  1. Someone would have to grow the fields of it. Their neighbours would kick off. The road transport would need bulletproof tarping to make sure you didn't lose any on the verges. Then the jam/wine factories would have to be dead careful with waste. etc etc. Just not worth the risk when you can eat/drink other things that won't ruin someone's drains, foundations etc.
  2. Aye. I'm training myself out of it. Like I trained myself out of ruining steaks.
  3. Supermarkets selling knotweed would be like them selling pufferfish, not worth the liability. Kitchen scraps thrown out for chickens or composted could cause loads of damage.
  4. It's informed user choice. I like hot food piping hot.
  5. I've done it but with slightly poorer results. I reckon yolk-only is more forgiving of excessive heat, which I'm prone to. Whole egg pasta seems safer.
  6. Is it safe to ask the British for advice on unknown land/property ownership in your area?
  7. We judge you regardless. I'm on a raw materials push atm. Had quite a few eggs in so been on fresh pasta, proper yolk sauces etc. Made the bread and the mayonnaise for a BLT yesterday.
  8. lol
  9. Curious where you are in the country?
  10. One of the reasons to grow eucs is to encourage kangaroos. Firstly, they're mint. Secondly, they're large, meaty and slower than a 223.
  11. Half a bottle of wine and half a bag of peanuts here. Had a BLT the size of a half inch socket set for lunch.
  12. Weak-stomached joggercunts. I used to regularly eat mussels harvested from under St Peter's boardwalk with no ill effect. You had to pick the used needles out of course.
  13. Was it not you looking for a bike/quad/wheelbarrow to get kit up the hill?
  14. Have you got anywhere with your hillside transport conundrum?
  15. The carbonara was banging. What does Italy do with all the spare egg whites?
  16. I had a go at a zabaglione with whites, realised my jury-rigged bain-marie was going to end up on the floor, put the mixture straight to the gas and ended up with a pan of fairly grim sugared egg graupel. Binned that, drank the rest of the sherry. All's well that ends well.
  17. Hurry up, someone. The sherry won't last much longer.
  18. I'm about to lash up a carbonara with fresh pasta. That means using four egg yolks and being left with four spare whites. I made zabaglione (under close instruction) years ago and I swear I did it with whites but the internet disagrees with me and says yolks. So what can I do with four egg whites and some sherry? Fold it into a stiff mix and poach was first thought but I fear it will end up a watery mess.
  19. Joking aside, 5thelement is dead right. The answer is to have both the old school tricks and the new school tricks at your disposal and use whatever's best for the job. Sometimes a lanyard and a grimace is the way. Sometimes a load of extra ropes is the way.
  20. No. Genuinely interested.
  21. You explained some fairly major problems with it a few posts up. You clearly understand the nature of property and the impudence of being dictated to but you call for an infinitely funded provision of bureaucrats to dictate to private property owners in your next breath. And money is a weak excuse. There are loads of harmless jobs out there. Do one of those. So why do you consciously choose to put effort into something you know to be harmful?
