Vegas & The Aftermath - Diary

So many questions.

Isn't that just a really big plate?

If it is that must be for more than one person.

and if it is how do you serve from there without tipping beans and peas all over the table?

So the neatness is only a temporary thing, and the end result is messier than just serving the beans and peas from a pan or serving dish.  I mean the kids will still manage to somehow get beans into the most incomprehensible parts of the kitchen, but still...

and nobody eats that many sausages, do they?  and combining with that many beans is just going to produce some horrific wind.

I think I have looked at many of Tony's meals and felt more satisfied than I do now.  You may as well just tip some beetroot and pineapple on it in my view.

I am not sure I can answer all of your very valid questions as I stole the image from Rate My Plate!

I had assumed it was a normal sized plate, I think they are cocktail sausages?

To avoid things tipping off you have to start at top sausage, fork through sausage scooping mash on the way through, you then return to the same spot and use the newly created space to add beans and peas to your fork, using the bean juice as an adhesive.

The neatness must not be disturbed or the whole dish just implodes.

Definately cocktail sausages.


OCD Heaven.

The only thing satisfying about that plate is that it isn't mine

Rate My Plate, referenced  by the Bopkin, is the best Twitter feed ever.

This beauty popped up on it a day or so ago....

Who on earth would but the peas in the middle? What kind of a lunatic thinks like that?

I can live with the peas, but it's a basic rule of eating - & life - that peas belong on the side of the plate, never the centre.

why is that mustard (?) neon yellow?

why waffles?

why tinned tomatoes when fresh ones are so good at this time of year?

most importantly, wtf is going on with the toast in the background?  How do you get that square burnt to a cinder effect in the middle?

Most of the time I can tell the genuine efforts from the pisstakes, but today I am a bit lost.

[StuartHopkin]

The toast on the plate has been scraped?

The toast on the plate has been scraped?

I'm wondering if that's fried bread?

[RED-DOG]

That red thing in the middle looks like a road-kill budgie.

[Supernova]

Not sure if this should go in the strange food thread but seeing the mustard reminded me that I can't eat a slice of black pudding with out a tiny bit of mustard to Bring out the flavour.

I'd be sending that plate back to the kitchen

Peas were sent by the devil to poison us all
