@ solo, i’ll let you know what its like after the weekend 🙂

*joins TSY at the vending machine* 8)

MG – maybe if you’re planning on giving this free to your mates, make sure they are aware of the other options that help to pay my bills?

I will.. only a few are potential customers though. Will only give it out if you don’t mind.

It’s family actually not mates.

iDave:

…or point them at this.

Of course, the fundraiser goes without saying 🙂

I suspect it hasn’t

I’d be amazed to find a jar on a super market shelf that doesn’t contain sugar.
Sugar is the hook that all the food manufs will use to own you.

🙂

The food manufs own us because they make food that we need to eat!

@ solo, i’ll let you know what its like after the weekend

Its a twist on a Hairy Bikers recipe, not TSY.
😉

I can post a method if its required, there is a sequence to what goes in during the cooking.

Also, I use a 300g bag of quorn mince, although I think you can get 500g bags now.

The listed recipe makes quiet a lot of chilli too, good for freezing. So use a big pot.
😉

T, FTFY
😉

Does this mean i’m meant to eat the chilli off a hairy biker or TSY? 😉

Can you post the method too then please? *goes home via the supermarket to buy a big pot* I’ll have to eat my chocolate ice cream to make room to freeze the chilli then *has such a hard life*

I think he’s implying I’m a hairy biker… but I don’t ride bikes.

I have been inspired by reading the above to make chilli with quorn for my tea tomorrow night

i like quorn, but personally don’t think it works as well in chilli as lean steak mince. however in bolognese i reckon quorn mince is better than steak mince.

Why are we discussing use of quorn over lean mince? Isn’t lean mince allowed?

Solo unless you grow your own you are getting your food from a manufacturer. That might be pop tarts or cucumbers – farmers are manufacturers.

Molly.

I’m just fekkin witcha 😉

But I am reasonably anti dinner from a jar.

I prefer and 95% of the time make, most of my meals from the basic ingredients and spices.
Sundried tom paste is about as from the jar as it gets for me, although I have been using the tetra packs of beans lately as I work away all week.
Obviously spices, liquids, oils and vinegars are made for me.

😉

Farmers are producers, that’s why it’s called farm produce. Food manufacturing happens in factories, that’s where it’s processed into things like pop tarts and the sugar and other rubbish is added.

Kev

Kev.

Thats exactly how I see it.
😉

what about GM crops, are they ‘produced’ or ‘manufactured’?

produfactured.

xx

Not all manufactured food is rubbish. I don’t make my own sauces and stuff (even though I can and have) because I’ve got better things to do with my time than cook and clean up the mess 🙂

You think that chilli is good….

You should try my homemade ragu.
8)

Never had a home-made chilli that was as good as the Discovery jar either mind – despite their creators exhortations otherwise 🙂

The STW forum can be good, but its not that good.
😉

like your thinking Mr Consequence 🙂

(EDIT – not you other-phil.w…. that was aimed at molly after solo’s magnificent take down)

You are right Molgrips.

You’ve come so far already since those contrarian days of arguing with iDave.

We shouldn’t push you too far. You’ve done well.
🙂

solo, i’m nominating you for the “rising star” award in my dreams. i’ll have to consult with jamie, deadly and yeti of course… but you’re turning heads.

Against the four horsemen of STW. Philconsequence, TSY, DD AND Jamie.

I stand no chance.

😉

Edit.

We’ll have to get ride sorted sometime.

Never had a home-made chilli that was as good as the Discovery jar either mind

but 99% of those ready made sauces have the second ingredient listed as sugar. The main contents of them are tomatoes and sugar.

Kev

4 idiots caught in a virtual bromance more like!

(EDIT – where be you based in this fine country of englandshire? if you’re from skottland then no, we will not meet. you’re probably ginger or something and might throw logs at us. seen it on tv, not lying.)

You’re thinking of ketchup.

I do check labels btw 🙂

iDave disciple ride. I’m in. Will we recite the iDave prayer and give thanks for our weight loss before we set off?

😆

I live in Norfolk, county of light and big skies……

Solo – how do you fancy being the jam in our doughnut?

No escaping out the side, mind.

Solo – how do you fancy being the jam in our doughnut?

Doughnut? You forget where you are?

…unless you can get lentil donuts.

norfolk – if we break that word down it suggests both ‘norf’ and ‘folk’, we could safely conclude that there’s a risk of it being full of ‘folks from the norf’…. worrying.

i need to get my shoulder healed up, get myself riding again, perfect my homemade liposuction kit for deadly then i’m up for a ride. i’ll ‘pencil’ it into my diary for the end of summer, maybe by then i’ll be thin enough to show my face in the presence of y’all

It’s made with gram flour and tomato jam…. durrr.

It’s made with gram flour and tomato jam…. durrr.

Sounds delicious. Makes you wonder why people would even want that sugar smothered, deep fat fryed….jam…..filled…..

*Starts to sweat and move away slowly, heading for the road bike.
While the four horsemen get their gimp suits on*

🙁

Plus it’s a nut… we covered nuts on page 14 I think. They’re ‘in’.
Think I might buy a bag tonight and eat them all. I’m having an off day.
