difficult choice it would have been today. A nice glass of white powder or one of our rabbits, slow cooked on the woodburner in cider and armagnac with peppers and celeriac, with fresh steamed vegetables from the garden.
So glad I didn't have to make the choice:lol:

When we went to Ravenna a few years ago, there was a McDonalds under a portico in the old city. It was closed and the sign reversed (translucent, or I wouldn't have known what it was). I asked at the hotel what had happened, and was told "We didn't want it here, so we got it closed down".
I like Ravenna.

Tavistock gave McDonalds the old heave-ho a while back as you may recall :eyebrows:

It’s a sad day when a human being feels that way towards food… Think of that lamb curry you had at my place! ;)

Some people say you should eat food that is all the same colour. :)

Hey when I worked from home I cooked myself fresh meals every day, it was no problem. When you're out of the house at work 10 hours a day it isn't so easy.
Absolutely, and I know exactly where you’re coming from, but is that any excuse for taking a pill instead of eating real food?
My view, with anything in life, is if something *really* matters to you, then somehow you’ll find the time to do it…. Even if I lived alone and worked full time, eating well/healthily would still be my number one priority :)

Food takes a chunk out of my income. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr
What else would you spend it on instead, dude?

Wot do you think. Records, Mucky Beer & Red Wine.
…but you can still do that and eat well (note that “well” need not mean expensively). In fact, if you learn to cook properly, using fresh local produce and ingredients, you might have money left over for some mucky women, too! :eyebrows:

Don't want to spend any money on food :D The old Barbarian can live on scraps but the wife aint having none of this buying no food lark
:rolleyes:
Obviously with your “yum yum” remarks, aimed at certain types of food, you enjoy eating them! ;)
