Cook a large amount of mince.

Nachos, cheese and veg sticks etc

OhTheRoses · 03/10/2019 21:54

I have never known 4 or 5, 6, 7, 8 teenage boys refuse any food whatsoever.

Pizza, salady bits and dips; fat Herta hotdogs and chips; chicken thighs, chips and dippy bits; cottage pie; mountain of sausages; spag bol or pasta bake. The alternative is your arm. Oh and a few lagers and plenty of coke. And lashingsof baguette and butter and cake.

DS's chums are all growwd up now. I once had another poster's dd's in my house and we ROFL'd having realised on thread.

Katjolo · 03/10/2019 21:58

User1053051066 · 03/10/2019 22:10

Thanks, all!
Nearest chippy is 10 miles away, nearest KFC is 70 miles away. So it will need to be cooked here!
Thanks for all the ideas Smile
