DumbledoresGirl · 10/06/2006 21:00

What 200 miles away? Nah, I will just leave it to (not) rot I think.

But next time you are in a supermarket with nothing better to do (!) take a look at the pasta sauce jarsa and see if you can find which one I bought. I know it wasn't anything fancy.

charliecat · 10/06/2006 21:04

Erm...did you not recycle the jar? You should!

LadySherlockofLGJ · 10/06/2006 21:05

Was it a Loyd Grossman one ?

They appear to be fairly inoffensive.\link{http://www.chivers.ie/img/brand_pic_loyd.jpg\Here}

I don't add sugar to mine, but I know people that do

DumbledoresGirl · 10/06/2006 21:07

PMSL WelshBoris! Lovely!

Charile Cat - I would have done - I don't let all standards slip when on holiday, but the place we were in does not have convenient recycling facilities and there wasn't even room to swing a cat in the car on the way home.

LGJ - definitely not Loyd Grossman

moondog · 10/06/2006 21:09

I steer clear of supermarkets,but yes,will check them out when I go.
Lol WB. Bloody scary though isn't it??

What riles me is all the people who extoll the virtues of rustling up a little something from scratch in 10 mins. flat are the ones who seem to be peddling processed shit.
That gurning Harriot bloke has some foul looking couscous,Jamie Oliver goes on about that Blue Parrot crap,and the one with the mashed in face (double barrelled name-little fat bloke)has some crap out,although can't remember what exactly.

moondog · 10/06/2006 21:10

That looks ok F&Z (but still prefer to do my own)
Sugar a must-rounds out the taste.
Dollop of marmalade works very well too.

DumbledoresGirl · 10/06/2006 21:10

Anthony Worrel Thompson?

WelshBoris · 10/06/2006 21:11

tesco and asda are culprits aswell

throw colourful packaging on it and call it "good for kids" and they think they are doing their bit

and dont start me off on mcdonalds and their fruit bags

moondog · 10/06/2006 21:13

That's the arse i was referring too.
Yes WB.And people fall for it.
My all time fave is those little jars of water they flog to clueless women for their babies for about 50 p a go.

WelshBoris · 10/06/2006 21:15

yes JARS of water ha ha ha

the amount of rubbish they sell in the asda baby aisle is ridiculous.

I tried and failed to get my friends to make their own food for their LOs

Me - "just give them what you have but mashed up til they get older"

them- "but this jar says its organic"

Me- "but its in a fecking jar you lazy bint"

(i did actually say that once but in my defence I was drunk)

DumbledoresGirl · 10/06/2006 21:16

Ah you guys are so completely missing the point.

moondog · 10/06/2006 21:17

Wassat then DG?

DumbledoresGirl · 10/06/2006 21:18

The choice isn't between eating a jar of pasta sauce and eating your own lovingly prepared from scratch sauce. It is between eating pasta sauce from a jar and a pot noodle. Now which is better?

moondog · 10/06/2006 21:23

Oh Pot Noodle
No doubt about it.

Wink
charliegirl25 · 10/06/2006 21:25

would it not cost a lot less if you shopped somewhere other than sainsburys? I thought they were more expensive than somewhere like asdas.

EmmyLou · 10/06/2006 21:26

Moondog are you serious about the marmalade???

Do add a little sugar to tomato based sauces sometimes but never strayed into the preserves...

jenk1 - please don't let them get away with it at home. You can't control what your DH buys when he's out but all that processed grungey slop Sad. If YOU don't like it then change it. Arguments in favour of unhealthy diets won't really stick, will they.

WelshBoris · 10/06/2006 21:26

is it a spicy curry pot noodle?

moondog · 10/06/2006 21:26

Yes Em. Try it. Smile
WB,am heaving at the thought....

JanH · 10/06/2006 21:27

Lidl pasta sauce has nothing in it but food.

moondog · 10/06/2006 21:27

Tablespoonful

Jan,the epithet 'food' covers a multitude of sins....

EmmyLou · 10/06/2006 21:27

How much marmalade moondog?

FrannyandZooey · 10/06/2006 21:28

I fancy a pot noodle now
