L00b Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 (edited) So do you have the same problem with Bargain Booze and similar shops, which are bricks and motor places that pretty much only sell alcohol???Yep. Problem contributors, not problem solvers. Whether you're looking at alcohol or junk food, all there for (geared towards-) serving and maintaining an instant self-gratifying 'binging' market. That extends to supermarkets running loss-leading offers on booze and junk food, before you ask. Edited July 20, 2015 by L00b Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim1 Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 People can eat what they want, keep your big nose out of it. No-one is forcing you to eat the stuff. Here here! I have lost 3 people this month. A 32 year old leaving 2 toddlers, from epilepsy, a 26 year old from a car crash and a 91 year old from old age! Just live your life as if each day is your last. If you want to eat junk flipping eat it. If you want lettuce eat that, but stop been high and mighty about people who do enjoy eating junk! Bet my 32 year old's toddlers wish there mum was still here to go go McDs with them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soft ayperth Posted July 21, 2015 Share Posted July 21, 2015 Yes i have not worked out why people are obsessed with over priced american rubbish Spot on. Take it from someone who has lived over in North America for past 46 years, you're not missing anything if another donut chain passes you by. KFC, McDonalds, Wendys, Burger King, Krispy Kreme, whatever, it's junk. When I visit Sheffield, I have a hard time finding pork pies, decent fish & chips and Eccles cakes. Good old British food. Can't beat it. Or is it just me wanting the old days back? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or is it just me wanting the old days back? I know there is a good place near the market entrance for really nice Pork Pies. Betty's Chippy for good fish and chips (side road near the market) Eccles cakes...can't help with that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One American dish i want to do is Corn bread, anyone had,made.tried it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
