So I have just seen an advert for it and it reminded me how much I hate it. Jelly with fruit in it. Why? Why would you ruin jelly by putting fruit (that invariably goes soggy and mushy) in it? Just why? Same goes for yoghurt with fruity bits in it. Makes me feel sick just thinking about it. 😫

What foods do you feel have been ruined worldwide or by someone that you know?

Genuinely amazed by the idea of cutting the bread in half if it's too big for the toaster Shock. So simple. So bloody obvious.

I have spent far far too long hovering over the toaster, anxiously trying to turn my pitta bread round at the perfect moment to get matching toastiness throughout 🙈.

Now I realise I could just cut the bastard thing in half.

This is a game changer.

Jelly Shock I feel sick just thinking about eating it! I'm not just taking about the sweet variety either. It ruins pork pies and cold meat, and lurks on the top of pate insert vomit smiley here

Southern, there is a whole new world of possibilities now!

Ooops! I was very tired last night and had one too many glasses of prosecco obviously! Yes, VanillaSugar, I'm going to have to nc now, aren't I? Blush

I love cheesy beanos, salad cream on chilli con carne (dp puts far too much chilli in), fried egg with onion smothered in tomato ketchup, egg mayo on pizza, mince and potatoes mixed up with lashings of tomato ketchup, pineapple on gammon steak.
Taxi for one I am going now 😀

I am eating peanut butter chocolate for breakfast since I'm sick.

Hashtag winning!

BeingATwatItsABingThing · 06/09/2016 20:34

Mayonnaise with chips. Work of the devil.

Fish pie without cheese on top of the mash. Pointless.

JohnCheese · 08/09/2016 20:14

Lots that have been already mentioned.
Pineapple on pizza. Ditto for sweercorn - ffs it is so wrong on pizza. Ditto for chicken too. Wrong.

Anything with fruit is NOT dessert.

Porridge. Food of the devil. Feck the 'good for cholesterol' stuff.

All this almond/rice/soya/whatever milks. All bike and wrong. Drink your coffee black.

Cupcakes. Christ.

Coriander. Horrible smokey gone-off taste that destroys everything it's sprinkled on.

Chips and gravy. Vile. And as for mushy peas, . You know they add green colouring to those chippy mushy peas? That's how cooked they are.

Agree with salted caramel. Too much going on. Leave the gorgeous caramel.

I raise your flower-pot bread and give you bread cooked in an old (washed, afaik) tin of tomatoes. I kid you not. The bread in an old tin. Yes.

BeingATwatItsABingThing · 08/09/2016 20:39

I don't mind sweet corn on pizza but I would rather just cheese extra cheese, a bit more cheese and just a sprinkling of cheese and tomato. Not slices of tomato!
