What to eat?

Food, glorious food.  Time to eat the cupboards bare while I wait for my first pay cheque.  The food parcels my Mam dispatched me with are a long forgotten memory.  My stomach rumbles at the thought of her lovely cakes, but all that fruit and veg she sent soon turned into a right mush.

How do you manage to eat your 5 a day when you are allergic to half of it and dislike the rest?

Mixing it with tomato sauce or piccalilli chutney?  That probably won’t work well with grapes and plums though, will it.

I was reading the other day that store cupboard must-haves now include chilli sauce, basmati rice and balsamic vinegar. So that kicks my favourites such as pickle, long-grain rice and malt vinegar right into touch. It makes the UK sound very exotic though don’t you think?

Just before Christmas Morrisons, found that three fifths of people (60%) are more likely to add chilli sauce than pickle to the leftover turkey and a quarter will accompany it with hummus rather than coleslaw.   Umm, not sure whether to go yum to that or not.

Maybe I need to check out the supermarket shelves and give it ago.
