<mumbling> And even if I'm tortured, I'd never admit how much I loved that vinegar on chips and those yummy sandwich spreads (Ploughman), hot buttered scones, porridge with milk and honey, salty butter... no siree, I'll never admit it - never </mumbling>

Blood pudding, AKA "Black Pudding" lovelly jubbely <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />
And what may i ask is wrong with Pork Scratchings?, goes down well with a pint or two of Strongbow.
What the hell are "Twisties" never heard of them!!
Where you are is it Hop country, lots of Breweries?? Darling buds of May stuff?? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/think.gif" alt="" />

I must say - the booze does agree with me (that is a bad thing....)

YUCK!!!!! Cooked pig skin...no thank you, there are better snacks tahn that.

Twisties (i think) made out of marmite funnily enough - kinda like a pretzel? Make sence? I may have got the name wrong.

Oh you mean Twiglets... and yes they are covered in a yeast extract, quite scrumptious <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/kissyou.gif" alt="" />

Twisties are a cheese snack. Oddly they were originally designed as a breakfast cereal. Cheesy crunchy things with milk and sugar in the morning??? Ick.

"But, for the most part it is not bad...but some of it makes my stomach turn!" carrie

which is why asians can never be included in fear factor. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/delight.gif" alt="" />

before anyone flame me, fyi, i AM asian & half chinese at that. so i know what kinds of stuff asians eat. but then, certain race or cultures may think snails are yucky stuff or cows are sacred or hormonally enhanced (estrogen overload, & they're wondering why they're so many gay dudes nowadays) chicken is a big no-no.

carrie, just stick to fish & chips with newspaper printouts. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />

Carrie try a Beef Wellington if you can find a descent restaurant, good English grub. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wave.gif" alt="" />

rather big sig, no? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/offtopic.gif" alt="" />

Shall i get rid <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/think.gif" alt="" />

Soooo...an intresting turn of events...

One: My doctor from Canada phones me today ($4/min...) and told me that they had foundd A cells in my female test today...
Of course that made me cry...could be cancerous...and i have to get another test ASAP. My medical insurance does not cover that, so i may have to pay for it if i stay.
Two: My old boss gave my sister a job today (she is back in Canada) and i have been corresponding with him via e-mail, he wants me back as soon as my flights land...so i may be going back earlier.
