what odd and down right silly food combos have you had to endure while working away ?
Im currently in balkanabat in turkmenistan and ive been to the local hotel and decided thats exactly why the FCO say almost everyone gets the travelers trotts here ….
so got the driver to take me to supermarket – interesting when you dont speak russian and dont have a kitchen…..
The other night i bought bread and cheese , lots of chocolate and crisps . 3 litres of coke and 12 litres of water – the cheese was rancid and couldnt be eaten but the bread was tasty – fresh baked.
tonight i bought different cheese and its tasty – but there was no bread – i also have no fridge so im having to eat all my cheese with crisps haha.
Its not as bad as ukraine where i survived on 6 packs of supernoodles a bag of coffee and bread from the canteen when offshore for 8 days – the rig food was rotten (litterally it was rotting when they brought it on board)
on the way back it was rough seas and abody was sick – except me who had nothing to be sick with haha.
Never mind – for every shit trip like this there is a good trip to make up for it.
