Pasta goes with just about anything. I seem to recall that a former Housemate survived on pasta and baked beans, and it never seemed to do her any harm - although the vodka she washed it down with probably did in the end

I had a friend who used to live on one crappy microwave lasagne a day. He spent the rest of his time sleeping - but then he WAS a History student.

I was behind a family at the checkout in Sainsbury's this afternoon who had filled their trolley with just about every reduced-price item they could get their fat fingers on.
At first I thought they must be having a party or running a Bed & Breakfast until I noticed the yellow stickers on everything. I'm sure a dozen eggs reduced from £1.92 to just 10p is a bargain, but to get 9 boxes with a use-by date of 8 Jan 08 doesn't lend itself to a very balanced diet for the next 6 days (even if they have a huge family that like omlettes).
I'm sure alot of it could go in the freezer, but even then there is a time limit on how long it's safe to keep. I'm not sure I would want to be defrosting mince pies at Easter :roll:
Each to their own though

or, you could make some food that doesn't sound shit. If this is what you eat it might explain why you're such an arse

Carry on barcode. I'm liking the sound of the consequences.
