Re: Red Meat
Hi Den.
Well I know it survived on Tab Nabs and soup on many a ship. Have a neighbour who lives on lean cuisine delivered to his door now that is what is wrong with the world soon no one will be able to cook, just microwave something. and changing the subject slightly is I think the reason so many women these days are getting breast cancer, think of it the microwave is normally at chest level.

You could well be correct on that one. Look in the meat case at the supermarket, all the meat done in such a manner that even blind Freddy would be able to cook it. Then all the plastic wrap around it, must cost a fortune in producing this stuff.
