Nollaig Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 I only recently discovered pasta I also recently discovered banana chips. (Dried banana covered in chocolate.) Not bad, considering I hate bananas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ooooh we get lychee all the time here.. It's a lychee-overload for sure! Never tried this "sharon fruit" before. I do like Star Fruit though!

Guest ii Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 I also recently discovered banana chips. (Dried banana covered in chocolate.) Not bad, considering I hate bananas. Do you eat cereals? Try tossing these on top of your regular branflakes, really good! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jewell Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 There were quite a few different fruits i tried recently when i went on a detox diet, Bethany. Can't remember the name of them all though. But i was really surprised how many things there were that i'd never even heard of. I want to make it my aim to try as much as possible. I'll give any type of food a go. I tried snails when i went to Paris last years and i thought they were delish! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ophelia Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 Quinoa (I think that's how you spell it). Tried it with a veg curry instead of rice and it was good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nollaig Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 Egg sandwiches. All I had left was an egg and some bread. Wasn't bad actually. Now I'm down to just bread. Roll on shopping tomorrow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charm Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 Roll on shopping tomorrow Snap! I get my shopping on a Wed too! I order it online and Tesco deliver it for me. Costs me less for delivery than it does for diesel to go and get it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Costs me less for delivery than it does for diesel to go and get it! Oh well aren't we fancy. My house is at point A. Town is at point B, roughly a 35 minute walk away (about 1.7 miles). College is roughly in the middle. But my Wednesday morning class is out the other side of the campus, closer to 25 than 15 mins away. So I go to class, then walk to town, get all my shopping, and walk alll the way home again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chrissi Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 I think the "newest" food I discovered was a "Starbar" from Cadburys. Slowly munching my way through British chocolate... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BattyOldMaid Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 Blue viened cheese. My mother used to buy them and I hated the taste, but now appreciate it. I've plucked up the courage to be inventive, by using it in cream sauce instead of the usual cheddar. Delicious. Batty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maureen Posted April 24, 2010 Author Share Posted April 24, 2010 Today I baked some sun-dried tomato bread rolls. They are not difficult to make, but you do need plenty of time, as the dough needs 'to rest'. Well worth the effort though - we ate half of them just out of the oven, and they were great.
