Food stuffs that have the least amount of calories in as possible

May 23, 2011

Due to my recent holiday binge eating I’m currently working on a damage limitation exercise, so I’ve been trying lot of food and drink stuffs that fit into my mantra Operation Try And Eat As Little As Possible Whilst Enjoying Your Food, which is not easy at all I tell you. Russian Standard Gold Vodka is my favourite [...]

Mixed Bean Chilli

May 18, 2011

As you may have noticed, it’s been a few weeks since I’ve blogged. First came Easter, then came the Royal Wedding, then came a holiday and before I knew it time had flown away with me. But in the words of Take That I’m now Back For Good. So…I went on holiday for a friends [...]

I did something bad. Very bad…

April 6, 2011

I did something very, very bad at the weekend. It wasn’t my fault, honestly. As you may know I’ve given up chocolate and crisps for lent. Please see below for a confession on what happened at the weekend – I am not proud of myself. 3 weeks into lent and a night of karaoke was [...]

My secret crush on Heston

March 30, 2011

Did you watch the recent Mission Impossible series with Heston Blumenthal? I did. And now I have a massive, secret crush on the whacky Chef. Although I guess it doesn’t count as secret if I post it up on the internet. In the four-parter Heston visited places such as Alder Hey Children’s Hospital and a [...]

Snack time

March 18, 2011

As mentioned last week I have given up chocolate and crisps for lent. I’m still missing chocolate and the cravings, quite frankly, keep on getting worse rather than better. Interestingly however, I’m not missing crisps as much as I thought I would. This blog is a little crisp obsessed. If you’re a regular reader I guess I’m [...]

Why did I give up chocolate for lent?

March 11, 2011

Could someone please remind me. Not for a religious reason to be honest, I just fancied testing myself by giving up chocolate AND crisps. I actually gave both of these things up for lent a few years ago and remember the first week being the worst, and boy was I right. I work in food [...]

Request for permission

March 9, 2011

As a ketchup fan (you’ve seen the name of the blog), I’ve just purchased Heinz’s new limited edition Balsamic Vinegar flavour, which I have to say I am really looking forward to trying. What I find more interesting, however, is the fact that Heinz has chosen to sell an initial 3,000 bottles of the stuff [...]

The night I ate breast milk ice-cream for dinner

February 25, 2011

So… last night for dinner I ate breast milk ice-cream. That is not a sentence I ever thought I would write. When I’ve mentioned this to most people their instant reaction has been one of horror, you can physically see the repulsion on their faces. Quite right too, as this was my initial reaction when [...]

Heart Warming Soup

February 15, 2011

I love Covent Garden’s current Soup of the Month. Their ‘Warming Soup,’ in association with the British Heart Foundation, aswell as being chunky vegetable and lentil flavour, is also my current flavour of the month. Why I like this soup in particular at the moment: – It is on offer in Sainsbury’s stores for something random like £1.17. You [...]

Moti Mahal

February 15, 2011

What with Michel Le Roux’s Service and Mary Portas’ Secret Shopper TV programmes, I feel like the word service is one of those buzz words flinging around at the moment. So whilst I go on about how important customer service is, especially within the food industry, please note that I have been a strong believer in this for years, before all these buzz words [...]
