Great British Menu 2025 Thread 2 - From beige sludge to poncey nonsense, but is any of it banquetworthy?

[Sunbird24]

The drama continues…

Vegan cheese. Blue cheese. Vegan blue cheese. Jesus

I've not heard mushrooms, roasted cauliflower or even claggy so far, so it's a winner already!

Benjamin Zephaniah loved potatoes and samosas, Percy Shaw loved crisps, Cilla Black loved Oxo cubes.

They are just making it up at this point. Christopher Marlowe loved Chewits, Lady Godiva was a big fan of asparagus ..... You could say anything.

How to make blue cheese even worse.

So, is the bacteria in cheese vegan? Wouldn't have thought so.....

😎😎

Well I hope no one loves fruit pastilles, because they appear to have changed something and they taste like soap. 🤮

I like the Waitrose St Clements ones, but then they only have a bit of orange and lemon zest in with the spice and dried friut, so not too outlandish.

Cheese hot cross buns can get in the sea...

I do like that he pronounced Julian of Norwich as 'julienne.' You're not finely chopping her up and putting her in a soup, Harry.

Evening all.

I bought some Waitrose apricot and ginger ones today but I have yet to try them. They'd better be nice because they were 3 quid.

I expect it's faux-bacteria making pretend blue veining....

I cannot stand all them shite ads popping up all over. Jeez Mumsnet

This feels like proper GBM at last

That’s what I say to myself when I burn something. It’s authentic

Barry Goole is popular this series.

Roasting onions ilove roasted onions

Benjamin Z was a Rastafarian. Just lace it all with weed and serve Pringles for every subsequent course.

Edited to remove weird punctuation

I know someone who had fingerprint authentication on all their devices and who sandpapered their fingerprints off while doing DIY.

The ‘Disable Ad Blocker’ popup is irritating me cos it keeps shouting “by parents for parents” at me - cheers MN, just rub that in why don’t you?

It’s not enough to make me turn off my ad blocker though!

Ooh that would annoy me too

How do you manganite that

Only on TV cookery shows is a whole samosa too much food.

Now that samosa looked like food. Not something shoehorned into a vegan facsimile. Not sure about the 2 elements together, though ...
