If you were a hungover 20 something, would you prefer a roast dinner or a nice takeaway?

I want a roast but I'm guessing they'll want a takeaway from their favourite Italian later

What did you prefer at 23?

Deffo a takeaway

Deadringer · 09/04/2023 18:08

For me a takeaway at any age. My 20 year old hates roasts so takeaway for her too.

HandShoe · 09/04/2023 18:08

Takeaway - I don’t think I could have eaten a roast when hungover (but then I’m not a big fan of them normally to be fair)

SiobhanSharpe · 09/04/2023 18:17

Could be neither, could be either, it depends on a lot of stuff. The degree of hungover-ness and when they last ate, what caused the hangover -- lager/cocktails/guinness, whether they'd been sick of not. Lots of variables.
FWIW, DS could have clamped his had dramatically over his mouth at the very idea of food and bolted for the bog, or wolfed down 3/4 of a roast chicken meal for 4.

Crisps / McDonald’s / pizza and lemonade.

Takeaway on the sofa

avocadotofu · 09/04/2023 18:41

Absolutely take away.

Oxborn · 09/04/2023 18:58

Definitely Chinese

MissMaple82 · 09/04/2023 19:04

Takeaway

SirSamVimesCityWatch · 09/04/2023 19:12

Dammit, now I want a takeaway.

cptartapp · 09/04/2023 19:17

My twenty year old says takeaway.

Takeaway won, but he hardly touched it

Well I ate all of mine, OP, which I'm blaming entirely on you!

As a 20yr old I would've had

KFC for breakfast (at midday)
Chinese for dinner
Lots of 10p crisps
"Full fat" coke.

And I'd still be slim as a rake the next day. Sigh.

Haha yup!

Oneglassisnotenough · 09/04/2023 22:30

Take away for me. Usually some form of a burger with chips and at least two cans of full fat coke to wash it down.
