Does it make your wee wee red? Beetroot sandwiches are the best. Nice crusty bread, a good layer of butter and cooked beetroot. Not the pickled stuff, obviously. Edited by YT (20 Jun 2024 5.28pm) On my infrequent visits to UK, first stop Tesco for a jar of Heywoods pickled baby beetroots which I sit in the car and eat half of before moving on... PS Cant beat a liver sausage and anchovy sandwich........the Panino bar in St Georges walk use to do a fine peanut butter, liver sausage and anchovy sandwich a few years back Edited by the silurian (22 Jun 2024 1.31pm)

Whilst on a delightful visit to Phuket my dear wife and I embarked on a day tour of some islands provided by a Leisure Company. We disembarked at Panyee Island where a buffet lunch was provided and whilst I was standing with my plate considering what to sample the tour guide pointed to one of the offerings saying it was "Monkey foot". I shot him a look that would shrivel a saveloy but he was jesting and it was actually chicken ! Jolly nice it was too and I returned for a second helping.Had it truly been "Monkey foot" there is absolutely zero chance it would have entered my mouth. Edited by Willo (25 Jun 2024 8.04am)

Food heaven - Full English Breakfast. I'm embarrassingly the most fussiest of feckers and won't even try something if I don't like the look/smell of it. Always been the same, and I won't change now ! I'm surprisingly healthy for someone who eats the crap I do !

Czech tripe soup might change your mind - they cook the cr*p out of it and cultivate the flasvour with carroway seeds, onion, garlic and marjoram. Drstkova Polevku (I'm half Czech you see).

Food heaven - A barbecue made with a mixture of real wood & lump wood, cooking thick steak and sausages with a side of onion, garlic & mushroom sauté + a salad. Kick off with a couple of cold Kronenbourgs whilst standing over the fire followed by a bottle or two Rioja at the table. Joined by friends who don’t like chatting much unless it’s about travel or football. Food Hell - Sitting in one of those crappy Italian chain restaurants next to a family with noisy kids.
