Oh lordy squash soup. Not made that for a loooong time. In fact it brings back nightmare memories of when I adapted my recipe to use a pumpkin I had been given.

Just be careful you don't end up running the equivalent of a soup kitchen. :D

They have been a Xmas treat for me since early childhood. Then they got "superfood" status and became too expensive for a long while. Then imports started of culinary pommegranate that are far too sour to eat raw.

Glad to report that large, sweet ones are in Lidl at 50p each now!

Diets generally fail for the vast majority of people and within a short period of time any weight lost soon goes back on and more besides.
