Normally do that but the time factor prevailed.

Pot Noodles are nice... They never quite taste like they are supposed to though..


Actually, the worst tasting thing I can think of (not strictly speaking food). Any hot drink from a vending machine is bad. Apart from Chicken soup. For some reason, although it doesn't taste much like chicken, it can be quite nice.

Ha! The last time I ate hospital canteen food I thought that pot noodles were more nutritious........what was really depressing was that the 'Hospital Nutritionist' room was accessed via the canteen
...........Kent & County Hospital, Tonbridge Wells, if anyones interested. Colchester General isn't much better though


......back to my taste test...........I tried about 6 or 8 pot noodles in the course of an afternoon.....I think the test results are in the 'pot noodle' thread

Re: The what's cooking thread

Just knocked off for a while from me 4 hour shift in my second job as a taxi driver but before I left I put a Half Leg Of Lamb in the oven stuffed with Garlic and Herbs on a very low heat and now come home to house full of pleasant aromas.

Will wait a while for it to cool and then yum yum yum.
