To have given my son a tin of tomatoes for breakfast

[JeezyOrangePips]

My son is a teenager, and more than capable of getting breakfast for himself, but I tend to get his breakfast when I get mine.

This morning I asked him what he wanted. The usual answer is toast or cereal. Today he said 'food'.

He refused to expand on his answer, so I've left him with a tin of tomatoes.

WIBU?

He's a snotty teenager. Fuck him.

Youngsters these days don't know they're born. When we asked "What's for tea", we were told "You'll get what you're given".

Ahh, the good old days.

Nowadays that probably consitutes abuse of some sort.

Is he my son? DS1 is 15 and apparently we never have any food in

I thought your story was amusing

I must try toms on toast too as I hear they're nice but I'd put cheese on first greedy.

I'd guess plum tomatoes rather that chopped?

I love toms on toast, with plenty of butter on the toast first. But no cheese, I tried that and it was like soggy pizza!

I rediscovered pilchards on toast recently too.

Why are things on toast so nice? Toms, pilchards, cheese, eggs, beans, they're all so much nicer with toast than on their own. I wonder what magic properties toast has!

I love hot tinned tomatoes for breakfast, but I like a bit of bacon sausage and eggs and some toast with it too.
I think giving him a tin of tomatoes was very funny.

That's a point Bogeyface think I'll give the cheese a miss? Or sprinkle bit of parmesan on top?

My DS is 32 and says there is nothing to eat in this house. So whats in the large chest freezer, the large fridge freezer, the 3 food cupboards, the bread and cake drawers,the crisps container and the fruit bowl. Why do we go shopping every week and let you buy anything you want ?

When we asked my Mum what's for tea she always said FRESH AIR PIE !

When I'm asked what's for afters, I reply THE WASHING UP !

fiverabbits so they never change then?

Toomuch - that sounds gorgeous! I will have to try that.

No he has been saying it for years. He is diabetic and has to eat regularly and isn't fussy so there is always something to eat so I don't know why he says it. On the other hand my DD is really fussy and if she has the choice of two items she is doing well.

Our Mum used to tell us when we asked what was for tea,
'pigs trotters and oncycollops'
Oncycollops, what the hell they were, I dont know???
Daft thing is I now say it to my two

anewyear.

I never asked what was for tea as ate anything. I was so skinny in those days too .

I've just had hot tomatoes on buttered toast, with pepper. WHY HAS NO-ONE TOLD ME TO TRY THIS BEFORE?
It seems so obvious now.
It is already now my favourite meal.

ewwwwww soggy toast

My DS went shopping with my DD on Wednesday and they spent £147. Twice that day and on Thursday he said there's no food in this house when are going shopping. Tonight after giving him his tea he complained I had given him too much, I can't win can I.

Tomatoes on toast, with poached/fried eggs + HP sauce = train smash.

Heaven when consumed while listening to The News Quiz on R4 at the weekend.

For the tinned tomatoes on toast brigade, have you tried (hot) tinned tomatoes on cheese on toast?

Thats my comfort, quick, lunch of choice.
