Last year, due to a post I made while feeling decidely mischivous, I decided to bring "Onions for all!" and so managed to confuse a lot of people, not least the one that was dressed as a tomato. This year I plan on continuing this, thus turning it into an annual tradition (That's how it works you know). Please let me know what foodstuff you would most appreciate me bringing.
Also please note that I am cheap so this may not happen.

Rarr. :pirate:

Ah, I liked my onion. Though it did make my sleeping bag smell a bit.

I suggest some form of celery or leek this year

Has this been decided yet? If not, I request lemons. Yes, I know they're not a root vegetable, but they're tasty.

No, No, NO! You don't give Toby ideas like that! It's a really bad plan. He'll only go and bloomin' well do it now.

I do remember taking a bite out of my raw onion last year.

It did not taste that good, although admittedly this was not unexpected :P

Peas, frozen ones, then a bag would go a long way, you could hand them out to strangers as an RAoW (weirdness) they might appreciate it?

Strangely, I agree.

Unfortunately, fish fingers are not so. Though still a little bit more than chips.

Top chefs use forzen peas as they are usually fresher.

Heston Blumenthal is a fan of Bird's Eye frozen peas.

Personally, I grow peas in the cupboard next to my breakfast cereal for cooking!

Can't get fresher than that!

Frozen peas are YUM. We ARE talking about whilst they're still frozen, right??

Although numerous times throughout my life I've taken a handful of them out of the bowl before mum's started to apply any sort of heat to them, only to find she'd already doused them in salt, and so I basically had a handful of salt with a few frozen peas in it. I can still taste the salt now.

I was talking about when they're still frozen. I like them then. My mum used to get very angry because I'd steal a bag of frozen peas from the freezer and then hide. She'd have to buy a new bag every few days.

I say sprouts!

I got in drunk the other day and put some frozen sprouts in the microwave and ate them all up. I was a little ashamed when my faltmate walked in and saw this little episode happening.

Annie, don't ever be ashamed of liking sprouts!
It's a sad society that we live in that treats sprout-lovers as outcasts.

or even . . .SPROUTCASTS! I just thought of that I was typing.

They are amazing. I do love them. I just looked a bit sad when he walked in and I was mortal drunk with a huge bowl of sprouts...

I wish this story wasn't true.

Too much information?

I laughed out loud. Properly out loud. I can't stand sprouts, but it's almost worth trying to like them just to be a "sproutcast"... :lol:
