The Unstoppable LUNCH Thread!

^ yes!! How funny you mention that.

In Israel people freeze fresh dates and grapes and eat 'em just like that...
most excellent on a hot summer day

 

[Shpongled]

I just tried for them first time last week. I now have grapes in my freezer

 

[JenniferGentle]

Oooh I love dates. I want some now. I love freezing bananas when they're really ripe and then hacking up a coconut and using the water/milk and some meat putting it in a blender with the bananas and it's a tasty smoothie type of thing, it's so good. I am going to pop some bananas in the freezer right now haha.

Lamb burger from a local "greek" restaurant. Fucking great, tasted like a massive kebab. 9/10

 

[Dead_Lioness]

^ Jennifer: the dates are especially great frozen if they are in the fresh-state not the dried...
In Israel there are like a bazillion palm trees with dates that grow wild, so people just collect them fresh
but here I think you can find them in Whole Foods or maybe Trader Joes in the fresh state and in season: those are the BEST to freeze!
Fantastic on a hot day!

 

[WhiteBeastofWotan]

Ugh, i'm getting some disgusting smelling burps though.

Late lunch/dinner - went to a pub and ordered:

Battered Haggis with Glenmorangie sauce, a side of salad and an Irn Bru.

Medium-done Sirloin steak, onion rings, mushrooms, side of some chips, another Irn Bru.

Finished with a Jameson Liqueur Coffee. It was pretty good but I had to add sugar.

Overall 9.5/10

No pics cos I'm terrible.

[WhiteBeastofWotan]

There wasn't really anything to eat in the house today, and I sarded going out, so i ended up having to eat some fat-free hot dogs that were in the fridge :zombie: 4/10.

I had Haggis, Neeps and Tatties the other day, with Irn Bru and bread and butter puddin' for dessert.

I like to rock the traditionals sometimes.
