Porridge

[Beatmonkey]

I've just deiscoverd how good porridge is after years of ignoreing it. But made with milk, sugar and honey porridge is one of the best breakfasts you can get, keeps you feeling full for fucking agers as well. Any other fans out there?

[ferg]

never stir another guys porridge

[laurennoodles]

i love porridge. it fills you up so good!

[megadaisy]

it reduces your cholestorol too

[WaveyRaveyDavey]

I can (and have) lived on it!

Don't add sugar tho' - honey or dried fruit (currants, raisins etc.) for sweeetness!

[Sperge]

Damn. I thought this was going to be about the classic comedy series.

I guess Calla will be along shortly to tell us all how crap porridge is...

for me it's got to be made with milk and with golden syrup drizzled over the top... yum!

Porridge

[festival jacs]

Not really my thing, a bit plain. I'm into muesli and yoghurt, I add my own chopped fruit (dried fruit is sweetened!) and sunflower and flax seeds. It's the best breakfast in the world!

[Jemo]

Porridge then mash A banana in it!

YEAHH BABY YEAHHHHHH

[Sperge]

Don't stir another man's porridge with your banana!

I've got a Chinese restaurant menu with duck porridge, pork & preserved egg porrige and fish or beef or chicken porrige?!?!?!?! Havn't had the courage to order any of them. Any ideas wtf they are/are like?

[xkejjer]

its fucking horrible, if you serve porridge at any mediterranean restaurant in any mediterranean country you'll get projectile vomiting on the waiter's sorry face as tips. thats not food, for fuck's sake. we're used to succulent rabbit in wine sauce, fillets of beef in pepper sauce, buttered duck and that kind of shit, not porridge. yuck.

I like 1 Weetabix/Oatibix, upright, with muesli stabiliser, fruit'n'fibre on top of that, then crunchy nut corn flakes as a topping. Ingredients can be interchanged with coco pops, chocolate corn flakes, bran flakes, honey hoops, whatever. Sometimes I even put mixed seeds and hawaiian fruit mix on top of that lot for extra fibre.

Still can't beat a massive bowl of porage with a tablespoon of golden syrup to keep you full, happy and warm all morning in the cold months. Oh and anyone who adds water to their porage is wrong.

Breakfast ftw!

Well luckily porridge isn't restaurant food then isn't it. It's a fuck load of stodge full of goodness that keeps you full for fucking agers with the better kinds of energy. It isn't attempting to be fine dineing that would just be silly.

[xkejjer]

it's good yeah, but for your body only, i'm talking taste wise. taste wise its in the lower echelons of the taste scale, and that is all that matters in food.

[ferg]

i think you might find yourself in the lower echelons of subjectivity my friend

[xkejjer]

oh yeah yeah bla bla do we have to be politically correct in food as well now? bla bla yeah yeah

[Petch]

A failure to communicate maybe.... porridge on its own is disgusting, add milk, or, sugar, butter, honey etc... and it is yummy, if you don't agree, you can tongue my testicles.

[xkejjer]

they're probably tastier than porridge...

Have you been to Scotland in the winter, xkejjer? If you did, you might understand why they eat stodgy food like porridge.

Mind you, that's still no excuse for deep-fried Mars bars...

[xkejjer]

i've never been to scotland no.. but fried mars bars is something i'd like to try.. i must stress that i dont give a shit about healthy eating andd as i'm a sweettooth, i would liek to see how they do them.

i know theyre very easy to make, but on the other hand i'd like to try it in scotland for the first time.. it might be a nice thing to do, going to scotland for 3 or 4 days after next year's glade
