Food, to eat or not to eat.

People say that i am fussy about my food. This may be true but i tend to believe that i am not fussy i just have a very clear knowledge of what i don't like.
However this in no way stops me from trying new things or retrying old ones just to make sure. I love food from different country's, But feel that good old British fare sometimes gets a raw deal although some of it not.

Top of the scoff:
The Cornish pasty - It will no surprise to some that i have started with this, how can i not. The true Cornish pasty is a winner, a meal in itself.
The full English - I defy anyone to find me a better hangover cure than this lot.
Hogs pudding /Black pudding - Both of these are a great addition to any fried breakfast or with a nice roast.
Sheppard's pie - a great winter evening warmer.
The humble roast - Still eaten on a Sunday across the land, The roast is defiantly one of my favs.
Bangers and mash - With a think onion gravy, Top scram.

And the most British of British

Fish and chips - speaks for it's self really.

These are of course just a few of the dishes that tickle my taste buds but for me the fact that they are still around today and going strong must mean that there is something in it.

The ones that don't make the cut:
Tripe - For reason i feel are obvious
Jellied eels - errrr just no.
Kidney - For me a definite no no.

blurgghhhhhh...

On that note back soon.
