Why is it that the chips at my local McDonald's are scarcely ever properly cooked? Why is something so simple so difficult?
Indeed, why does Britain as a whole find chips such a problem? The usual approach seems to be to take a spud, slice it into no more than 8 chunks, briefly introduce said chunks to some fat, then call them chips.
The Frogs have the right idea with their "allumettes".
Got an Indian takeway tonight, which reminded me that these meals, while they may be tasty, are always about half as much again as you really want to eat. There can't be far short of 1,000 calories in one. If you shared one between two people it would make two acceptable, if a touch frugal, meals. Surely this must be one of the major causes of obesity in this country. Isn't it time restaurants and takeaways were made to display calorie contents of meals?
