Oh i'm a really crap italian at that because i'm mad for fish and chips.But then London is more sophisticated than the rest of England so i can live on chinese food for days on ends.haha

I have to confess that as a vegetarian, I'm not really qualified to be commenting on this. I just got a bit carried away.

But cheese and pickle sandwiches are lovely.

i would dare anyone to find an english food that can compete with something like a good risotto. and is a dried up roast beef any kind of match for osso buco? no way!!

(do i sound like a depraved glutton? oh yes...)

Sorry but osso buco is vile.

[!@#$%!]

oh man you are so wrong. no wonder you're accustomed to supermarket foods.

Pickle is an evil invention,i'm afraid.

[porkmarras]

......And so is vinegar!

[porkmarras]

....and polenta!

[sonicl]

Branston Pickle = Good

Piccalilli = Now that is evil.

[porkmarras]

I'm really fond of vegemite,though.Once i've discovered that i've become addicted to it.

 

[Inhuman]

As for cheese, OKA is amazing, check it out. I dislike pickles other than dill, they're usually bitter and gross.

[!@#$%!]

polenta is rather bland but with the right sauce... oh yeah!

porkie ,are you from the north by the way? (i'm thinking if you hate polenta you must be sick of it, ha ha)

[porkmarras]

I was born in Sardinia but as a kid i was brought up in different parts of Northern Italy.I have family a bit all over the place.

Polenta is also great with a rabbit stew.
Mmmm. How I miss being a carnivore sometimes.

ah!!!! see that explains it.

you know, i want to go to france and italy and eat and then commit suicide, because i know it will all be downhill from there.

so you don't miss sardinian seafood? i know that's the only thing that would make me go back home, ha ha.

Is that the same as marmite?

[porkmarras]

I can't get enough of fish in wichever form or shape.I'm addicted to fish and i smell fishy myself considering that i'm a porkchop(pork is vile too,by the way).

[Pookie]

Marmite is much nicer than vegemite, but i think it's the same thing.

[Lurker]

sanitarium? is it for ill people?
