villa4europe Posted April 13, 2022 Share Posted April 13, 2022 Red Leicester Damn you covid it's been a long two years Also trying the new walkers sensation cracker type things, lime pickle flavour, nails the flavour and the heat, little on the crunchy side and I'd prefer it as a crisp but they're really good, loads of flavour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spoony Posted April 23, 2022 Share Posted April 23, 2022 I know America hating is trendy and boring, but honestly American chocolate is awful. Even the American versions of European chocolate, or American versions of chocolate available in Europe like snickers or Mars or whatever. It’s full of that anti melt stuff that both makes it taste awful and means it doesn’t melt in your mouth. Every time any of us at work goes back to the UK the demand is always to bring back any European chocolate. Anyway, for dinner tonight I made miso steak kebabs. Bought some nice rib eye steaks, chopped them up into cubes, slathered them in miso paste and left them overnight, skewered them then threw them on the bbq. Served with a medley of roasted veggies (aubergine, peppers, mushrooms, onion and pear (the sweetness of the pear is amazing with the miso)) seasoned with smoked paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, pepper, salt and thyme, and then a fattoush, hummus and flat breads (I’m a sucker for Arabic food). Veggie and kebab recipe courtesy of DJ BBQ, who’s a nutter but his recipes are legit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ones round me all do the twisted hot Cheetos and various flavours of the crunchy ones. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brommy Posted April 24, 2022 Share Posted April 24, 2022 5 hours ago, bickster said: They are but they aren't what they used to be, there seems less flavour these days I strongly suspect that’s due to a reduction in salt content. Salt is an amazing flavour enhancer but the push to reduce salt has reduced the perceived taste in so many processed foods that had previously had a ‘fixed’ taste for years. I do most of my household’s cooking, usually from scratch rather than pre-prepared or processed foods, but if I reduce the salt, I soon get comments like ‘it’s nice but not as good as the same meal you cooked couple of weeks ago’. Two weeks later I’ll cook it again with slightly more salt and get ‘that’s better’ comments. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mottaloo Posted May 5, 2022 Share Posted May 5, 2022 I'm a big marmite fan (don't judge me !) and I just bought a jar of their new twist. Now I've no idea what truffles taste like as I am poor scum (perhaps @Xela can advise ? ) but I'm a bit meh about it. £4.50 a jar too ! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidcow Posted May 18, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted May 18, 2022 (edited) A frippin mahoosive doorstop sandwich. Mrs Sidcow even commented on how enormous mine was. Made with beautiful English bread handbaked this morning at Smithtons Food market at Sharmans Cross, Shirley, an easy walk from my house. I have to say the bread was amazing. Had to look away from the cakes and pastries though.... Oh my. Edited May 18, 2022 by sidcow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
