Welcome
Salvina its a good job you do not live in New Zealand. With a name like Ramsbottom and throwing black puddings at it would un-nerve even the stoutest hearted Kiwi.

Hi Jean. For me,food as either got to look nice,smell nice or both.Black Puddings dont do anything for me sorry!!! How are you keeping,well I hope,you look after yourself,and take it easy. Dave Williams(R583900)
Hi Keith. My favourite topping on chips ,is Mayonaisse, but its got to be Hellmans.I was dubious about it at first,but after the first taste,that was me hooked.Then I like HP BROWN SAUCE over all else.The King and Queen of sauces in my opinion. Dave Williams(R583900)
Going back here to 1972: My first real love, would have Mayo on anything, I remember our first real date aNd she applied mayo to all of her meal.(AND HER FROM DINAS POWIS) Since then have found in Rottertdam and Amsterdam etc, mayo is the norm on your chips. Many places have a vital ingredient to add - Could be Cheese and chips, Chillie and chips, Fish Supper - In Cardiff the norm and almost our National dish is Chicken Curry off the bone, applied liberally over chips. Deep fried Mars Bar ? How come when it's a takeaway Chinese chips are far superior to Indian chips ? Anyone remember Scrumps ? They were the bits of batter etc, you got free if you asked. And the old one: How much is a pie ? What about gravy: Gravy is free, 10 pot's of gravy, please. Strange, started talking of the vital toppings and forgot the vital ingredient,....... CHIPS. What is your fave on chips ? Or if you just like chips: What might you have on them ? NO POINTS FOR CHIPS ON CHIPS, Salt and vinegar is OK..............

hi Jim and jean , didnt want to throw a spanner in the works on that last post . Haggis to me will always be Scottish. It was only something that had been quoted to me in the local. Jean I love haggis , as well as black puddings . I just saw the funny side to it , that if haggis was first invented in England, how good would that be. Keith, in Lancashire the bits you are refering to are called scraps. What a bloody waste of time!, sooner have the fish and chips and a carton of mushy peas any day.. The only trouble these days it costs more than a days wages or was that a week ? back in the merch days. Best regards to everyone. I am now sat with a glass of shiraz wondering if I have upset anyone. Hoestly didnt mean too.:

How Do I Love Thee - West Indian Style {version 1} TRINI POEM You are the essence in my mauby De fish in my fishcakes I love you love you dearly You are the lard oil in my bakes.

You are the sardine in my gravy The dumplings in my soup I love you more than mi belly Yes I love you bad fah true Like banana leaf around my conkie I'll be always close to you Sweet like sugar in your green tea I'll do anything for you. You are the sauce around my Cou Cou Hot like sweetbread when it done I will stick to you like dandruff Like the corns upon your toes Like the fat around your belly I'll be everywhere you goes. Cause you are my black pudding And I know I am your souse When you call I will come running Like when a boar cat see a mouse Oh my pepper on my pork chop Sweet like sorrel when it mix When my hands caress your body You feel just like a couple-six You are sweeter than a snowcone I will give you all I own You are sweeter than a hambone Soft and sweet like piece'o'pone No one can take me from you Not in this life or death My Panya girl I love you It's just your mudda uh cant tek.
SAVE HAGGIS IN TROUBLE Every year, almost 100,000 haggis are needlessly slaughtered in haggis processing centres around the country to cater for the ever-increasing popularity of Scottish haggis. Once, the Highlands of Scotland were teeming with these cute creatures, but modern-day intensive haggis farming has caused the numbers of wild haggis to decline sharply. There are various haggis processing plants in Scotland, with most of them being located in the Highlands, although more and more centres are being opened in the central belt near their intended markets. The most modern haggis processing plant is situated on the A82 Glasgow-Fort William road at Loch Lomond. The haggis are farmed on the summit of the hills before being forced towards the pipes. The force of gravity is then used to hurl the haggis downwards towards the lethal haggis squashers. These squashers are touted as being "modern and humane" towards the haggis, but the end result is the same... Haggis are needlessly tortured and suffer absolute agony before finally dying in this "humane" way by these despicable mechanisms. Once processed, these haggis are sold to butchers and supermarkets all around the world (even through the World-wide Web!) for Scots and would-be Scots to celebrate the life of the great poet, Rabbie Burns (1759-1796). Burns Suppers are now so popular that they last from November to March, thus creating even more suffering for these poor, innocent creatures. We are not asking for a total ban on Burns Suppers, or, indeed, a total ban on haggis. Artificial haggis that is just as tasty can be made using white puddings and haggis can still be farmed, but in a more humane and natural method, such as the methods used to farm both highland cattle and the midge. Please give this cause some serious thought. If invited to a Burns Supper, insist on artificial haggis.
