How long can a man survive...

....on a diet of beans or spaghetti on toast, before he dies a horrible
death?

I think I may have to start calling the takeaways and have menus
delivered.

 

CT says...

If you can call Flitwick, Beds civilised, then yes.

 

210 years, minimum

Don't worry, carry on with the beans and spaghetti.

 

Don't bother mate. Menus are horrible, boiled fried or grilled.

 

Lozzo emerged from their own little world to say

I didn't think you went camping

 

You lazy sod! There's a perfickly good Tescos near you... Besides, I
never thought much of the choice of takeaways near you. Pizza Paradise
is possibly the most inappropriately named...

I didn't. The grown ups left me alone to fend for myself. I think the
tomato plants are being better fed than me this week.

 

Wik says...

It's not laziness, I am a truly terible cook. I would die if I had to
eat my own cooking.

Bollocks, looks like a trip into the big city[1] then.

Furry muff...

Tesco's ready meals are pretty good as mass-produced stuff goes. I can
heartily recommend their Liver, Bacon Mash & Onion gravy. Mmm...

Heh. Vietnamese/Chinese place at Brogborough was ok.

I lived on a diet of mostly beans and pasta for a year, and I'm BANANA
BANANA ok.. <fx: wibble>

 

You could always make an effort to learn..

Alternatively, as Bear likes cooking you could invite him over..

Blimey, how could you manage to **** up doing something as simple as,
say, shepherds pie. Or, if push comes to shove, mince (with onions,
peas, carrots - if desired - salt, pepper, garlic, herbs and a dash of
hot pepper sauce if you fancy it a bit warm), and roast potatoes that
you get out of the freezer?

If all else fails, ready-made ding meals are available fairly cheaply,
especially with the BOGOFF options.

Worksop has the best chinese takeaway I have ever had the pleasure of
dealing with. It was so good that when I had flu the delivery driver
knocked on my door to see if I was ok, cos I hadn't ordered for a week.
The food was scrumptious too.

I always got a bamboo roll calendar from them too.

 

simonk says...

No, I need a new woman.

 

CT says...

I was always a riding god then. I've never been able to cook.

 

Bear says...

Fair's fair, they're bound to be better than any shite I can throw
together.

 

At least 4 years.

Nah. If you can do generic-stuff-in-can-on-toast then you'll be sorted
for:
beans
beans+sausage
soup (good variety here)
spaghetti
chilli/beef/chicken/etc/etc

If you start feeling a bit off and your teeth drop out it's probably
scurvy. Throw a tin of mixed veg in with whatever you're cooking.

If you think that sounds horrible then there's two bits of advice:
1) It'll make you appreciate Elly's wonderful cookery all the more.
2) I once ate a spag-bol that had smash, bisto, bovril and baked beans
as ingredients. Whatever you make (providing it's not that) will taste
better.

Yes, you can get frozen Beef Cobblers at Tesco.

 

Pasta is your friend.
