Chips with mushy peas vs chips wit' curry sauce

Why though? Is it the taste? The sensation? The fact that you conquered the limitations of human forbearance?

 

As an infant, I spent 7 months in India with my Grandparents (Grandad worked on the Indian Railway). Gran could (and did) make her own Phaal - the first mouthful would burn the roof of your mouth, but after that you didn't worry too much.

 

Could you actually taste the food still?

 

Oh strewth, you're asking me to remember something like that more than sixty odd years ago ??? I was four years old !!! - I honestly can't remember, BUT I always liked my food and all our family had a 'thing' about wasting food, so I guess I ate it all up, and if I was like what I am now, would have come back for seconds !!!

 

I like chips with mushy peas but it must be with gravy.
Curry goes with rice.

 

I do like things a little spicy but there’s hot and then there’s FIRE. The only time I had really really hot (according to my sensibilities anyway), was for medicinal purposes. My sinuses were really bad. Felt like my eyes were being squeezed from my head when I even tried to speak. Took a wander to the local Chinese noodle bar and dowsed my plate with some of their chilli oil. Sorted me out in no time.

 

Zen matey try a little Wasabi paste on a beef sandwich !!!

 

I will be having my fish and chips on the beach tomorrow and watch the Airshow.

 

Don't forget the pickled onions Candy darlin'

 

No thanks. Lol

 

Can't eat fish 'n chips without pickled onions Candy darlin' - just not done !!!

 

I will have a shake of sand. Lol

 

Old fashioned fish 'n chip shops used to have two large jars on the marble counter, one contained pickled onions, t'other contained pickled eggs and on the shelf behind the counter there was a third jar that contained pickled gherkins.

 

I used to be scared of gherkins as a child.lol

 

Pussy cats are too !!!

 

I will ask Rainbow. Hahaha
